Maurice "Amazing" Stückenschneider (born April 2, 1994) is a German League of Legends player who was most recently the Jungler for Origen of the European League of Legends Championship Series (EU LCS). Amazing was a semi-finalist at the 2016 League of Legends World Championship with Origen. He has also played for Team SoloMid in the NA LCS and the Copenhagen Wolves. Stückenschneider is usually considered the best German LoL player of all time.
Maurice "Amazing" Stückenschneider is from Bocholt, North Rhine Westphalia, Germany. He first started playing games on consoles, and his first game was Crash Bandicoot when he was between five and six years old. He stuck to console gaming and played Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, and games from the Final Fantasy and Metal Gear Solid series.
It was only in 2010 that Stückenschneider started playing PC games, as he participated in ESL events in Counter Strike: Source. However, his breakthrough came in League of Legends, a while after his brother introduced him to it. Initially dismissive of the cartoon-like appearance of the game, Stückenschneider returned to it sometime in Season 1, specializing in AD carries such as Ashe and Ezreal.
Using primarily Udyr, Shyvana and Lee Sin, he rose through the ranks and peaked at 2.8k Elo in Season 2. His progression drew notice from many teams, the most notable at the time being LCS Season 3 Qualifier participant Team Acer. A string of failed attempts to qualify for the LCS almost caused him to retire, but Shook's defection to Alliance allowed him to settle in one more team, the Copenhagen Wolves.
It was with Copenhagen Wolves that Amazing finally reached the LCS. The Spring Split proved to be the break he needed, and he gained a reputation for his high mechanics and proficiency on Lee Sin, Elise, and Evelynn. However, even with Amazing's two-time weekly MVP performance, the team overall didn't see much success, and they were forced into relegations. After defeating Denial eSports.Europe in the Summer Promotion Tournament, Amazing left Copenhagen Wolves.
