BraWL eSports was a Latin American eSports team. Having originally set out to become the best League of Legends team in Latin America, this dream, unfortunately, didn’t come true. However, BraWL eSports did compete across a variety of different LoL tournaments as well as the LoL Division, experiencing relative success along the way. The main problem was the constant chopping and changing of the player roster, which eventually led to the team disbanding.

Active: 2013 – 2017
Back in 2013, BraWL eSports arrived on the scene. Their founding members were:
- Gustavo “h4ckerv2” Leyva
- Gerardo “Genre” González
- Dan “Shakita” Villagomez
- Rodrigo “Xelth” Villanueva
- Fernando “Renack” Sánchez
- Jaime “Jamón” Villaseñor
Since then, some of these players have progressed and joined other teams, while some have retired from competitive eSports.
At the end of 2013, “Renack” and “Xelth” decided to leave the team in quick succession. “Renack” was ultimately replaced by “Urek Mazino0”.
In 2013, the big ‘Liga Exodo’ tournament took place. At the last minute, BraWL eSports managed to get “GeneralMint” to join the team to play as their ADC (attack damage carry). However, after participating in the tournament, “GeneralMint” subsequently left the group.
Unfortunately, over the next 12 months, BraWL eSports continued to experience problems when it came to their player roster. As a result, there was a collective agreement to make the organization more ‘professional’, which led to a psychologist and two expert coaches being hired to drive the team forward. This seemed to work in the short term until 2016 came around, and new problems emerged.
In October 2016, an entirely new roster was formed. The new BraWL eSports roster consisted of the following:
- Andrés Felipe “Bazu” Campos Núñez
- Daniel “Queso” Coronado
- James “Seifer” Quesada
- Daniel “Kovako” Duarte
- Li “Lyng” Ng
On top of this, “Koifish” joined to play as a coach and analyst – not as a player.
In 2017, the new roster disbanded, ultimately signaling the end of the BraWL eSports team. Still, you can follow BraWL eSports on Twitter and Instagram.
