Parus

Born Polat Furkan Çiçek, Parus is a Turkish support currently playing in the LEC for Natus Vincere. At 23, he arrives on the European stage with experience gathered in one of League of Legends’ most passionate regional scenes, and he now carries the duties of the game’s most team-first role.

Steering the Bot Lane

Support is frequently the most overlooked spot on a roster, but it can also be the most decisive. The player in that seat dictates the pace of the bot lane, manages vision across the map, and either starts or covers fights depending on what the moment calls for. Parus represents both major styles of this role through his go-to champions. Thresh is the archetypal playmaker, a hook-and-lantern threat whose abilities can swing a fight in an instant. Pyke, by contrast, leans into aggression as an assassin-support hybrid that roams, finishes off weakened targets, and distributes gold to allies.

From Turkey to the LEC

Turkey’s competitive scene has consistently turned out hungry, aggressive players, and Parus matches that description. His champion pool suggests a support who prefers to dictate games instead of responding to them, looking for plays and setting up ganks rather than simply protecting his carry. Competing for Natus Vincere, a organization with a long history across multiple esports titles, places extra prestige and pressure on his LEC run.

In a league where teamfights and vision control often determine results, a support with Parus’s mindset can make a real impact. A well-timed Thresh hook or a fast Pyke execute can turn a close game around. The downside is the narrow margin that comes with high-tempo supports, since an overeager engage can just as easily give the opponent momentum.

Outlook

As Parus carries on his LEC campaign with Natus Vincere, how far he rises depends on his ability to turn aggressive instincts into clean, coordinated plays. Playmaking supports succeed or fail on timing and reading the game, and sharpening those calls will shape his path forward. For fans who enjoy high-impact bot-lane duos, Parus is a player worth watching closely.
