Misfits Gaming was created after the ban of their original parent organization, {{Team|Renegades}}, from the ''League of Legends'' competitive scene, which detained an American squad and a European squad called Renegades Banditos. While their American team's spot was quickly sold to {{Team|Team Envy}}, Renegades Banditos rebranded as a brand new team, picking up the original name of their former parent organization: '''Misfits''', before eventually rebranding as Misfits Gaming. In a few years, they became a major western esports organization. Misfits Gaming detains also two separate team brands, The Florida Mayhem and The Florida Mutineers, playing in the ''Overwatch'' League and ''Call of Duty'' League respectively. They also previously owned a ''Counter-Strike: Global Offensive'' and an ''Apex Legends'' team. | ||
