Streamer Forsen and Pobelter to compete in League of Legends’ NLC

Swedish streamer Sebastian ‘Forsen‘ Fors and former Team Liquid mid laner Eugene ‘Pobelter‘ Park will compete in Northern League of Legends Championship (NLC) 2026 Winter as part of a newly formed roster.

The team, known as 4 Swines and a Bum, is the ninth team announced to take part in the opening split of the 2026 season.

Unveiled on January 5th, by the team’s top laner Maks ‘Drututt‘ Przychodzień, the team features a mixture of content creators and professional players. “The pro leagues are not ready for us,” said Drututt on social media. “Excited to announce that I am joining the NLC with the best and most stacked roster to date.”

Forsen will compete as the team’s jungler, while Drututt will take the role of top laner as it looks to make an impact with some established names from Europe and North America. Drututt last competed in December 2024 under the 5 Pigs 1 Team banner at NNO Cup Season 2, finishing in second place.

Pobelter has spent the entirety of his career competing in North America, achieving a wealth of success over the past eleven years. In 2015 and 2018, he won the North American LCS Summer Split with Counter Logic Gaming and Team Liquid, respectively. In 2025, he competed in Split 1 of the North American Challengers League under the Near Airport banner, scoring a top-four finish.

Joining Pobelter is Norwegian bot laner Jakob ‘Jackspektra‘ Gullvåg Kepple. Between 2022 and 2023, he represented Team Heretics in Winter and Spring splits before moving to Los Heretics, where he won the Iberian Cup.

Marius ‘Veigarv2‘ Aune rounds out the 4 Swines and a Bum roster as its support. Best known for his time in coaching roles for Cloud9, Veigarv2 helped lead the North American organisation to several LCS split wins. Most recently, he guided Cloud9 to a sixth-place finish at the 2025 KeSPA Cup.

In addition to his coaching commitments, Veigarv2 continues to hold a high ranking on the European ladder. The player currently sits at 1,001 LP in Grandmaster.

Los Ratones debuted in the NLC in March 2025 and has quickly cemented its place as one of the most popular teams in League of Legends. The Grand Final of last year’s NLC Spring Split peaked at over 220,000 viewers, demonstrating the value of content creators and their involvement with esports.
