Biography

Fudge was born in Brisbane, Australia. He began playing League of Legends in Season 3, when he was 11 years old. He began playing in the Oceanic Challenger Series in 2018.

2019 Season

In the middle of the 2019 season, Fudge joined MAMMOTH, replacing Topoon. Fudge was the team's only mid-season replacement, but he helped lead the team from a mediocre finish in split 1 to a 1st place finish in the split 2 playoffs. At Worlds 2019, MAMMOTH went 2-2 in Play-In groups, but was eliminated in tiebreakers.

2021 Season

Fudge was one of many Oceanic players to move to North America, joining Cloud9 Academy in 2020. Fudge established himself as one of the top prospects in the academy league, with his team winning regular season and playoffs in both splits. Following new Oceanic residency rules, Fudge no longer counted as an import in North America and was soon promoted to the Cloud9 LCS roster, replacing star player Licorice. Fans and analysts questioned the move, especially since Jack had claimed C9 would not make roster changes during the offseason. C9 performed well in spring, and although Fudge's individual performance was sometimes criticized, the team managed to win the split. At MSI 2021, C9 struggled, dropping games to multiple wildcard teams, but Fudge showcased much stronger individual play. He continued his dominant form in summer, where he was voted both 1st All-Pro Team and Most Improved Player. However, the team could not replicate its spring championship run and finished 3rd in playoffs. At Worlds 2021, C9 took advantage of FunPlus Phoenix's underperformance to narrowly escape groups with a 2-4 record, before being eliminated 3-0 by Gen.G in quarterfinals.

2022 Season

The beginning of the 2022 season came with the surprising announcement that Fudge would role swap to mid lane. Despite the unorthodox change, Fudge performed well on supportive mid laners and even managed to land of the 3rd All-Pro Team for his performance. However, C9 collapsed in playoffs, and many criticized Fudge's inability to perform as a carry when his top laner Summit was target banned. Summit left the team after the disappointing spring finish and Fudge returned to top lane. In summer, C9 struggled during the regular season, but came alive in playoffs, led by rookie bot laner Berserker to ultimately win the championship, marking Fudge's second championship in two years. At Worlds 2022, Fudge was criticized for continually locking in carry top laners like Fiora without managing to gain significant advantages. C9 won only a single game at Worlds and was eliminated at groups with a 1-5 record.
