Los Ratones are out of the LEC. The community-built superteam featuring thebausffs, Rekkles, Crownie, Velja, and Yamato as coach has been eliminated from the 2026 Versus split after a heartbreaking final day that left players and fans processing the end of one of professional League of Legends’ most unlikely experiments.
The team entered the LEC as underdogs with a devoted fanbase, powered by some of the biggest personalities in European League. Their elimination came down to an 0-4 start that haunted them through the entire split — despite improving significantly as the weeks went on. If you’re inspired by the competitive grind and want to improve your own ranked play, working with a professional LoL coach from Eloking can help you identify the same kind of macro weaknesses that separate LEC-level play from solo queue.
Here’s a breakdown of what happened, how every player and staff member reacted, and what this means for the future of LEC’s most emotionally invested roster.

The 0-4 Start That Defined the Split
Los Ratones opened the 2026 Versus split with four consecutive losses — a deficit that proved impossible to overcome. While the team showed significant improvement in the middle weeks of the split, the early hole meant they needed near-perfect results down the stretch to qualify for the next stage. That didn’t happen.
The final day came down to results from other matches, and when the math was settled, Los Ratones were out. Coach Yamato acknowledged the brutal reality in his post-elimination statement: “sitting through this gameplay from other matches is torture but in the end it was in our hands and with a lil bit more in some of the games we could’ve made it so can’t be mad at anyone else.”[1]
Every Player and Staff Reaction After Elimination
Baus (thebausffs) — Top Lane
“Thats it for me in the LEC. A lot of emotions running right now so I will take some time for myself. Thank you for all the support and sorry I didn’t do better.” The streamer-turned-pro’s message was the shortest and most emotional of the group — and his apology hit particularly hard given how much personal risk he took leaving his successful streaming career to compete professionally.
Crownie (Crownshot) — ADC
“Sadly i messed up our game today, it was in our hands, thank u for all the support it was amazing and playing LEC was super fun.” Crownie took personal responsibility for the final game — the kind of accountability that’s rare in public pro-player statements but tells you something about the team culture Los Ratones built.
Rekkles — Support
The veteran former Fnatic star posted a longer, more measured statement: “Please send support to all the LR peeps if u have time. Was a wonderful experience, but ended negatively so positive messages are appreciated. Everyone tried their best until the very end, from players to staff. We fought bravely in true Los Ratones spirit. Thanks Marc for making this whole thing happen, giving us a chance to fight for an honourable cause.”
Rekkles’ mention of Marc — the organization’s founder — underscores how different Los Ratones was from a typical LEC franchise. This was a passion project, not a corporate esports venture.
Yamato (YamatoCannon) — Coach
Yamato was characteristically direct: “just feel empty cus we were getting better with more to show but the 0-4 is biting us in the ass. thank you for your support. we tried very hard.” His analysis was honest — the team’s trajectory was upward, but the early losses created a mathematical wall they couldn’t climb.
Velja, Samulek, and Mitaouko
Jungler Velja kept it characteristically brief: “Was a good run tbh xD.” Support staff Samulek reflected on still “processing what happened” and being “glad I could be part of such an amazing team.” Manager Mitaouko posted the most emotionally resonant message of all: “A once-in-a-lifetime few months. I know this time with LR will be one of my most treasured memories. This team became my family for a while.”
What G2 Caps and the LEC Community Said
The reaction from rival players was overwhelmingly supportive. G2’s Caps — widely considered the best mid in LEC history — gave Los Ratones a public endorsement that carried real weight: “I think LR should definitely be proud of what they did, because a lot of people were doubting them, myself included. It’s been fun for me to watch them as well. Last year, I was watching a lot of their games — especially watching Baus.”[2]
Caedrel, the LEC’s most popular caster, was visibly emotional in his reaction: “It’s over. I don’t even know what to say. I have too much emotion to speak, I don’t want to say anything I am going to regret saying or anything dumb. I hope you felt something special this split because I certainly did.” With nearly 3,500 upvotes, his reaction thread became one of the most-engaged LEC posts of the season.

What Los Ratones Meant for the LEC
The Streamer-to-Pro Pipeline
Baus’ transition from full-time content creator to professional top laner was the centerpiece of Los Ratones’ appeal. The conventional wisdom says you can’t compete at the LEC level without years of grinding through academy systems and ERL leagues. Baus didn’t follow that path — he went from entertainment-focused stream content (the “strategic inting” Sion gameplay that made him famous) to genuine LEC competition.
The 0-4 start gave skeptics ammunition, but the mid-split improvement showed the concept had legs. Whether another streamer-to-pro experiment happens in the LEC depends largely on whether an organization is willing to take the same financial risk Los Ratones’ backers did — and whether another streamer has the competitive drive Baus demonstrated.
The Community Investment Factor
Los Ratones generated fan engagement numbers that most LEC teams would envy. The elimination thread pulled 4,164 upvotes and 487 comments — significantly higher than elimination reactions for established franchise teams. Caedrel’s reaction added another 3,454 upvotes. The team proved that authentic personality and community connection can generate viewership and engagement that corporate branding struggles to match.

What’s Next for Baus and the Los Ratones Players
Baus said he’ll be “taking some time” — which likely means a return to streaming, at least temporarily. Whether he pursues another LEC opportunity depends on offers and his own competitive appetite. Rekkles’ future is less clear; the veteran has bounced between multiple teams and roles in recent years, and this project felt like it might have been his last competitive chapter.
The rest of the roster — Crownie, Velja, Samulek — are all young enough to find spots on other LEC or ERL teams. Yamato’s coaching stock remains high despite the result; building a competitive team from scratch with a non-traditional roster is exactly the kind of challenge that attracts coaching offers.
What’s confirmed: Los Ratones are eliminated from the LEC 2026 Versus split. All five players and key staff have posted public statements. G2 Caps and Caedrel both publicly praised the team’s effort and impact. What’s unknown: whether the organization continues in any form, whether Baus will pursue another competitive opportunity, and whether Rekkles has played his final professional match.
Los Ratones' 0-4 start to the 2026 Versus split created a deficit they couldn't overcome despite significant improvement in later weeks. They were mathematically eliminated on the final day.
Baus said he's taking time for himself after elimination. He hasn't confirmed retirement or a return to streaming — future competitive plans depend on offers and personal decision.
G2 Caps said LR 'should definitely be proud' and admitted he was among those who doubted them. He praised watching Baus specifically and called their run fun to follow.
The roster featured thebausffs (top), Velja (jungle), Crownie/Crownshot (ADC), Rekkles (support), and Samulek, coached by YamatoCannon with Mitaouko managing.
No official announcement has been made about the organization's future. Several players are young enough to join other teams, while Baus and Rekkles face uncertain competitive paths.
