FC Schalke 04 Esports is the esports division of German sports club FC Schalke 04.
History
FC Schalke 04 Esports was announced on May 16, 2016, having purchased the EU LCS Summer 2016 seed and roster of Elements.[1] Their roster included Steve, Gilius, MrRalleZ, and sprattel from Elements's Spring Season lineup, with Fox from Unicorns of Love replacing Eika. With the acquisition, FC Schalke 04 became the second professional sports organization to sign a League of Legends team, after Beşiktaş acquired Aces High in 2015.
2016 Season
Although Schalke began the summer split with a respectable 3-5-2 match record, in fourth place, they had slid to eighth by the split's end and were required to compete in the 2017 Spring Promotion tournament. There, they lost 1-3 to Team ROCCAT and 1-3 to Misfits, becoming the only 2016 Summer EU LCS team to be relegated. By the end of the year, all the team's players had departed.
2017 Season
Starting from scratch in the new year, FC Schalke signed Smittyj, loulex, SELFIE, Upset, and VandeR.[2] With the exception of the rookie Upset, each of the team's players had at least a full split of LCS experience. Now competing in the 2017 Challenger Series, Schalke became the first ever European team to go undefeated throughout an entire CS regular season, posting a 5-0-0 series record.
2019 Season
On November 20, Riot Games announced Schalke 04 as one of the ten partner teams for the LEC 2019 Spring Split.[3]
