'''IlluZion Gaming''' ('''IluZ''') is a professional esports organization based in North Carolina, USA. The team was founded on May 1st, 2011 by Mihir Khadri and Davis Britt. IlluZion Gaming previously had teams in more mainstream esports such as ''Fortnite'', ''Counter Strike: Global Offensive'' and ''Overwatch'', but are now exclusively supporting fighting games and their communities. 

In 2018, they started sponsoring players from the ''Super Smash Bros.'' community, with {{Sm|BONK!}} being their first sponsor. They further extended their roster in 2019 by signing many top smashers from the East Coast and the Washington State (Ismon being the exception, living in Texas). By the end of 2020, IlluZion Gaming also entered the ''Melee'' scene, by signing the {{SSBM|Sheik}} player {{Sm|Spark}} on Halloween<ref>[https://twitter.com/gamingilluzion/status/1322327125345607681 WE WOULD LIKE TO ANNOUNCE OUR FIRST MELEE PLAYER TO OUR ROSTER]</ref> and the {{SSBM|Marth}} player {{Sm|LSD}} on January 6th, 2021. They also created an academy team.
