FC Schalke 04 is an eSports team competing in the European League of Legends Championship Series (EU LCS), the top level of professional League of Legends in Europe. The team is referred to by themselves as Schalke 04 Esports to distinguish them from their parent organisation's football club. Matches are played in the Am Studio 20D in Adlershof, Berlin.
The team previously played in the European League of Legends Challenger Series (EU CS) after being relegated in the 2017 EU LCS Spring Promotion tournament, but returned to the LCS after defeating the Ninjas in Pyjamas 3-0 in the 2018 EU LCS Spring Promotion tournament.
In 2016, FC Schalke 04 opened an eSports department and acquired the League of Legends team Elements, becoming the fourth football (soccer) team with a LoL division after Beşiktaş (that acquired the roster of Turkish team Aces High the previous year), Santos and Remo. They are set to play in the European League of Legends Championship Series, officially organized by developer Riot Games and the top level of professional League of Legends competition in Europe. The club also announced former Rot-Weiß Oberhausen and Sportfreunde Siegen midfielder and SK Gaming co-founder Tim Reichert as Head of eSport.
