Selfmade Begins a New Journey in the Arabian League.

Jungler Oskar "Selfmade" Boderek is set to join Twisted Minds and compete for the first time in the Arabian League (AL), sources tell Sheep Esports on Wednesday. In the spring season, the Polish jungler competed for Vitality.Bee in the LFL before being replaced by Kacper "Daglas" Dagiel, who was demoted from the team's LEC roster.

New Beginnings in the Arabian League

First joining Vitality in May of 2021, Selfmade has had a long journey with the French organization. Once a promising rookie who competed for the likes of Fnatic and SK Gaming, the Polish jungler was brought onto Vitality's roster back in the summer split of 2021. During his tenure with the organization, he competed for two splits in the LEC, achieving subpar results before eventually being benched in favor of former world champion Kang "Haru" Min-seung.

Despite a difficult competitive journey, Selfmade returned to the LFL this year, hoping to revitalize his career and reach new heights within the ERLs. Unfortunately, while Vitality.Bee had a serviceable latter half to its season, the team eventually faltered and ended in 4th place, missing out on an EMEA Masters qualification.

In spite of these events, Selfmade is now determined to seek new horizons and prove himself once more. As the Arabian League just achieved its best-ever results at the EMEA Masters, and amidst large changes to the aforementioned tournament which aim to equalize the disparities between accredited and non-accredited ERLs, the Arabic region is now growing considerably in attractiveness.

Per sources, Selfmade will be the only addition to Twisted Minds' roster in the summer season. Achieving a fourth-place finish in the first half of the year, the organization now hopes to improve its odds and compete for a spot at the EMEA Masters for the first time in its history. Though the organization was announced as one of the members of the Esports World Cup, sources indicate that the team will not participate in the cup's League of Legends tournament.
