Curse found themselves outside of the LCS following the summer split, where their 4th place in rankings earned them a spot in the tournament's playoffs. At the playoffs, however, their fortunes had dissapeared as they lost their quarterfinals series against Dignitas with a 2-1 score in favour of the latter team. In the eventual 6th/5th place decider, they were onced again trounced, losing to CLG in a 2-0 sweep.
Competing with their new roster (now consisting of Quas, IWD, Voyboy, Cop and Zekent) in NACL has earned them a 19-5 record in overall matches, cementing them as one of the top two teams in their conference. The first place of the conference is held by Team Coast who lead with a score of 22-2.
