Freeze (gamer)
Czech professional League of Legends player
Aleš Kněžínek, better known by his in-game name Freeze, is a Czech former professional League of Legends player and was the current Assistant Coach for 100 Thieves. He has also played for Renegades, H2k-Gaming, Copenhagen Wolves, and Ninjas in Pyjamas. He was the first Czech national to play in the LCS.
Career
With Ninjas in Pyjamas, Kněžínek began his LCS career during the summer split of season 3. By the end of the split, the team finished the regular season in 5th place, making it to the playoffs, where they finished 6th overall. This lead Ninjas in Pyjamas to be relegated to the challenger series, where Kněžínek would stay for the whole duration of season 4, before later leaving the disbanding NiP. Kněžížek was then picked up by the Copenhagen Wolves before the start of season 5 spring split, where he and the team finished 6th. In the summer split of season 5, the Copenhagen Wolves were much less successful, finishing in last place, forcing them to be auto-relegated. Meaning Kněžínek's contract expired and he announced his free agency on November 1, 2015. He was picked up by North American team Renegades on January 6, where he is currently playing the season 6 spring split. Renagades finished 8th in the LCS, and Kněžínek left the team after the disappointing finish.
He joined H2k on May 8, 2016, ahead of the EU LCS Summer 2016 split, replacing FORG1VEN at AD Carry as the latter was conscripted into the Greek Army.

Why this record matters
The phrase “czech professional League of Legends player” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Biographical claims are most persuasive when dates, appointments and relationships can be traced to records created close to the events described. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jun 30, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q21694903. None of the 1 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2015 and 2016.
A concise life account rarely captures disputed attribution, private networks or the changing language used to describe a career. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
