Verified Timeline
Lore & Background
Santorin's journey through the North American scene was marked by significant roster shifts and high-stakes outcomes. After winning the 2015 Spring NA LCS with Team SoloMid, he finished second in the Summer split of that same year. By December 14, 2015, he had been announced for Team Huma to compete in the North American League of Legends Challenger Series. However, financial instability plagued the organization, leading to his sale to Ember on February 26, 2016. His time with NRG Esports concluded after a 9th place finish in the 2016 Summer NA LCS regular season. This poor standing led to losses in the subsequent relegation matches, forcing him to leave the team and marking a definitive end to that chapter of his competitive run.
In Their Own Story
The timeline of Santorin's career is defined by specific dates and tournament outcomes. He arrived at Team SoloMid in November 2014, quickly making an impact by winning the 2015 Spring NA LCS title. The team followed this with a runner-up finish in the 2015 Summer NA LCS. As 2016 approached, he moved to Team Huma on December 14, 2015, but the team's financial issues resulted in his transfer to Ember just weeks later on February 26, 2016. Later that year, playing for NRG Esports, Santorin saw his team secure a 5th place finish in the 2016 Spring NA LCS regular season and place 5-6th in the playoffs. The year ended on a low note when NRG finished 9th in the 2016 Summer NA LCS regular season, leading to relegation match losses that caused Santorin to depart the organization.
Reader's Guide
Santorin's professional record is anchored by his time with Team SoloMid and subsequent moves through the Challenger Series and lower-tier LCS play. His primary achievement remains the 2015 Spring NA LCS championship won with TSM, where he played alongside a roster that also secured second place in the Summer split of the same year. In the following year, he navigated the instability of Team Huma before joining Ember due to financial constraints. His time at NRG Esports saw mixed results: a 5th place regular season and a 5-6th playoff finish in Spring 2016, followed by a disastrous Summer run where they finished 9th and lost their promotion matches for the 2017 Spring NA LCS.
