Biography[]
Season 3[]
Son "S0NSTAR" Seung-ik played for a team called DUG in 2012 for the International e-Culture Festival 2012. The team failed to win a single game and ended up missing the playoffs. A few months later, in May, he joined as the AD carry of the KT Rolster Arrows. The team never managed to qualify for any OGN tournaments and S0NSTAR left the team in October of 2013.
2014 Season[]
S0NSTAR joined Incredible Miracle 2 on May 27, 2014 as their AD carry. The team only played in one OGN together at HOT6iX Champions Summer 2014 but the team failed to make it to the playoffs and dropped out in the group stage.
2015 Season[]
Changes to the OGN rules forced Incredible Miracle 1 and Incredible Miracle 2 to merge to form Incredible Miracle. None of the players from IM1 stayed with the team so S0NSTAR was given the starting AD carry position. They participated in SBENU Champions Spring 2015 but placed 7th and were forced to play in the Champions Summer Promotion Tournament. Roar joined the team shortly afterwards to share the AD carry spot with S0NSTAR. IM ended up qualifying for SBENU Champions Summer 2015 after going 2-0 against Winners and Anarchy. Paragon joined the team during the season as the third AD carry for Incredible Miracle. IM placed ninth in the regular season of Champions Summer and were forced to play in the LCK 2016 Season Spring Promotion. Incredible Miracle played the Dark Wolves in the promotion tournament and managed to beat them 3-1 to requalify for the LCK.
2016 Season[]
IM competed in the 2015 LoL KeSPA Cup where they lost 2-1 against the Jin Air Green Wings in the first round. When IM revamped their roster after the tournament, S0NSTAR left.
After a couple of months of being a free agent, S0NSTAR moved to Europe and joined Giants Gaming, replacing Adryh.
Trivia[]
- Original username was Climax.
- First champion was
