Who is the Greatest?

Tyler Steinkamp aka Tyler1 is a popular Twitch streamer and is well known for playing League of Legends. He has over 3.8 million followers on the platform. Tyler reached the rank Gold 1 earlier in September and at the end of the month, he reached Diamond 1. After that, reaching the highest level was a bit hard for Tyler because by mid-october, he had lowered his way into Diamond 1 but then got up into Diamond 2 again.

During one of his recent live broadcasts he streamed for 16 hours, losing only two games out of 24. Because of this, Tyler1 won his 4th promotion series game spot in the master tier of League of Legends. During the game when he was about to win the last round before reaching the master tier, he exclaimed typing into the chat; “It doesn’t matter who I play. It doesn’t matter what role I play. I am the greatest f**king player alive. Period”. He then waited for the master tier’s badge to celebrate.

He played 17 consecutive games using the character Cho’Gath before switching over to the character Olaf for the final two games of the series. Tyler1’s highest win-rate among his five most-played champs is Cho’Gath with a rate of insane 67% while his next best is Olaf at 57%. It’s a big achievement for the streamer who was banned permanently from the game in 2016 for toxic behavior. However, he is now sponsored by Korean org T1 in one of the most perfect player-org matches the League has ever seen.
