Chiefs Esports Club is an Oceanic team.
History[]
In August 2014, the roster of Team Immunity left their organization and formed Exodus Gaming, later rebranded as The Chiefs eSports Club. Their initial roster included Swip3rR, Spookz, Swiffer, Raydere, and Rosey, and that five-man lineup became the longest-standing active roster without any substitutions or changes in history, unbroken for 608 days. In May 2015, that streak was broken when Rosey left the team to join Sin Gaming and was replaced by EGym. Despite their roster change, the Chief's lineup remained at the top of their region for the duration of the 2015 season, with OPL victories all four periods of the OPL: split 1, split 1 playoffs, split 2, and split 2 playoffs. Internationally, they fared less well, placing fifth at the International Wildcard Invitational in April and second at the International Wildcard Qualifier for Worlds.
In 2016, the Chiefs placed second for the first time domestically in the first OPL split but still upset the first-place Legacy eSports in the playoffs, to return to the IWCI once again. They then qualified at IEM Challenger for IEM Season 11 - Oakland – their first competition against teams from major regions – but lost 2-0 against Longzhu Gaming despite standout performances from Swiffer as Orianna.
