Cloud9 is a North American eSports organisation currently fielding teams in Hearthstone, League of Legends, Smite, Super Smash Bros. Melee, Dota 2, Heroes of the Storm, Halo, CS:GO, Overwatch, and Rocket League. C9 first started out as a small League of Legends team, as they qualified for the LCS for the first time, Jack Etienne, the current Owner and General Manager decided to pick the team up and ever since has grown exponentially over the years.
The Cloud9 organisation will represent London in the Overwatch League, although under a new brand[1], the London Spitfire.
