Karmine Corp Bot Caliste Henry-Hennebert is Karmine Corp's bot laner and the 2026 LEC Summer Split MVP. He plays on the Razer DeathAdder V4 Pro Black at 1600 DPI with a 50/55 slider split, and was named Rookie of the Year in his debut LEC season.
As of September 2026, Caliste plays League of Legends at 1600 DPI with the client's mouse-speed slider at 50 and the camera-move slider at 55, at 1920×1080, on a Razer DeathAdder V4 Pro Black with a Huntsman V3 Pro TKL keyboard. The 1600 DPI / 50 slider pairing is a mainstream LCK-style configuration rather than a Western one — notable for a 20-year-old who took the LEC Summer MVP award in the same season.
Caliste is the fastest-rising bot laner in Europe. He came through Karmine Corp Blue, winning two LFL titles and EMEA Masters 2025 Summer, then took the LEC Winter title in his first main-roster split — a 'Royal Roader' — and was named Rookie of the Year. One year later he was voted LEC Summer 2026 MVP with numbers that left no room for debate, and qualified for Worlds 2026 with KC as their franchise player.
League of Legends exposes a 0–100 cursor slider rather than an FPS sensitivity; both slider values shown here are the published numbers.
The MVP season had a sting attached: Karmine Corp went 9-0 in the group stage and then lost 0-3 to Movistar KOI in the playoffs on home soil in Nice. The award was announced minutes before that series began.
Caliste plays bot lane as a lane-winning position rather than a scaling one. His numbers at 15 minutes are the core of the case — ahead in farm in three quarters of his matchups, with a +425 gold lead on average — and the champion pool reflects it: Caitlyn, Draven and Vayne are picks that only work if the laning phase is won outright. The unusual thing is the temperament behind it. He has described himself as naturally anxious, and has said the Karmine Corp crowd turned that pressure into something positive rather than something he had to manage.
Caliste's 2026 is defined by two comparisons: the veteran he is replacing as France's representative, and the imported bot laners at Worlds 2026.
France picked Caliste over Hans Sama for the 2026 Esports Nations Cup — the clearest signal yet that the national team believes the generational handover has happened. Hans Sama's counter-argument is 11 LEC titles to Caliste's two, and a 3-0 win in the 2026 Summer final.
Caliste's public advice is about the part of the role that does not appear on a stats sheet — how to keep a lane advantage once you have it.
It is the French nickname the LEC community gave him — 'the little prince' — a nod to both his nationality and how young he was when he arrived at the top level. Karmine Corp signed him as a heavily hyped ERL prospect, he won the 2025 LEC Winter title in his rookie split, and by 2026 the nickname stopped sounding ironic: he was voted LEC Summer Split MVP at 20.
The LEC Summer Split MVP award, on numbers that left no real room for debate: 8.3 KDA, 10.6 CS per minute, 914 damage per minute and 31.3% of his team's total damage across the split. He also led KC to an undefeated 9-0 group stage, and his own team-mates Yike and Busio finished second and third in the same MVP vote.
A 0-3 sweep by Movistar KOI in the upper bracket final, on home soil in Nice — and it was a genuine upset given KC had gone 8-0 in the group stage while KOI had struggled all season. The consolation is that KC had already locked their Worlds 2026 spot before that series, so the loss cost them the domestic title, not the international one.
The term describes a player who wins a domestic title in their rookie split — the fastest possible route to a championship. Caliste did it in 2025, taking the LEC Winter title in his first LEC split after winning two LFL titles and EMEA Masters Summer with Karmine Corp Blue, and he was named LEC Rookie of the Year for the same season.
Built around high-risk, high-mechanic marksmen rather than utility picks. His LEC Summer 2026 draft was anchored by Caitlyn (6 games, 83.3% win rate), and he went unbeaten on Viktor (4 wins) and Ezreal (3 wins) across the split, closing it with six solo kills and a pentakill. He is also known for Draven and Vayne — picks that only work if the laning phase is won outright.
He plays on a Razer DeathAdder V4 Pro Black with a Razer Huntsman V3 Pro TKL keyboard, a Razer Gigantus V2 mousepad and an LG 25GR75FG monitor. His published client values are 1600 DPI with mouse speed at 50 and camera speed at 55.
Every profile in the ProAiming player database is cross-checked against published setting sheets and event setups before it appears, and re-checked before each major event. Hardware, resolution and any client-slider values must come from a verifiable source; anything a player has never published is left blank rather than estimated. Where a value changes mid-season, the most recent verified figure is the one shown.
