Once a toplaner who thrilled European League of Legends fans, Adam "Adam" Maanane now finds himself without a team. In a lengthy post on his X account, the French toplaner reflected on his offseason, during which his options gradually narrowed, as well as his future and his desire to return to the top level of European play.

Adam’s offseason has been fairly slow, as he mentioned. First, Natus Vincere allowed him to explore his options after a difficult Summer Split in which the team failed to win a single BO3. As reported by Sheep Esports at the time, it wasn’t impossible that he could join an LCS team, but that move never materialized.

An Uncertain Future

Adam is currently a free agent. According to Sheep Esports, nearly all LEC's toplane slots are already filled, with the only remaining option at Fnatic—but that spot is being contested between Panagiotis "Empyros" Tantis, Francesco "Shelfmade" Cardia, and Óscar "Oscarinin" Muñoz. Adam has announced that he is leaving Berlin, where the LEC studio is located, to move back to Paris.

He plans to increase his streaming presence on the already vibrant French scene, while keeping the same goal: to continue playing professionally. As he said, "My ultimate goal is obviously to return to the highest level—that’s what I live for."
