-'''Immortals''' is a North American team.
-== History ==
-'''Immortals''' was announced on October 7th, 2015 as a new esports franchise and also the new brand of [[Team 8]], with that roster being their first of multiple planned esports teams.<ref>[http://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1snjvcv Gaming, Tech, Media & Sports Executives Launch eSports Franchise “Immortals”] ''twitlonger.com''</ref> Soon after the team's creation, support player [[Dodo8]] became the team's player manager, retiring from competitive play.<ref name="Dodo8manager">[http://www.dailydot.com/esports/dodo8-immortals-retire/ Dodo8 ends his playing career, moves on to player management] ''dailydot.com''</ref><ref name="dodo8manager2">[http://twitter.com/IMTgg/status/654349100666744832 Immortals's Tweet] ''twitter.com''</ref> Immortals ended up with an entirely different roster from the Team 8 players that they started with: on December 8th, they announced [[Huni]], [[Reignover]], [[Pobelter]], [[WildTurtle]], and [[Adrian]] as their roster for the 2016 season.<ref name="2016roster">[http://www.dailydot.com/esports/immortals-huhi-pobelter-roster/ Huni, Pobelter, WildTurtle headline star-studded Immortals roster] ''dailydot.com''</ref>
-===2016 Season===
-====2016 NA LCS Spring Split====
-Expected to be a top team in the [[League Championship Series/North America/2016 Season/Spring Season|LCS]], Immortals initially exceeded all expectations as they went undefeated for the first six weeks of the season before losing one game to reigning champions [[Counter Logic Gaming]] in week 7. They won the rest of their regular season games, but as the season progressed further they looked weaker and weaker as a team, and even seemed to falter against the last-place [[Team Dignitas]], needing to come back against them to pull out a win. With a top seed clinched into the [[League Championship Series/North America/2016 Season/Spring Playoffs|playoffs]], Immortals were guaranteed to face the lowest-seed team that won in the quarterfinals. That team ended up being [[Team Solomid]], who were on a strong upswing after a sixth-place regular season finish. With questionable drafts including a [[Lucian]] top for Huni in game 1, [[Urgot]] mid for Pobelter in game 2, and three games of [[Karma]] support for Adrian as well as not a single contest of the strongly-in-meta [[Ekko]], Immortals lost 3-0 to TSM. They came back the next week to beat [[Team Liquid]] and finish in third place overall.
-====2016 NA LCS Summer Split====
-Expectations for Immortals going into the [[League Championship Series/North America/2016 Season/Summer Season|Summer Season]] were again high, after they were one of only three NA teams not to change any players in the [[2016 Midseason Roster Swaps/North America/Current Rosters|mid-season break]], and while they nearly repeated their spring split record - this time dropping only two of eighteen series in the new best of 3 format as opposed to 1 best of 1 - they were indisputably the second-best team in the league. TSM with new rookie star support [[Biofrost]] went 17-1 in series, and they bested Immortals in both of their head-to-head series. Immortals still had a [[League Championship Series/North America/2016 Season/Summer Playoffs|playoff]] bye, and so they were able to avoid TSM in the semis, instead facing the third-place [[Cloud9]]. In a back-and-forth five-game series, Immortals were upset and faced CLG in the third-place match, which they came back from a disastrous game 1 to win 3-2. Unfortunately, despite their combined 33-3 regular season record, Immortals only had 120 [[2016 Season/Championship Points|Championship Points]] compared to CLG's 130, and so it was CLG who won the automatic second-place [[2016 Season World Championship]] seed from North America. And even though Immortals had the top seed in the [[2016 Season North America Regional Finals|Regional Finals]], they were upset once again by Cloud9, and their season ended short of Worlds.
