European esports organisation G2 Esports has announced Marcin ‘Jankos‘ Jankowski as its latest content creator.

One of League of Legends’ most iconic figures in the European esports scene returns to G2 three years after he last played for the team. In this new role, Jankos will support G2’s content strategy and media output going forward.

The announcement came in the form of a humorous skit published across G2’s social media channels. The video features the Polish player wandering the G2 facility and being rejected from becoming G2’s new player or coaching staff. In the final frames, he then announces his return to the organisation to co-stream the LEC for 2026.

The former jungler spent the majority of the 2025 season as a co-streamer for Rogue first and then Natus Vincere, following the acquisition of Rogue’s slot in the LEC.

Jankos and G2 leverage a Legacy

As one of the members who were part of the G2’s legendary roster that came close to completing the golden road, Jankos was often considered the best jungler in Europe throughout those years.

Thanks to his proactive gameplay and leadership, Jankos won five LEC championships during his tenure on G2, alongside a Mid-Season Invitational title and a Worlds final appearance in 2019, making it the most successful roster the LEC has ever produced.

At the end of 2022, Jankos then moved to Team Heretics, where he wasn’t able to repeat the same results from his previous stint. Throughout the two years, his best result was fourth place, achieved in the LEC 2023 Summer Split.

This year, while transitioning to streaming, he played as the starting jungler for NORD Esports in the Northern League Championship (NLC). That being said, Jankos’ main focus was still on content creation as the team was considered a streamer team, similar to Marc ‘Caedrel’ Lamont’s Los Ratones.

While it’s unclear whether Jankos will continue to compete in the tier-two scene while co-streaming for G2, the Polish content creator will support the team when the new season kicks off in January.

ESI Ranking System
We’ve created a ranking system to help you quickly know how good each gambling platform is. As gamblers ourselves, we know which factors matter most to you, so we follow a best-in-class methodology to test each one with no stone unturned. Once done, we then rank each platform based on the following tiers:
  • A-Tier High-quality sites that deliver a top experience every time. They boast strong performance, nice features, and reliable support, but are just shy of perfection.
  • B-Tier Solid platforms that are worth a spin. They’re safe, fun, and functional, but may be lacking advanced features or have minor drawbacks.
  • S-Tier Reserved for elite operators only. These go well beyond the norm with lucrative bonuses, rewarding promotions, lightning-fast payouts, and a flawless experience overall.
