Karmine Corp (; or simply KCorp) is a French professional esports organization incorporated and headquartered in Paris, France. The team employs professional players across six divisions, namely League of Legends, TrackMania, Teamfight Tactics, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Valorant and Rocket League.
Founded as Kameto Corp on 30 March 2020 by Twitch streamer duo Kamel "Kameto" Kebir and Zouhair "Kotei" Darji, the team took its current name when streamer and entrepreneur Amine "Prime" Mekri joined it as a founding member and joint owner on 16 November 2020. Under its new leadership, the organization underwent a major restructuring and purchased Nantes-based Team Oplon's Ligue française de League of Legends (or LFL) slot, thereby replacing it beginning with the 2021 season of France's top-level national league.
In 2023, Karmine Corp's League of Legends division was EMEA Masters titleholder. With their 2022 European Masters Spring Split victory, they became the first team to win it thrice, as well as the first team to win a hat-trick. Karmine Corp's Rocket League team won the WePlay Esports Invitational (EMEA region) in 2021. The group's Rocket League team also won the RLCS Fall and Winter EU Regional tournaments held in 2022 and 2023, as well as the RLCS Winter Split Major tournament in 2023. In October 18th, 2023, Kameto announced the team would be joining the LEC after acquiring stake in the slot owned by Danish esports organisation Astralis.
Karmine Corp has had rights to operate esports events and tournaments at Les Arènes, a 3,000-seat venue in Paris, since May 2024. The organization is also part of the Esports World Cup Foundation Club Support Program, funded by the Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund, which gives organizations like Karmine Corp monetary resources if they want to expand into new esports and if they promote the Esports World Cup effectively. In January 2026, Amine "Prime" Mekri, one of the founder of the structure, left the organization after he was accused of "inappropriate behavior" by several former employees in an investigation led by the media outlet "Revue 21".
Divisions Valorant Karmine Corp entered Valorant in May 2022, signing the roster of Amilwa, mikee, Shin, TakaS and Newzera. On 22 September 2022, they were announced as one of the 10 partner teams for the Valorant EMEA league.
