eUnited have acquired a spot in the North American League of Legends Challenger Series and have signed former LCS coaches Tadayoshi "Hermit" Littleton and Ram "Brokenshard" Djemal to head up their coaching staff.

The team's announcement on Facebook Tuesday explained that Brokenshard will act as strategic coach, while Hermit will be responsible for head coaching duties. This is the first entry into LoL for eUnited, who are known primarily for their Call of Duty, Gears of War and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive rosters.

The announcement did not disclose who eUnited acquired their spot from, but general manager Dan "Clerkie" Clerke later told PVPLive that the spot was purchased from Team Liquid Academy. Clerke is also a co-owner and the chief executive officer of Enemy, who fielded a team in the NA LCS in 2015.

The organization plans to use an unconventional method to find potential recruits. They will hold a scouting tournament that is set to start on Nov. 28 where 15 top NA Challenger players, three of each role, will play in a four-day training regimen.

"This scouting tournament will be run by our two League of Legends coaches with the goal of finding players that exhibit the; talent, drive, mentality and potential to achieve greatness within our organization," the team wrote in the announcement. "On top of that, we also believe that giving our players the tools necessary to compete with the best will ultimately make them the best, which means we will be sending our League of Legends NACS squad to Korea for a bootcamp in order to best prepare them for the upcoming NACS challenger split."

The announcement further explained that coaches would be working closely with players during the tournament, and that they should bring their a-game.

Potential applicants for the tournament must be a minimum of 16 years old, have a rating of Masters 400 LP or higher by the end of Season 6, and possess a valid passport in the event that they are selected to travel with the team to Korea.
