The 21-year-old Dane Rasmus “Caps” Winther is considered the best LoL player in Europe. However, his successful team G2 is in a crisis in the League of Legends. Caps took drastic measures and used scissors: The new bald Caps only wins now.
This is the situation:
- The 21-year-old mid-laner Caps is probably the best player in Europe, unless his evil twin brother Craps shows up. When Caps plays well, he can decide games on his own, just like at Worlds 2019, when he led his team, G2, to the finals and could only be defeated by Super-Carry Doinb.
- However, G2 is in a form crisis in 2021: In the Spring Split, they surprisingly did not become champions, and now in the Summer Season, they have already suffered 5 defeats. Recently, they lost 4 games in a row. This is akin to a royal insult.
- Caps said: “Something has to change” and shaved his head. Since then, G2 only wins.
4 games lost in a row drive Caps to drastic measures
How has it been for G2 so far? The Spring Split has not gone well for G2 so far: They started the season well, only suffering a shameful defeat against Schalke, but they were looking quite good with a 4-1 record after two weeks.
But then a crisis began: They lost 4 games in a row and G2 fell to a negative record of 4-5. This is quite unusual for the serial champions.
However, in the last 2 games against Astralis and the strong opponent Rogue, G2 was suddenly able to win. Meanwhile, mid-laner Caps presented himself with a new look, sporting a shaved head.
This is what Caps says about his shaved head: After the game against Astralis, Caps said:
“We lost a lot of games. I felt like: Something has to change. So this time it was my hair.”

Caps says he cut his hair himself with scissors, which put him in the mood to play the new champion Gwen. She has scissors, and he felt more comfortable with that.
Overall, he has decided for the new season to play both new champions Gwen and Viego because new champions are simply fun. Furthermore, both are quite strong, so he plays them endlessly in solo queue.
Another important player at G2 is the top laner Wunder. He also tried to make a big symbolic gesture: He deleted WoW. However, that did not go so well.
