Hi Summoners, Today I bring my favourite midlaner, the god of backdoors, xPeke.
Enrique Cedeño Martinez (born April 24, 1992), usually known
by his gaming handle xPeke.
xPeke first came to prominence in
2011 as a member of myRevenge, winning the Intel Extreme Masters Season V League of Legends invitational. That
myRevenge squad was picked up by Fnatic, with whom xPeke won the Season 1 League of Legends World Championship held at DreamHack. In 2013, he was a part of the Fnatic squad that
played in the first ever split of League of Legends Championship Series
Europe, eventually
winning both the Spring and Summer Split, with him being named the Summer Split
playoffs MVP. At IEM Season VI Katowice xPeke backdoored SK Gaming in a play regarded as one of the most
iconic in LoL history
due to how he accomplished it under pressure, near death, and while the enemy
team was about to destroy his own base. In 2014, he won another Spring Split title with
Fnatic, but lost in the Summer Split finals to Alliance. After the Season 4 World Championship, xPeke
announced his departure from Fnatic with the intention to create a new team. On
December 7, 2014, the formation of Origen was officially announced, with xPeke
being in the mid laner and manager role. In its first season as a professional team, Origen won the Europe Challenger Series title and
finished second in the Summer Split of the European LCS. xPeke and Origen qualified
for the Season 5 World Championship, having qualified through the regional gauntlet. At Worlds they got to the semi-finals of the
playoff bracket before losing to SK Telecom T1. Overall, xPeke had the highest Creep Score
(CS) of any player in the tournament.
