Alliance with Rogue

[edit]

On October 6, 2022, Goatch Global, the parent company of KOI, announced a strategic alliance with Infinite Reality and its brand ReKTGlobal, owner of Rogue.[2] This union meant that all Rogue teams (League of Legends (LEC), Rainbow Six and Rocket League) began playing as KOI in the 2023 season.

Following poor sporting results that are difficult to achieve in the short term, along with financial problems due to non-payment by Infinite Reality, the union ended on November 3, 2023.[3][4]

Triple merger with MAD Lions and Movistar Riders

[edit]

On January 4, 2024, Goatch Global (KOI) was acquired along with Team RandomK Esports (Movistar Riders) by OverActive Media, the owner of MAD Lions. OAM decided to merge the three Spanish organizations under the KOI brand, competing for the 2024 season as Movistar KOI and MAD Lions KOI. On February 28, it was announced that Movistar renewed its contract as the main sponsor for three more years until the end of 2026, having sponsored Riders since 2017.

At the Movistar KOI-Con event held on December 6, 2024 at the Palacio Vistalegre in Madrid, the final merger was announced, with the organization now competing solely as Movistar KOI.

2023

The team entered the LEC in 2023 following a collaboration agreement with Rogue.[9] The entire roster was maintained except in the top lane, where Mathias “Szygenda” Jensen was signed.[10]

In their debut winter split, the team managed to qualify for the playoffs, finishing in 3rd position. In spring the team managed to enter the group stage, finishing in 6th position.

For the summer split, the team signed Henk “Advienne” Reijenga as their new support.[11] They managed to enter the group stage but failed to qualify for the playoffs, finishing in 8th position.

2024

After ending their collaboration with Rogue, KOI remained in the LEC through a new merger with MAD Lions (along with Movistar Riders). The new team became known as MAD Lions KOI (MDK) and announced its new roster for 2024, consisting of four rookies: Álex “Myrwn” Villarejo as top, Bartłomiej “Fresskowy” Przewoźnik as mid, David “Supa” Martínez as bot, and Álvaro “Alvaro” Fernández as support.[12] All of them led by Javier “Elyoya” Prades in the jungle.

In their first split, the team qualified for playoffs with a 5–4 record. After losing to Fnatic 0–2 in the upper bracket, the team went on a winning streak to the split final, defeating GIANTX (2–0), Team Vitality (2–0), Fnatic (3–2), and Team BDS (3–2). In the final, they started by winning the first map but ultimately fell 1–3 to G2 Esports.[13]

In the spring they once again made it into the playoffs with a 4–5 record. In the playoffs, they lost to G2 Esports 0–2, dropping to the lower bracket. After defeating GIANTX 2–1, they finally lost to Team Vitality 0–2, being eliminated from the split and failing to qualify for the 2024 Mid-Season Invitational.[14]

In the summer split they miraculously qualified for the playoffs on the last day after beating Rogue in the last regular match and winning two tiebreakers against Rogue and Team Vitality. In playoffs, they lost 1–2 in first round of upper bracket against Team BDS after dominating the series.[15] They were eventually eliminated by Karmine Corp after a disappointing series.[16]

With 200 points accumulated during the season, the team qualified for the Season Finals in 4th place. After defeating G2 Esports 3–2 in the upper bracket semifinals, the team fell to Fnatic 2–3 in the following round. In the lower bracket final, they were ultimately eliminated by G2 Esports, thus qualifying for the 2024 World Championship as the third and final seed.[17] At Worlds, the team advanced to the Swiss stage after winning their first two games in the play-in against Vikings Esports and PSG Talon.[18] In the Swiss stage, the team was eliminated after losing all three of their matches against Bilibili Gaming, PSG Talon and GAM Esports.[19]

2025

The team retained its entire roster except for the mid position. On December 6, 2024, Joseph “Jojopyun” Joon-pyun became the new midlaner, becoming the first player imported from North America to Europe.[20] On the same day, it was announced that the team would be renamed Movistar KOI.

