Ever8 Winners was a Korean team.
History[]
On 14th January 2016 Ever8 sponsored Winners and the team renamed to Ever8 Winners.
2016 Season[]
They kept Murphy, NighT, and BokGu and signed rookies Jay and Odd to complete their roster. In the Spring Split they went undefeated for a long time but also drew too many series which lead them to a 4th place finish with a 5-7-2 record. Starting as 4th and last seed in a KOTH bracket they went down 0-2 against Stardust in round 1 but carried by Night's Azir performances pulled off a reverse sweep. They carried confidence boost into the next series but despite being twice in really good positions they could not close out game 1 against ESC Ever and after that lost the series in clear 1-3 fashion.
Going into Summer Split they only kept Jay and signed Savage from WaY as well as rookies Cheong, Teddy, and YoRi as replacement. After losing their first two series they brought in free agent Jelly and rookie Cepted which seemed to have a great impact as E8W went on to win their next 4 matches before being stopped by Kongdoo in the final week of regular season. In round 1 of playoffs they swept I Gaming Star 2-0 before losing once again against Kongdoo in a clean sweep. They faced Rising Star Gaming in the third-place match for pride and after a series of snowbally games they got 3rd place with a 3-2 victory.
2017 Season[]
Teddy's performances did not go unnoticed and he took the chance to try his luck for LCK team Jin Air. During offseason Jay, Jelly and Savage left the team as well which meant that E8W went into Spring Split with a new roster around midlaner Cepted. The roster consisted of Helper, Malrang, OldB, Deul, Ella and Kkyul and surprisingly went 7-2 in the first 7 weeks only losing series against [CJ Entus]] who ended up staying undefeated for all of regular season. After a shaky end to the split going only 3-2 whilst losing to playoff team BPZ they went into playoffs as second seed of a KOTH bracket. They faced off against BPZ and former player Cheong in semifinals but turned the series around in dominating fashion after they had lost game 1. Because of CJ's invincible split they went as huge underdogs into playoffs and lost game 1 despite it draggin out longer than expected. In game E8W had a slow approach but dominated the game and the rest of the series to complete the upset and go into the promotion tournament as 1st seed from CK.
In round 1 they were clean swept by their former player Teddy and his team Jin Air but they kept their chance at LCK alive by destroying CJ once again. In the second qualifying round they managed to take revenge for the 2016 season against Kongdoo by winning the series convincingly 3-1 and secured themselves a place in LCK.
For the Summer Split they signed experienced Comeback who returned to Korea after a horrible split with Team Vitality. After a 1-1 record in the first week they went on a 5 week and 10 match losing spree during the end of which they brought in rookie Kiin and switched back to Ella in support role. They ended the split in last place with a 3-15 record and went back down to the promotion tournament.
There they faced two of the teams they overcame half a year prior. After a fast series that they lost 1-2 to Kongdoo they won game 1 against CJ Entus. In game 2 they held on for a long time but were ultimately still defeated before getting dominated in game 3 and therefore dropping back down to the Challenger scene.
For the 2017 LoL KeSPA Cup E8W picked up Aegis as support. In round 1 they faced Team BattleComics from challenger and won the series 2-1 despite almost getting perfect-gamed in game 2. In round 2 they faced ROX Tigers and surprisingly won this series 2-1 as well before being drawn to play KT Rolster in quarterfinals where they got clean swept.
2018 Season[]
Following their relegation the whole roster left the organization so they had to build a completely new team. They signed rookies WooFe, SSUN, and HyBrid, free agent Hoglet and Lucifer who returned to Korea from the secondary chinese league LSPL. They struggled at the start of the Spring Split but improved over the course of the split and finished in 5th place which was barely enough to participate in playoffs. Similarly do the year before they started as underdogs but managed to win the semifinals against DAMWON Gaming as well as the finals against Team BattleComics with strong performances both 3-1 to qualify for the promotion tournament. There they faced both participating LCK teams MVP and Kongdoo who showed them their limits as they were absolutely destroyed in the deciding game 3's of both series.
On 31st May Ever8 decided to stop the sponsorship which meant that the team rebranded to Winners.
