Biography[edit]
Kaydop started playing Rocket League in 2015 when the game was released a friend of his suggested buying it. At first, Kaydop didn't even know there was a ball in Rocket League[2].
In the beginning, Kaydop played with his friends as well as Ranked alone. During Christmas in 2016, he went to see his father and showed him that an organization had offered him a monthly salary to play Rocket League, which was Mock-It eSports EU.
Miztik was kicked from his team just before RLCS Season 3 Europe and Kaydop asked him to team up with him and Fairy Peak!. The team went on to win RLCS Season 3 Europe and finished second at RLCS Season 3 Worlds.
For RLCS Season 4, Kaydop left Mock-It eSports EU and asked ViolentPanda to team up with him because in his opinion, he was the best player in the world. They completed the roster with Turbopolsa, the reigning World Champion at the time. Gale Force eSports recruited the team, winning RLCS Season 4 Europe and RLCS Season 4 Worlds.
After Season 4, they decided not to change the team. Dignitas acquired the roster in 2018, followed by a back-to-back regional win in RLCS Season 5 Europe and back-to-back international win in RLCS Season 5 Worlds. Kaydop additionally won the RLCS Season 5 Worlds MVP award.
After another amazing season, they haven't changed the team and won yet another RLCS within the region in RLCS Season 6. However, they failed to triumph within RLCS Season 6 Worlds in the Grand Final.
Following this defeat in the final, Kaydop decides to leave Dignitas and join Team Vitality with Scrub Killa and reunites with his old teammate in Fairy Peak!. He won the regional portion of RLCS for the fifth time in a row. Vitality triumphed in Newark and won the gold at RLCS Season 7 Worlds.
Team Vitality decided to not change the team, finishing second in RLCS Season 8 Europe and at RLCS Season 8 Worlds.
Kaydop has won the RLCS World Championship 3 times, participated in 6 consecutive RLCS Worlds Grand Finals, as well as triumphed 5 times consecutively in the RLCS European Championship. He is a role model for the Rocket League scene, especially in France, due to his RLCS career and streams on Twitch.
