Streamer teams seem to be a new trend in League of Legends. The big name recently: Los Ratones. The toplaner Thebausffs is known for winning primarily by constantly dying. In a recent interview he spoke quite negatively about some professional players.
Who is Thebausffs? The big Lol streamer Caedral founded the influencer team Los Ratones in November 2024. The team’s top planner is the infamous Thebausffs. He established the Sion-Inting tactic and is known to die frequently. As bad as it gets, it works brilliantly.
Many players criticized the decision to hire Thebausffs as a top planner. Many people see him as a troll. Thebausffs definitely wants to be successful with his new team. He’s actually pretty confident. In a recent interview he talks about a possible future, but also speaks disparagingly about the players in the European league.
There are also teams of influencers in Germany:
HandOfBlood wanted to change e-sports with his LoL team, now he is finally German champion

They steal paychecks. They don’t belong there.
What does Thabausffs say? Dexerto spoke in an interview with the Los Ratones toplaner about the expectations and wishes he has for the future. His inting strategy will be discussed, but also his ability with classic champions and tactics.
He says that his biggest goal is to win. It doesn’t matter to him whether he does it with his personal inting strategy or regularly. According to Dexerto, when asked whether he would win the Worlds in LoL, he said completely seriously: That would be his goal in the future.
In relation to this, he is asked if he and the team want to join the LEC, Europe’s top league. That is also a goal of Los Ratones. They won’t be playing there in 2025, but the entire team has the ambition to make it into the league.
But he doesn’t seem to have much interest in many of the top planners in the LEC. Although he doesn’t name any names, he does say some of them quite disparagingly:
We’ve talked about this and as a top laner I can tell you that there are some top laners in the LEC that are fully boosted. They’re really, really bad. They steal paychecks. They don’t belong there. I’m much better than many LEC top laners. I wouldn’t say I’m number one.

He also speaks quite positively about his teammates. Even compare her to Caps, one of the best players in the league.
But he first has to prove his big words in 2025. With his team Los Ratones he will officially take part in a league for the first time in 2025. It remains to be seen how well the team will perform consistently. A lot has also changed with the German team NNO: A team of 5 German Twitch streamers conquered LoL, now NNO is falling apart and starting over
