This lineup is headlined by the much-anticipated reunion of two seasoned veterans: Hung “Karsa” Hao-Hsuan and Hu “SwordArt” Shuo-Chieh.
A Powerhouse Reunion in PCS

With the integration of Karsa and SwordArt, CFO positions itself as a formidable force capable of challenging top teams from major regions, including EMEA, North America, China, and Korea. The PCS has historically been a breeding ground for teams that disrupt the international League of Legends esports scene, and CFO’s latest roster seems poised to continue this legacy.
CFO’s complete lineup for the 2024 season includes:
