Solary have found their 2027 midlaner. Lithuanian Toffe is leaving TLN Pirates for the LFL side, and the roster now has exactly one empty seat.
Solary announced the signing on X on Wednesday. Tautvydas "Toffe" Gegeckas is 21 years old and will play a third straight year in the Ligue Française de League of Legends (LFL). He spent 2026 with TLN Pirates.
Only one seat left on Solary
Toffe arrives at a roster that is almost finished. Only the toplane is missing. Here is the 2027 lineup as it stands.
- Top: TBD
- Jungle: Mehdi "Boukada" Lahlou
- Mid: Tautvydas "Toffe" Gegeckas
- ADC: Kim "Cypher" Yu-jun
- Support: Noh "Thumb" Hyeong-jun
- Head coach: Aymerick "Hairost" Sergeant
Cypher and Thumb both arrive from South Korea. Solary still need a toplaner to finish the team.
From bottom of the table to a Summer final
Toffe joined the LFL in 2025 with BDS Academy. The debut year went badly. The team sat near the bottom of the standings all season and lost the promotion tournament.
2026 was a different story. TLN Pirates finished top four at both the Invitational and the Spring Split in their first LFL season. They then reached the Summer Split final, where Galions beat them. That run earned a spot at EMEA Masters, where Movistar KOI Fénix knocked them out in the quarterfinals.
Toffe also helped Lithuania qualify for the Esports Nations Cup with wins over Kosovo, Ukraine, Romania and Hungary. The tournament was later postponed. Earlier in his career he won the Elite Series with mCon esports and played his first EMEA Masters in Summer 2024.
Why Solary's roster looks so different
Solary co-founder and Head of League of Legends César "Wakz" Hugues warned fans during a livestream that keeping the 2026 players would be very unlikely. He expected the botlane and the jungler to end up in the LEC. He also said his toplaner might get an LEC shot, or could retire if that door stays shut.
The first part of that prediction is already coming true. Lanzo "Zicssi" Ciajolo is expected to join SK Gaming. Kim "Piero" Jung-hun is set to sign with GIANTX.
The one question left for Solary is who fills the top lane.
