The Bureau is a highlander team currently competing in ETF2L Premiership and UGC Platinum.

Origin

The Bureau was founded in 2014 for The Highlander Open. The original team name was "The Bureau of Military Science" (hence the tag "BMS"), however it was renamed to "The Bureau" as the military science bit made the team sound a bit naff.

The vast majority of Bureau players started playing during or after The Highlander Open.

Rise to Premiership

After The Highlander Open, The Bureau reformed to play ETF2L Highlander Season 7 in Division 5B, where Chronos gave up his dream of being a Demoman main and swapped to Medic (quite rightly so). The team had a shaky start to the season as a reform combined with having the hardest group left them in 5th place in the main season, many players were disheartened after this season and left which led Chronos to reform the team and Scrambled, the sub heavy at the time, to take a few players to begin The Agency which would later pass players like Apex, Yahoo and Scrambled on to The Bureau.

The Bureau initially planned to use UGC Highlander Season 15 as a test season to trial new players. They lost the first game, which could be attributed to inexperience, as they were undefeated for the rest of the season, beating TC Express rather convincingly in the final, at this point The Bureau were aiming to take a winning team to ETF2L Highlander Season 8's High tier.

The Bureau began ETF2L Highlander Season 8 convincingly, but due to losing the main Scout, Demoman, Heavy and Sniper, who were all very important players to The Bureau, they were unable to make playoffs, leading them to reform the team for the next season.

The Bureau's reform for ETF2L Highlander Season 9 High tier was undefeated. Even though there were many internal issues with the team, there wasn't another team in High that were able to contest The Bureau, with The Bureau trying to get their roster ready for ETF2L Highlander Season 10's Premiership Tier during the main season.

Premiership

The Bureau's went in to ETF2L Highlander Season 10 to try to solidify their position as a Premiership level team. Chronos, at the start of the season, said that the team should be aiming for 3rd place. The team dropped points between week 3 and 5 that they were unhappy about, a few players had other commitments and the roster was forced to be changed. Regardless, The Bureau were still able to take home the 3rd place that was aimed for even after some controversy regarding points lost for warnings, with The Bureau taking the playoff spot that WASP were also desperate for. The team look on to ETF2L Highlander Season 11 with ambition to improve.
