Career

sOAZ first joined Fnatic in 2012 and enjoyed over two years of success with an iconic roster which included xPeke, Cyanide and Yellowstar. On 23 December 2014 sOAZ left Fnatic and soon after joined former teammate xPeke, who founded Origen.[4][5] sOAZ is one of only 4 players who have qualified for six World Championships, along with Sneaky, Doublelift and Clearlove. He later rejoined Fnatic, and was part of the 2018 team that reached the Worlds 2018 final, albeit sharing time with fellow top laner Bwipo.

For the 2019 season, sOAZ joined Misfits Gaming, along with mid laner Febiven.[6] He left the team partway through the 2019 Summer Split along with support Gorilla as part of a rebuild of Misfits during their disappointing 2019 season.[7] On 12 December 2019, sOAZ announced that he would be transferring to North America and joining LCS team Immortals as their top laner for the 2020 Spring Split.[8]

In December 2020, it was announced that Boyer would be a coach for LDLC OL for the 2021 La Ligue Française season.[1]