2022

KOI entered the Superliga after acquiring the place of Astralis SB.[21] On 15 December 2021, at the showmatch against Karmine Corp, they presented their roster consisting of: Enzo “SLT” González, Luis “Koldo” Pérez, Jørgen “Hatrixx” Elgåen, Rafa “Rafitta” Ayllón and Daniel “seaz” Binderhofer.

For summer the bot lane was completely renewed with the entry of Josip “Jopa” Čančar and Paul “Stend” Lardin as bot and support, respectively.[24] The team finished in 3rd place.

2024

In 2024 the team became known as Movistar KOI after the merger with MAD Lions and Movistar Riders. The team was completely revamped for spring: Pedro José “Marky” Serrano as top; Will Antony “NoName” Jones as jungle; Adam “Random” Grepl as mid; Đorđe “Shy Carry” Stišović as bot; and Igor “marlon” Tomczyk as support.[25] The team qualified for the playoffs and finished in 6th place.

2025

On 6 September 2025, Riot Games terminated Movistar KOI’s partnership slot in the European VCT, which they had since 2023, citing violations of the Team Participation Agreement. Ibai stated that Riot did this without any prior warning, despite MKOI already hiring a coach for 2026, and floated the possibility that Riot would give their spot to Gentle Mates, a French organization who had been relegated from the VCT in 2025 but had a loyal following and strong viewership.[53] On 7 October, Riot would officially announce that Gentle Mates would replace MKOI as a European VCT partner.[54]

[edit]

The Navy General Command (海軍総隊, Kaigun Sōtai) was an organization of the Imperial Japanese Navy established on April 25, 1945, towards the end of the Pacific War. [ 1 ] The Navy General Command was responsible for the command of the Combined Fleet, all Area Fleets, all Naval and Guard Districts, and the General Headquarters for Maritime Escort Fleet, and was responsible for the command of all Navy units.

The title of the position leading the Navy General Command was Commander-in-Chief of the Navy, who served as both Commander-in-Chief of the Combined Fleet and Commander-in-Chief of the Maritime Escort Fleet. The first Commander-in-Chief, Admiral Soemu Toyoda, was transferred within a month, and the next Commander-in-Chief, Vice Admiral Jisaburo Ozawa, refused the promotion to Admiral that came with the appointment of Commander-in-Chief. The position was abolished on October 10th after Japan’s defeat in the war.

Until now, most of the Imperial Japanese Navy’s main battleships belonged to the Combined Fleet. However, after the defeat in the Battle of Leyte Gulf in October 1944 , the Combined Fleet was weakened, and in April 1945 , the battleship Yamato and the 2nd Fleet invaded Okinawa (a kamikaze attack at sea), virtually destroying the Combined Fleet. The surviving ships were unable to operate due to lack of fuel, and were downgraded to guard ships of the Naval District.

The situation called for unified military operations, including maritime escort forces, in the waters near the mainland, and the Imperial Navy Order No. 36 of January 1, 1945 placed the forces of the General Headquarters for Maritime Escort and the Naval Bases under the command of the Commander-in-Chief of the Combined Fleet. [ 1 ] In order to further streamline and clarify the chain of command, the wartime organizational reform of April 25 established the Navy General Command, which was to be commanded by the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy. [ 1 ] The staff of the Navy General Command was concurrently held by the Combined Fleet command. [ 1 ] The Commander-in-Chief of the Navy was also expected to serve as the supreme commander of the special attack forces and escort vessels.

After Vice Admiral Jisaburo Ozawa assumed his post, the Southeast Area Fleet and the Southwest Area Fleet were removed from Ozawa’s chain of command and placed under the direct command of the Imperial General Headquarters. This was due to the Imperial Japanese Navy’s practice that the commanders of both fleets, Vice Admirals Junichi Kusaka and Denshichi Okawachi, were senior to Ozawa despite being contemporaries of Ozawa, and that since communication between their respective headquarters had already been severed, it was not possible to replace them with new ones, and therefore the senior commander could not be under the command of his successor.
