League of Legends
With the takeover of Team 8 by Immortals on October 7, 2015, Immortals also got the starting place of Team 8 in the League of Legends Championship Series . The roster for season 6 was presented on December 8, 2015. It included Heo "Huni" Seung-hoon as top laner, Kim "Reignover" Ui-jin as jungler, Eugene Justice "Pobelter" Park as mid-laner, Jason "WildTurtle" Tran as ADC and Adrian "Adrian" Ma as supporter . After a rather disappointing 2016 season, which ended with only two 3rd places in the League of Legends Championship Series and one non-qualification for the World Cup , almost the entire lineup left the organization. Only Eugene Justice "Pobelter" Park remained loyal to the organization. Then Lee "Flame" Ho-jong joined as top laner, Joshua "Dardoch" Hartnett as jungler, Li Yu "Cody Sun" Sun as ADC and Kim "Olleh" Joo-sung as supporter Immortals. The new lineup reached the semifinals at IEM XI Gyeonggi.

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive
At the second major tournament of the year, the PGL Major: Kraków 2017 , the franchise's first major success was achieved and second place was achieved.
The autumn was marked by controversy, after problems getting to the Dreamhack Open Montreal 2017 you had to give up a game of the online ESL Pro League Season 6 . In Montreal they made it into the final, but three of the players did not appear in time, which meant that the first map had to be given up again and the game was lost 2-0 in a row . After Vito "kNgV-" Giuseppe issued a death threat against a competing player who suspected the three late arriving players were hungover , Giuseppe was internally suspended. In a qualifying game, he defied the ban and played a map without the knowledge of the CEO of Immortals, whereupon the latter removed him from the lineup. The brothers Lucas “LUCAS1” Teles and Henrique “HEN1” Teles then asked to be removed from the active lineup. For the Epicenter 2017 Ricardo "boltz" Prass was loaned to SK Gaming . The team disbanded by January 2018. In June 2018, Immortals signed the SK Gaming players after the contract was terminated there and rebranded Made in Brazil .
