Biography[]

Born in Sofia, Hylissang has been playing video games since 2004. In 2006, he started playing Heroes of Might and Magic III, then in 2008 he started playing World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade. In 2011, he moved onto League of Legends.

2014 Season[]

Hylissang started playing competitively when Sheepy asked him to join the team Unicorns Of Love.

With the team, he won several Go4LoL tournaments in early 2014 on the EU West server. As the year progressed, they started to play in more prominent challenger events and do well, taking third place in the Summer Black Monster Cup. Unicorns of Love participated in the first Spring Series #1 play-in but were eliminated by EYES ON U in the second round.

Soon after, Hylissang and the team qualified for the Summer Series #1 of the EUCS, but lost to Ninjas in Pyjamas 2-0 in the quarterfinals.

Another quarterfinal finish in Summer Series #2 qualified UoL for the Summer Playoffs.

The playoffs went particularly well, despite the Unicorns of Love losing to H2k-Gaming in the semifinal. The team went on to beat Ninjas in Pyjamas in the third-place match, securing themselves a spot at the Spring Promotion Tournament.

With the Promotion Tournament came a chance for the Hylissang and the Unicorns of Love to qualify for the 2015 LCS Spring Split. The Promotion Tournament was a huge success, with the team beating Millenium 3-2 in their promotion matchup. This meant that Hylissang and the team would be playing in the LCS the following season.

2015 Season[]

Unicorns of Love were the European team fan-voted to IEM San Jose.[18] With a roster of Vizicsacsi, Kikis, PowerOfEvil, Vardags, and Hylissang at the tournament, they surprised audiences by making it to the semifinals after defeating Lyon Gaming 2-0 and then Team SoloMid 2-0. They placed second at the tournament, losing to Cloud9 in the finals.

The EU LCS Spring Season was a huge success for Hylissang and Unicorns Of Love, finishing the regular season in 5th place, partly thanks to Hylissang's impressive performances on AnnieSquareAnnie and LeonaSquareLeona. This meant that team would participate in the Spring Playoffs, where they would face and beat Gambit Gaming in the quarterfinals. Hylissang and the team managed to make LCS history when they became the first team to knock out a 1st place regular season finisher in the playoff semifinals, taking down SK Gaming convincingly. They went on to lose the playoff final to Fnatic in a close-fought series, finishing 2nd in their first LCS split, and picking up 70 Championship Points in the process.

The Summer Season was equally as successful for Unicorns Of Love, finishing the regular season in 4th place, this time partly thanks to Hylissang's AlistarSquareAlistar and AnnieSquareAnnie performances. This ensured the team's participation in the Summer Playoffs, where they overcame Team ROCCAT in the quarterfinals but were taken out themselves in the semifinals by a dominant Fnatic. 40 Championship Points gained here secured Unicorns Of Love a spot in the 2015 Season Europe Regional Finals. Despite their high seeding, they were beaten by Origen in the final of the gauntlet.

2016 Season[]

After Fnatic withdrew from IEM San Jose due to medical problems, Unicorns of Love took their spot, fielding Hylissang and Vizicsacsi from their 2015 roster along with new members Gilius, Fox, and Steeelback. Hylissang and the team were eliminated in the quarterfinals of the tournament by Counter Logic Gaming. UOL finished in fifth place in the LCS, after being forced to replace Diamondprox in the jungle due to visa issues. They were eliminated in the quarterfinals by Origen.
