If you think you know what it means to “main” a champion in League of Legends, we have an update for you.
A player in the Turkish servers has surpassed 10 million Mastery Points on Ashe, according to tracking website Champion Mastery Lookup. They’re the first player to reach that milestone with any unique champion in League, followed by a player in Western Europe who has 9.1 million points on Heimerdinger.

Mihabe is the nickname of this Ashe main—who we can safely call a one-trick pony at this point. They’ve played over 2,300 matches with Ashe since season six, according to League stats website OP.gg. That means they’re playing with that champ most of the time for the fourth-straight year.
But that doesn’t mean mihabe is a top Ashe player. Their best elo ever was Gold in season five, and they’re Silver Four in solo ranked this season.
That’s possible because players earn Mastery Points based on their individual performance in a match, and the number of points they earn may vary little if it’s a win or a loss. It’s impossible to lose Mastery Points, which means a player can be Iron Four and still have millions of Mastery Points with a single champion.
That’s a lot of dedication to a champ, but mihabe has been fast to earn these points. The player with 9.1 million points on Heimerdinger has played six times as many matches as mihabe on Ashe.
The next time someone calls you a one-trick pony on a League champion, remember mihabe and show them what that expression really means. It’d probably take you a long time to get there with your favorite champion.
