League of Legends streamer Maksymilian ‘Drututt’ Przychodzień has unveiled his bizarre roster for the 2026 NLC season.
The EMEA Regional League for the UK and Nordic countries is hurting after three-time champions Los Ratones confirmed they’re leaving the NLC.
While Marc ‘Caedrel’ Lamont may be gone, another streamer is filling the gap as Drututt has brought in his streamer friend Brandon ‘Forsen’ Wolfgang.
The amateur will start his pro career as the jungler for “4 SWINES & A BUM.”
The pro leagues are not ready for us.

Excited to announce that I am joining the NLC with the BEST and MOST stacked roster up to date.

Swedish streamer Forsen is very low-ranked, at least by competitive standards.
Forsen is currently ranked in Platinum 3, which is only one tier above Gold. There’s Emerald, Diamond, Master, GrandMaster, and Challenger all above that.
As NLC caster Adrian ‘Jamada’ Wharlton-Thorne points out, Riot Games’ rules state that competitors need to be ranked Diamond 3 or above.
That would mean that technically, Forsen would need to gain around 1,000 LP in a rather short period of time.
Fun and jokes aside how are we getting Forsen 1k LP in like 12 days considering ya know he's plat 3 😭😭😭 https://t.co/8Rf0oX2aA0 pic.twitter.com/ywiiEUg8ir

Meanwhile, streamer Drututt will also be competing on his own team, but is at least a Challenger-ranked player.
In fact, in 2025, Drututt managed to reach Challenger in all five roles on EUW, becoming only the second player on the server to do so.
It took the Polish content creator 1570 games to complete the impressive accomplishment.
Perhaps that is why Drututt is confident his team can succeed in the NLC as he claims:
“The pro leagues are not ready for us.
“Excited to announce that I am joining the NLC with the BEST and MOST stacked roster up to date.”
Drututt brings multiple pros out of retirement

Following the Los Ratones route of a content-led team competing in the NLC, Drututt has managed to get multiple ex-pros just like Caedrel did.
Most surprisingly of all is North American pro Eugene ‘Pobletor’ Park, who will seemingly compete from the US with dreadful ping.
Pobelter is a three-time LCS champion and turned down the chance to play for Disguised as he claimed he was retired.
Though he did play for Near Airport, the now-disbanded content team created by Peter ‘Doublelift’ Peng.
Similarly, former LEC ADC Jakob ‘Jackspektra’ Gullvag Kepple turned down the chance to play in the NLC last year.
He was going to compete with Ruddy Sack but turned the chance down to focus on his broadcast career instead.
The final member of the roster is Cloud9’s positional coach Marius ‘Veigar v2’ Aune.
The full lineup for the team is:
- Top – Drututt
- Jungle – Forsen
- Mid – Pobelter
- ADC – Jackspektra
- Support – Veigar v2
