In January 2014, Team LoLPro attempted to join Riot Games' newly created North American Challenger Series (NACS), but failed to do so after being knocked out in the first round of the online qualifier.[10] The team successfully qualified for the second half of the NACS Spring Season, but was eliminated in the quarterfinals by vVv Gaming on 9 March.[11] This loss meant Team LoLPro missed out on a seed into the Spring Playoffs, and Nyjacky was replaced by Devon "Hoodstomp" Mark two days later.[12][13] In the first half of the NACS Summer Season, the team qualified once again, and progressed to the final before they were beaten by Team Coast at Wembley Arena on 22 June.[14] This second-place finish meant that Team LoLPro automatically qualified for the second half of the Summer Season. Neither Hoodstomp nor Lohpally played in the team's semifinal defeat against Curse Academy, and were instead replaced by Jordan "Patoy" Blackburn and Peter "Heartbeat" Lim.[15] Hoodstomp announced his retirement that same day.[16] The team was then beaten by Team 8 in the third-place-match on 1 August 2014, with Lohpally playing again in place of Heartbeat, giving Team LoLPro the third seed into the NACS Summer Playoffs.[17]
At the Summer Playoffs, Team LoLPro played with Derek "Zignature" Shao in place of Lohpally, who had been moved to a substitute position. The team beat
Team Curse OCE
On 4 April 2014, Team Curse expanded their League of Legends presence into the Oceanic region, and acquired Little Wraith, re-branding them as Team Curse OCE. This team's initial roster was Nikolo "Kolo" Tayag, Bradley "Chelby" Williams, Lae-Young "Keane" Jang, Richard "Perfection" Su and Cameron "Charlie" Thompson.[26] On 23 April, Charlie announced that he was no longer a member of Team Curse OCE, and was then replaced by Richard "Airy" Cu https://twitter.com/Oce_Charlie/status/458957153701609472

Team Curse (LV, NY, Orange and Black)

Before MLG Dallas Curse decided to pick up Team Dare, which consisted of Ryan "
Before the first event of Call of Duty ghosts there were many roster changes that took place within Team Curse. Two teams were formed, Curse Las Vegas and Curse New York. Curse LV consisted of
Both teams then went into the Call of Duty Championship Regional LAN Qualifiers to qualify for the $1,000,000 prize pool better known as the Call of Duty Championship. Curse LV had suffered major turmoil in the run up to his event, with Parasite and KiLLa constantly arguing, which many people speculated would cost them at the Call of Duty Championships. Curse LV were up against Rise Nation in round 1 of the winners bracket, but suffered a shock defeat that put them down into the losers bracket. Curse NY then suffered defeat at the hands of Team JusTus, meaning that the two Curse teams would face off in a family feud with the loser not qualifying for the Call of Duty Championships. The match went to a game 5, with Curse NY coming out on top. However, they would still have to beat OpTic Gaming for the chance to compete in LA for their share of the $1,000,000. They lost 3-1 leaving the Curse organization with no teams in the Call of Duty Championships. This obviously led to a massive roster shake up with Season 2 of the online CoD league coming up. Eventually, Curse became two teams - Curse Black and Curse Orange.
The roster of Curse Black was
At Anaheim the teams once again had very mixed fortunes. Curse Black had an excellent event, finishing 4th after making an excellent losers bracket run beating
Prior to the new Call of Duty Advanced Warfare season, Team Curse and Most Wanted have decided to merge their organizations and compete under the Team Curse banner moving forward. The purpose of this move is to combine two of the top Call of Duty organizations in an effort to produce higher quality competition in Advanced Warfare and to help grow Call of Duty eSports as a whole.
Most Wanted’s current group of managers will be moving over and collaborating with the current Team Curse infrastructure. Team Curse is happy to welcome back Crs Blevdog, as well as welcome Crs Felon and Crs Grayzilla to the team.
Currently the roster for the new team is undecided and more details will be coming at a later time. Team Curse would like to thank all of the fans that continue to support us, and management promises to continue to strive for the ultimate goal of a world championship.

Team Curse Youth
12 January 2014
Curse Call of Duty is excited to announce that they will be creating a brand new team, Curse Youth. Curse Youth is being formed to provide a home to top players that are younger than the required age of eighteen.
"I understand Activision's basis for making the age restrictions for Call of Duty Champs. These players are some of the best players in the world and they need a chance to compete at the highest level while working in a solid organization."
