The organization also fielded Smite, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS:GO), Super Smash Bros., Fortnite, H1Z1, Valorant, Dota 2, Overwatch, Hearthstone, Rocket League, Halo, Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege, and Call of Duty teams.

Counter Logic Gaming was founded to compete in League of Legends tournaments by George "HotshotGG" Georgallidis and Alexander "Vodoo" Beutel in April 2010.

[9] On July 2, 2012, HotshotGG stepped down from the position of active CEO of Counter Logic Gaming, citing a wish to focus more on his game-play, and was replaced by his mother, Helen Georgallidis.

[12] The organization also disbanded CLG Black, leaving the original League of Legends team as the only roster under the Counter Logic Gaming banner.

CEO Helen Georgallidis and COO Robert "CyberBob" Del Papa resigned with these announcements, and Kelby May was promoted to general manager for the organization.

[13] Kelby remained at CLG for two years until September 2014, when he stepped down; Matthew "MaTTcom" Marikian was promoted to general manager, while Bryan "bchenN" Chen was hired as the director of finance and operations.

[28] Counter Logic Gaming began as a group of ten League of Legends players in April 2010, originally including Andy "Reginald" Dinh, among others, but solidified as a formal five-man roster, made up of "HotshotGG", Michael "bigfatjiji" Tang, Steve "Chauster" Chau, Sam "Kobe24" Hartman-Kenzler, and Cody "Elementz" Sigfusson.

Despite a loss to Team SoloMid, they advanced from the group stage, but were knocked out of championship contention by FnaticMSI, and forced to fight for an eventual fifth-place finish.

[34] In November 2011, after a disappointing domestic run, including disqualification from MLG Providence 2011, CLG benched Elementz, adding Yiliang "Doublelift" Peng to their active roster.

[39] Having qualified for the playoffs, CLG fell in the first round to eventual champions MiG Blaze, and on April 25, 2012, the team moved back to North America.

[53][54] CLG won their promotion match against bigfatlp's challenger team, Azure Cats, and was allowed to remain in the 2013 NA LCS for the Summer Split.

[60] On November 7 it was announced that Aphromoo and Brian "TrickZ" Ahn would temporarily fill CLG's vacancies for the upcoming Intel Extreme Masters Season VIII Cologne.

[75] A month later, in December, it was announced that LiNk would return to the starting lineup for the forthcoming split, alongside Jake "Xmithie" Puchero, formerly of Team Vulcun.

[77] The new roster made a remarkably strong start to the 2015 Spring NA LCS Split, and just missed out on a playoff bye after losing a second-place regular season tiebreaker to Cloud9.

In the final, Counter Logic Gaming swept their long-term rivals, and became NA LCS champions for the first time, while Doublelift won the first LAN event of his five-year career.

Although they were drawn into what was considered to be the easiest group, CLG finished below Flash Wolves and KOO Tigers, and so failed to progress to the tournament's knockout stage.

The roster of Mike "Wickd" Petersen, Stephen "Snoopeh" Ellis, Henrik "Froggen" Hansen, Peter "Yellowpete" Wüppen, and Mitch "Krepo" Voorspoels became Counter Logic Gaming Europe.

Bloodwater, Zuna, and Sycho Sid went on to play for Team Vulcun, while LiNk was moved up to the Counter Logic Gaming Prime roster, eventually replacing Michael "bigfatlp" Tang.

[129] On December 10, Tony "ZIkz" Gray confirmed a final roster of I KeNNy U, Thinkcard, Tyson "Innox" Kapler, Yuri "KEITHMCBRIEF" Jew and Petar "Unlimited" Georgiev in a comment on the /r/CLG subreddit.

Counter Logic Gaming's potential expansion into Counter-Strike: Global Offensive was first discussed publicly in a December 2014 interview of George "HotshotGG" Georgallidis, who commented, "We're looking at all avenues.

[142] A string of mediocre domestic results bridged the gap to the last major of the year, DreamHack Open Cluj-Napoca, where Counter Logic Gaming was knocked out of their group by Natus Vincere.

[143] The remainder of the year brought equally disappointing results for the team, culminating in a last place finish at the ESL ESEA Pro League Season 2 Finals.

The final iteration of the roster would be completed on August 12, 2022, with the signings of Vivienne "⁠BiBiAhn⁠" Quach, Coline "⁠Kaoday⁠" Le Floc'h and Marissa "⁠madss⁠" Dasta, playing alongside GooseBreeder and uhKelsie.

[163] On April 6, 2023, Counter Logic Gaming disbanded the roster, with the players of CLG Red announcing that they had been released by the organization and had become free agents.

[169] New Jersey–based competitive Smash 4 player and content creator Richard "Keitaro" King Jr. joined Counter Logic Gaming as a video editor on March 9, 2016.

[173] On December 2, 2015, Counter Logic Gaming announced that they had expanded into Call of Duty, after buying the roster of Anthony "Methodz" Zinni, Michael "Blfire" Glushenok, Aaron "CMPLX" Vetelino, and Tyler "FeLony" Johnson from Denial eSports.

[21][22] The team's primary goal was participation in Stage 1 of the 2016 Call of Duty World League (CWL), to which end they attended the North American Pro Division Offline Qualifier.

In the former, CLG Dota placed third in the European group stage, and beat Orange Esports and Team Infused in the playoffs, before losing to PotM Bottom in both the Winners Bracket and Grand Finals, taking home second.

[179] On May 18, 2012, In the middle of these two tournaments, Loda and smulgulig left the team, and CLG picked up Rasmus "MiSeRy" Filipsen and Dominik "Lacoste" Stipic to replace them.
