Machi Esports is a professional esports organization founded by Taiwanese hip hop group Machi. It has a League of Legends division and formerly had an Overwatch team. Machi's League of Legends division previously had a team competing in the LMS and an academy team competing in the ECS named MachiX.[1] Machi sold its spot in the LMS to Alpha Esports in late 2018,[2] and although it still maintains the MachiX roster, the ECS is no longer in operation.
