On his fourth account, Tyler1, one of Twitch’s biggest names known for his League of Legends content, attained Challenger recently. He just played games in the mid-lane this time.
After achieving Challenger status, the streamer requested that Twitch and Riot modify the Twitch banner image to reflect “the face of League of Legends.” While this did not happen, Riot did honor him by changing the profile image of the official League of Legends Twitter account to a photo of him earlier this evening.
Twitch hasn’t said anything about its plans to pay tribute to the streamer, but there’s still a potential that something similar will appear on the platform.
Tyler1’s face is on Tibbers, and Annie, his mid-lane champion of choice for his run to Challenger, is also in the image. Tyler1 was perfect in 64 of the 157 games he played while playing Annie, according to op.gg.
Fizz and Irellia are popular champions for the streamer. Only support stands in his path now that he’s completed mid, top, jungle, and AD carry all the way to Challenger rank. Tyler is likely to postpone his ascent until next season, but after completing the mid-lane challenge in just two months, Tyler will have the rest of the season to relax.
