FORG1VEN

On the 14th of October 2013, FORG1VEN was announced as the new AD Carry of Copenhagen Wolves by his teammate Youngbuck.[6] Over the next month and a half they won various tournaments in the European semi-pro scene: the Riot Turkey International Invitational Tournament 2, the ASUS ROG Paris Games Week 2013, and the IEM Season 8 Cologne Amateur tournament.

In December of 2013, Copenhagen Wolves participated in the Promotion Tournament for the 2014 Spring European League of Legends Championship Series. They went undefeated in the Challenger Stage, qualifying to the Promotion Stage for a match against the bottom team from the previous EU LCS split, Meet Your Makers. Although they lost the first game in the series, they came back to win three in a row and get the 3 - 1 victory, qualifying to the EU LCS.

Despite being newly-promoted, Copenhagen Wolves spent most of the split in mid-table positions. FORG1VEN impressed individually, having the highest Creep Score per minute in the league (except Gambit substitute Nukeduck who only played 2 games) and being named the 2nd All-Pro Team ADC. The Wolves ultimately finished in 6th place with a 13-15 record, qualifying to the playoffs. There, consecutive 2 - 1 losses to Alliance and Gambit Gaming meant that they would have to participate in the upcoming Promotion Tournament to secure their spot in the Summer Split. On the 25th of April they faced the 3rd placed team from the Challenger Series, Denial eSports, and won 3 - 1.

Those turned out to be FORG1VEN's last games with the Copenhagen Wolves. Two weeks later, on the 8th of May, Greek team Different Dimension announced FORG1VEN had joined them as their new AD Carry.[7] 3 days later Copenhagen Wolves confirmed that FORG1VEN was no longer their starting AD Carry, having been replaced by former substitute Woolite.[8]

In spring 2015, FORG1VEN played for SK Gaming, which was the top European team for most of that season.[2] He established several statistical records and was the MVP of the 2015 Spring EU LCS Split while a member of SK.[9] However, after claims of mismanagement and worsening relations with teammates, he was replaced on the active roster in favour of Adrian "CandyPanda" Wübbelmann.[2]

FORG1VEN requested a transfer and subsequently left SK Gaming before the start of the 2015 Summer European LCS split and joined Gambit Gaming, becoming their star player.[10][9] His play for Gambit led them to a 7–9 record and into a three-way tie for the last playoff spot.[9] However, he was suspended by Riot Games for four competitive games in July 2015 for "toxic behavior" in public competitive play, receiving a harsher penalty because of an April 2014 incident in which he was fined for similar behaviour.[9] The ban hurt Gambit Gaming, which was unable to secure visas for its preferred replacement quickly enough and used Moopz as a replacement for their last two games of the regular season, both of which were losses.[11] On August 24, 2015, Gambit Gaming decided to replaced FORG1VEN at AD Carry for the 2015 EU LCS Spring Promotion with Kristoffer "P1noy" Albao Lund Pedersen.[12]

Gambit Gaming subsequently sold its spot in the LCS to Team Vitality, FORG1VEN was received numerous offers from other LCS teams before settling on H2k-Gaming.[2] On 25 February 2016, Tzortziou announced that he would miss the remainder of the 2016 Spring EU LCS split, for which H2k was then in a tie for first, as well as the 2016 Summer EU LCS and the 2016 World Championship in order to fulfill Greek military service requirements.[13][14][15] However, after talks with the Greek government, on March 3 H2k announced that FORG1VEN had been given a temporary deferment from service.[15]

According to former H2k teammate Jankos, even though FORG1VEN was a skilled player with good mechanics, he took losses against teams with players he considered inferior such as Rekkles personally, and negatively impacted the squad's teamwork by blaming his teammates.[16] In April 2016, FORG1VEN left H2k, and although his in-game play no longer fit the team, he maintained good relations with his former teammates and team management.[2] He initially said that he would not play the upcoming summer split, and planned to return in the 2017 Spring EU split.[17]

FORG1VEN joined Origen in May 2016 for that year's Summer EU LCS, but his individualistic, communication-heavy playstyle clashed with fellow star player Glenn "Hybrid" Doornenbal's team-oriented style, which led to poor results for Origen in the first week of competition.[18][19] On June 7, FORG1VEN announced on his Facebook profile that he was planning to stop playing League of Legends because of a lack of motivation and a preference for playing Overwatch.[20][21] He also characterized his experience with Origen management as a "breach of trust".[10] On June 8, 2016 FORG1VEN was removed from the Origen active roster, and inability to find a replacement for FORG1VEN prompted team owner and former player XPeke to step into his role.[19][22]

In July 2016, FORG1VEN returned to H2k-Gaming as a substitute player on their roster.[10] He will be on the starting roster for the final week of the season due to Aleš "Freeze" Kněžínek's wrist injury.

FORG1VEN played for H2k-Gaming at the 2016 League of Legends World Championship, and was one of the top players at the tournament.[23] They were placed in Group C and got 1st place in it after defeating Chinese champions Edward Gaming in a tiebreaker, qualifying to the quarterfinals.[24] At the quarterfinals, they swept Albus NoX Luna, the LoL Continental League champions, 3 - 0.[25] His team was eliminated by Samsung Galaxy 3–0 in the semifinals.[26]

On the 3rd of November 2016, FORG1VEN announced that his contrcct with H2k-Gaming had expired and that he was exploring his possibilities for the 2017 spring split.[27]

On the 31st of March 2017 Different Dimension announced the return of FORG1VEN as their Marksman.[28] They participated in the LoL Greek Championship Season 2, finishing 4th in the regular season with 10 wins and 4 losses, qualifying for the playoffs.[29] There, they beat Team Arsenal 3-0 in the quarterfinals, lost to eventual champions Greek Regenesis 3-1 in the semifinals, and lost to defending champions Instinct Esports 2-0 in the 3rd place match, finishing 4th overall.[30]

During FORG1VEN's stint in Different Dimension, the team also participated in the [ESL (company)|ESL]] South East Europe Championship Season 5. After sweeping the group stage by winning all 5 games, they qualified to the LAN finals in Bulgaria. There, 2 consecutive 2-0 sweeps, first against Serbian team Instinct eSports in the semifinals and then again against Bulgarian team GPlay.bg in the final, crowned Different Dimension as the winners, without having lost a single game.[31]

Shortly after the end of LoL Greek Championship Season 2, WLGaming announced FORG1VEN as part of their roster for the GameAthlon 4 LAN tournament.[32] They won the tournament, defeating Panathinaikos eSports 2-1 in the final.

On the 9th of April 2018 it was announced that FORG1VEN had rejoined Origen to participate in the newly-founded EU Masters competition. Despite the setback of losing their very first game in the tournament, Origen recovered and were crowned champions after sweeping IlluminaR Gaming 3-0 at the grand final in Leicester.[33]
