October 15, 2022 10:36 AM

'In some ways it's bittersweet because it's the end of the Rogue name and icon, although I think it'll live on in the LEC hall of fame'

The champions of the League of Legends European Championship (LEC) Rogue are currently sitting pretty at 3-0 on top of Group C in the 2022 World Championship. This is their third time at Worlds as an organisation and the first time for them to qualify as Europe’s number one seed, and they have a good chance of qualifying for the team’s first-ever international knockout appearance.

UK head coach Simon ‘fredy122’ Payne has been with the team since their first foray into the LEC in 2019. Megalodontus speaks to him after their win against Top Esports in the first round robin and he talked about Rogue’s form, preparation going into Worlds, as well as some brief thoughts on the recent Rogue Koi merger.
