150

Under the alias 150 is Deniz Yılmaz, a Turkish support who has since left active play. He retired at 25, and his last team was the 5 Ronin Akademi roster, the kind of academy setup that works to shape and sharpen young talent within Turkey’s competitive ecosystem.

What Makes a Support Tick

In League of Legends, support is the role that asks the most of a player without asking for credit, and 150 made it his calling. Lane begins with a support standing beside the marksman in the bot lane, yet the reach of that job extends well past lane through ward placement, roaming, and deciding when a fight starts or gets absorbed. The strongest supports act as calm strategists who read the whole map and give up their own spotlight so teammates can shine. Their value rarely shows up in flashy numbers; it shows up in the games they quietly turn.

Range From Hooks to Hard Engage

Yılmaz’s champion choices point to a support who could adapt to several playstyles. Thresh stands out as the classic playmaker, where a single hook or lantern play can swing a match either way. Bard brings a roaming, unpredictable edge that pressures the whole map, whereas Alistar and Rell represent the hard-engage tank archetype, slipping into the enemy backline to open up fights. Covering everything from playmaking to front-line initiation, he showed the flexibility that made him useful in drafting.

Where His Career Ended

Now that his competitive days are over, 150 closes out his run as a support who played a part in the growth of the Turkish scene. During his time with 5 Ronin Akademi, he was among the players charged with developing and steadying academy rosters. Retirement does not erase what a support like Yılmaz contributed: the fundamentals he helped teach and the fights he made possible continue to live on in the players and teams who shared the Rift with him.
