Karmine Corp’s Caliste wins 2026 LEC Summer Split MVP

Caliste Henry-Hennebert, known in competition as Caliste, was named the 2026 LEC Summer Split MVP during the LEC Roadshow in Nice, France. The announcement came as Karmine Corp was eliminated from the path to the Summer Split Grand Final following a loss to Movistar KOI.

The award recognizes Caliste’s performance over the Summer Split. The presentation took place publicly at the Roadshow, allowing fans in Nice to see the announcement in person.

Caliste made his professional debut in 2025. He played for Karmine Corp Blue and helped that squad win two Ligue Française de League of Legends (LFL) titles and the EMEA Masters 2025 Summer event. After moving to Karmine Corp’s main roster in the LEC, he received the league’s Rookie of the Year honor and was a member of the team that won the 2025 LEC Winter title.

Karmine Corp’s defeat by Movistar KOI ended their run in the Summer Split and prevented the team from advancing to the Grand Final. The team’s elimination came on the same day the league announced the individual season awards.

The MVP is the first League of Legends EMEA Championship season MVP award for Caliste and adds to his list of regional and league honors earned since his 2025 debut.
