Khema

Khema, whose real name is Emanuele Conti, is an Italian jungler whose competitive career is now behind him. At 27 years old and listed as retired, the former Esports Empire player leaves behind the memory of an aggressive, mechanically driven approach to the jungle role that made him a recognizable name within the Italian scene.

A Predator in the Jungle

The jungle is the most map-oriented position in League of Legends, and Khema’s champion pool tells the story of how he liked to play it. Rengar and Kha’Zix, two of his signature picks, are quintessential assassin junglers built around ambush, burst damage, and hunting isolated targets. Mastering them requires impeccable pathing, timing, and the confidence to dive into the enemy backline and delete a priority carry before disappearing again. These champions reward players who read the map like a hunter reads terrain.

His pool did not end at raw aggression, though. Taliyah offered a control-mage jungle option with strong roaming and crowd control, giving his team a more utility-focused package when drafts demanded it, while Kindred blended the assassin instinct with a ranged, scaling marksman profile and the game-altering pressure of Kindred’s ultimate. Together, these four champions reveal a jungler comfortable across archetypes, capable of flexing between explosive carry play and supportive tempo control.

Legacy with Esports Empire

Khema’s tenure came with Esports Empire, an organization whose entry is now archived, reflecting the transient nature of many competitive rosters. Italian League of Legends has long been a passionate but developing region, and players like Khema helped populate its domestic competitions during their active years, contributing to the grassroots foundation on which the country’s scene continues to build.

Now retired, Khema is remembered as a jungler who embraced the high-risk, high-reward identity that the assassin playstyle demands. That willingness to make plays, to path aggressively and gamble on picks, is precisely what makes junglers of his mold memorable. While the archived status of his former team marks the closing of a chapter, his champion legacy captures the flavor of a competitor who preferred to seize control of the game rather than wait for it.
