Biography
2015 Season
Gwon "Sangyoon" Sang-yun joined Anarchy in 2014 as their AD carry before the start of ITENJOY NLB Summer 2014 where they made it to the platinum league but lost in the second round 2-0 to Incredible Miracle 2. They played in Challenger Korea Spring 2015 Series 1 and won with a 3-2 victory over Winners. Anarchy didn't fare so well in the Challenger Korea Spring 2015 Series 2 where they lost 2-0 in the first round to Hungry. They still earned enough points to qualify for the Champions Summer 2015 Promotion where they qualified for SBENU Champions Summer 2015 after going 1-1 against Incredible Miracle and Winners. Anarchy placed eighth during the regular season and missed playoffs but they qualified for the next season of LCK.
2016 Preseason
Rebels Anarchy played in the 2015 LoL KeSPA Cup where they lost 2-1 in the quarterfinals to Ever. On December 29, Rebels Anarchy renamed to the Afreeca Freecs.
2016 Season
The Afreeca Freecs started the 2016 LCK Spring Split as a bottom three team, losing many of their sets during the first round robin. This changed after their 2-1 upset over SK Telecom T1 in Week 6, which marked the start of a streak of wins that resulted in an exceptional second round robin where they went 7-2 in sets and cliched the final, fifth playoff spot in what many labeled as a "Cinderella Story." Unfortunately, during the first round of the 2016 LCK Spring Playoffs, they lost 2-0 to the Jin Air Green Wings, giving them fifth place overall for the spring split.
During the 2016 LCK Summer Split, the Afreeca Freecs went 8-10 in series. Notably, they beat reigning LCK champions SK Telecom T1 2-0 in series perfectly with a 4-0 game score. This was enough to earn them fifth place in the regular season and a spot in the first round of the 2016 LCK Summer Playoffs. In the first round, the Freecs met Samsung Galaxy, who beat them 2-0, earning the Freecs fifth place overall for the split. Their accumulated points earned them a spot in the first round of the 2016 Season Korea Regional Finals, where they beat the Jin Air Green Wings 3-2 before losing to Samsung Galaxy 3-1 in a rematch.
