RoXKis was a top rated Brood War team internationally; their lineup included some of the best Russian/Ukrainian players around. The organization is supported by the main Russian community website, GoodGame.ru, along with their main sponsors Kaspersky, Kingston, Razer and USN Computers.

RoXKis also has divisions in Point Blank, World Of Warcraft, Starcraft: Brood War, Starcraft 2, Quake Live, Need For Speed, and FIFA.

RoXKis originally had a Dota 2 team starting in 2013. In June of 2013, some of their players were implicated in betting fraud over a StarLadder match versus zRage.

Alexei “Solo” Berezin received a lifetime ban from StarLadder events, while Stanislav “BzzIsPerfect” Glushan, Vladimir “yol” Basov, Andrey “Dread” Golubev received 3-year bans. RoXKis was banned from StarLadder for a year. The ruling was shortened soon after. On June 21st, Solo was removed from the team after admitting his involvement in the incident.

After numerous roster changes, the organization parted ways with their Dota 2 squad, in May 2014.
