Rhuckz played in 2022 for Fnatic’s Superleague academy, FnaticTQ, where he won the league at the Spring Split. Rhuckz also had to make an emergency trip to Mexico to play the Worlds Play In with Fnatic after Hylissang tested positive for COVID, preventing him from joining the team on the first day.
The Portuguese support beat Evil Geniuses and Chiefs Esports and was with Fnatic as a substitute throughout Worlds.
Rhuckz will make his debut in the top European competition after winning several regional leagues and European Masters finals and will be the first Portuguese support to debut in the tournament.
Previously we reported that LEC will change its format for 2023.
