Lyon Gaming is a professional League of Legends team from Latin America. In November 2017 it was determined that the organization did not own the rights to its branding or logo, and the team rebranded to Rainbow7 for the 2018 Season.
History[]
Lyon was founded by Karzek, FraGio, and Nikez in the early 2013 with the sole purpose of creating a highly competitive team for its region. Even though the squad did not make any early major appearance, they were considered to be one of the top contenders from Latin America since the start due to their player’s individual skill and achievements.
In late April, Porky joined as their first Sub while Seiya replaced their former AD Carry, Cpt Cahdez.
On May 14, Carreira decided to leave the team to pursue his own personal goals. NerzhuL joined briefly after to fulfill the Support role.
2015 Preseason[]
Lyon Gaming qualified for IEM San Jose with a roster consisting of Porky, Thyak, Seiya, NerzhuL, and Arce. However, NerzhuL and Arce were unable to attend the event due to visa issues, and so Maplestreet and Dodo8, the bot lane of Team 8 substituted for the team. They were eliminated in the quarterfinals, losing 0-2 to Unicorns of Love and tied for fifth place with paiN Gaming.