-===2017 Season===
-====2017 Preseason====
-Immortals's one-year player contracts lapsed in November 2016, and four of their five players departed the team. Jungler [[Reignover]] first left for [[Team Liquid]],<ref name="reignoverleave">[http://immortals.gg/news/2016/11/23/goodbye-and-good-luck-reignover/ Goodbye and good luck, Reignover!] ''immortals.gg''</ref><ref>[http://www.espn.com/esports/story/_/id/18121501/league-legends-immortals-reignover-join-team-liquid-sources-say Reignover set to join Team Liquid, sources say] ''espn.com''</ref> while top laner [[Huni]] joined three-time World Champions [[SK Telecom T1]],<ref>[http://immortals.gg/news/2016/12/02/farewell-huni/ Farewell, Huni!] ''immortals.gg''</ref><ref name="huniskt">[http://twitter.com/sktelecom_t1/status/804515392706134016 SK Telecom T1's Tweet] ''twitter.com''</ref> splitting up the iconic duo of two years. Veteran support [[Adrian]] moved on to [[Phoenix1]],<ref>[http://immortals.gg/news/2016/11/29/goodbye-adrian-thanks-for-all-the-support/ Goodbye Adrian, Thanks for All the Support!] ''immortals.gg''</ref> and AD carry [[WildTurtle]] rejoined his former team, [[Team SoloMid]].<ref>[http://immortals.gg/news/2016/12/05/goodbye-wildturtle-flashing-into-a-bright-future/ Goodbye WildTurtle: Flashing Into a Bright Future] ''immortals.gg''</ref><ref>[http://www.riftherald.com/na-lcs/2016/12/7/13794402/tsm-wildturtle-lol-returns-2017-roster TSM Brings Back WildTurtle] ''riftherald.com''</ref> Immortals's head coach [[Dylan Falco]] left for [[Team EnVyUs]],<ref>[http://www.thescoreesports.com/lol/news/12674-dylan-falco-to-coach-envyus Dylan Falco to Coach EnVyUs] ''thescoreesports.com''</ref> leaving only [[Pobelter]], who signed a new two-year contract,<ref>[http://immortals.gg/news/2016/12/06/pobelter-signs-2-year-contract/ Pobelter Signs Two Year Contract] ''immortals.gg''</ref> on the Immortals roster from 2016.
-The new roster featured a blend of veteran LCS talent and international expertise, as Immortals signed on Team Liquid's former starting jungler [[Dardoch]],<ref name="dardochjoins">[http://immortals.gg/news/2016/12/07/welcome-to-the-team-dardoch/ Welcome to the Team Dardoch] ''immortals.gg''</ref> [[LCK]] veteran [[Flame]] in the top lane,<ref name="flamejoins">[http://immortals.gg/news/2016/12/09/the-future-is-bright-welcome-flame-to-the-team/ The Future is Bright: Welcome Flame to the Team!] ''immortals.gg''</ref> [[Hong Kong Esports]] support [[Olleh]],<ref name="ollehjoins">[http://immortals.gg/news/2016/12/13/introducing-olleh-as-the-immortals-support/ Introducing Olleh as the Immortals Support!] ''immortals.gg''</ref> and finally [[Dream Team]] AD carry [[Cody Sun]] (formerly '''Massacre''').<ref name="codysunjoins">[http://immortals.gg/news/2016/12/08/welcome-cody-sun-as-the-new-imt-adc/ Welcome Cody Sun as the new IMT ADC!] ''immortals.gg''</ref>
-Immortals's new roster faced its first professional competition at [[IEM_Season_11_-_Gyeonggi|IEM Gyeonggi]] in December 2016. [[Cloud9]] had initially qualified as the second-best North American team, but then received an automatic invitation to the [[IEM_Season_11_-_World_Championship|IEM World Championship]], leaving the Gyeonggi berth to Immortals. At the South Korean tournament, Immortals bested the LMS' [[J Team]] in both best-of-one and best-of-three, despite a loss to [[Samsung Galaxy]], and qualified for the tournament semifinals. There, Immortals lost a series to [[Kongdoo Monster]] and were eliminated.
-====2017 NA LCS Spring Split====
-Immortals competed in the [[League_Championship_Series/North_America/2017_Season/Spring_Season|spring split]] of the 2017 NA LCS, establishing themselves as a solid mid-tier team through the first half of the split.
-== Trivia ==
-* In their second game of the [[League Championship Series/North America/2016 Season/Spring Season|NA LCS 2016 Spring Split]], Immortals both set the record for the fastest game to date in NA LCS history and also achieved the second perfect game ever in NA LCS history.
