Steven “Hans Sama” Liv started his career with the spotlight shining on him brighter than most. After only one split in the EU LCS Challenger Series, the French ADC was being touted as "the next big thing." A Draven player at heart, Hans Sama dominated the competition mechanically, dazzling viewers and Misfits Gaming alike.
He got his first taste of international competition at the 2017 World Championship where he came up just shy of upsetting one of the greatest teams on the planet: SK Telecom T1. After that, the expectations for the young AD Carry were sky high and he continued to deliver highlight after highlight in the 2018 EU LCS Spring Split, even if his teammates couldn’t quite follow suit. He’s got another chance to artfully deconstruct his opposition as he sets his sight on the EU LCS crown and a fresh shot at the world’s best later this year.
