Where does the “An Old Hand, Professor” meme come from?
In the second split of CBLoL 2015, player Whesley “Leko” Holler faced the newcomer Professor. According to Techtudo, after securing the win and eliminating his opponent, Leko shouted “Eu sou macaco velho, Professor.” The line caught on among the championship's veterans: Luan “Jockster” Cardoso and Felipe “BrTT” Gonçalves also repeated the shout against Professor in the same competition, as a jab at the rookie. “Macaco velho” (old monkey) is the Brazilian expression for someone very experienced who does not fall for an easy trap. The clip circulated in YouTube videos and became a catchphrase in the gaming community.
