Dallas Fuel has unveiled its roster competing in the 2026 Overwatch Champions Series (OWCS) season.
The team, owned by North American esports organisation ENVY, will begin its season at the OWCS Pre-Season Bootcamp taking place from February 12th to 15th.
Announced on January 22nd, the roster marks Dallas Fuel’s return to Overwatch esports, three years after fielding a team in the now-defunct Overwatch League (OWL). During its six-year tenure in the franchised league, the team won the league in 2022.
The roster includes the North American trio of Christopher ‘Cjay‘ Smith, Rocco ‘Kronik‘ Iacobacci, and Luke ‘Lukemino‘ Fish, who will play the roles of Support and DPS. The pair of Cjay and Kronik joins after representing Spacestation Gaming in 2025, while Lukemino makes the step up to the OWCS after winning the Overwatch Collegiate Homecoming Fall 2025 Open under the Illinois State University banner.
“We are very excited to return to Overwatch and also very happy to welcome this roster as an OWCS partner,” said ENVY owner Mike ‘Hastr0‘ Rufail on social media. “This is a new beginning for the most storied team in Overwatch esports history.”
Joining the American trio is the South Korean pair of Park ‘SeonJun‘ Seon-jun and Kim ‘Kellan‘ Min-jae. In 2025, Kellan represented Spacestation Gaming from January to August, while SeonJun joins from WAY, which ended 2025 with victory at the G-Star Cup.
OWCS Pre-Season Bootcamp 2026 Details
The Pre-Season Bootcamp is the first opportunity OWCS partner teams gain access to unreleased content and the competitive build of Overwatch 2. Taking place from February 12th to 15th in Seoul, South Korea, 11 partner teams and an invited Japanese roster will take part in the showmatch.
Although no prize pool is on the line, the bootcamp provides teams with an opportunity to test their respective line-ups before Stage 1 of the OWCS begins in March.
Dallas Fuel is one of the most recognisable names in Overwatch esports. With ENVY’s recent return to esports, it’s no surprise to see the organisation revive the brand as it returns to the hero shooter title.
