After a terrible 2012 season that saw only four wins, the Stealth rebounded in 2013, winning three of their first four games on their way to a 9–7 record. They tied with the Calgary Roughnecks for the best record in the West, but were seeded second due to tiebreakers. In the playoffs, the Stealth defeated the Edmonton Rush and Calgary Roughnecks to advance to the Championship game for the third year in the last four.
The Stealth earned the right to host the Championship game, but the Comcast Arena was booked, so the game was moved to the Langley Events Centre in Langley, British Columbia. The Rochester Knighthawks defeated the Stealth 11–10 to win their second straight Championship.
