Vicksy Pulls Off Vex Pentakill

A Popular UK Twitch streamer Vicksy pulled off one of the first Vex pentakills since the champion was launched to live servers (perhaps the first on an English stream).

In League of Legends, the 26-year-old from London is recognized for playing mid-lane with champions like Zoe, and she often achieves Master tier. Vicksy also has esports experience in the United Kingdom, having competed in the scene for several years before shifting to streaming and competing in Twitch Rivals competitions.

Vicksy has taken to Vex, the Gloomy Mage, the newest League of Legends champion, who debuted on live servers yesterday (September 23rd).

Vicksy spent time on Mobafire creating a Vex tutorial, which is now featured on the Mobafire site, and she streamed a lot of the new control image last night.

The mid-laner had come near to getting a pentakill numerous times on stream before finally getting one and shouting with joy!

Vicksy also achieved another milestone: the greatest Twitch viewership she’s ever seen. According to Twitchmetrics, the number of viewers was just shy of 4,000.

Vicksy’s first Vex Twitch VoD has also been viewed over 40,000 times, and she was seen on Twitch last night with some League of Legends royalty.

Tyler1, LCS, Doublelift, and I are the most popular English League of Legends streams on Twitch right now,” Vicksy stated. “That’s strange.”

Vicksy added; “It’s been a busy day – the greatest view count I’ve ever had on my own, so I’m proud of that. It’s been fantastic.”

It’s fantastic to see UK League of Legends talent like Vicksy get the recognition she deserves – she’s put in a lot of effort over the years, and it’s paying off.
