Dallas Fuel is an American professional Overwatch team based in Dallas, Texas. The Fuel compete in the Overwatch League (OWL) as a member of the league's East region.
Founded in 2017, Dallas Fuel is one of the league's twelve founding teams and is one of two professional Overwatch teams based in Texas (the other, Houston Outlaws). The Fuel became the first team to play a home match, as they hosted the "Dallas Fuel Homestand Weekend" at the Allen Event Center in 2019; Dallas will host five homestands in 2020 at various locations. The team is owned by esports organization OpTic Gaming.
Kyle "KyKy" Souder was appointed the team's first head coach, but after a disappointing first half of the 2018 season, he was replaced by Aaron "Aero" Atkins. Atkins led the team to a Stage 4 playoff berth in 2018 but could not bring the Fuel to the Overwatch League season playoffs. After a disappointing start to the 2020 season, the Fuel released Atkins, and in the 2021 offseason, the Fuel signed former Paris Eternal head coach Yun "RUSH" Hee-won as their new head coach, who, in 2021, led the team to a midseason tournament title and the franchise's first season playoff appearance. The Fuel won their first OWL championship in the 2022 season after defeating the San Francisco Shock, 4–3, in the 2022 Grand Finals.
