Tristan ‘PowerOfEvil’ Schrage is a professional gamer from Bad Soden, Germany. He is a 19 year old mid laner competing for Misfits, showing off his gaming potential to esports fans around the world. He is famous for his mechanical game plays on Cassiopeia, Syndra and Orianna as well as his bizarre champion picks.
Before Tristan decided to take up League of Legends, PowerOfEvil had the ambition to be an airline pilot, flying internationally. Gaming aside, PowerOfEvil enjoys his spare time playing Tennis and Soccer with his friends.
Where it all began:
Tristan’s interest in gaming all started at an early age, playing the video game ‘frogger’. Then as he got older, he spent his free time playing Age of Empires 2, Dota 2, Warcraft III and Unreal Tournament 2004. When Schrage was around 12 year old, his brother and his friends encouraged him to play the video game, League of Legends and from then on never stopped playing.
His alias, PowerOfEvil comes from Warcraft, in search of a funny and scary name. The first LOL unit, Tristan joined was Team Mistral back in 2013 but his gaming success all started with Unicorns of Love. Schrage has the flexibility to play other positions like top lane and support but will never switch the mid lane role.
