Five victories, thirteen defeats and finishing ninth. That’s what the 2019 Summer Split of LCS came to an end for FlyQuest. Obviously, a move was inevitable, but our League of Legends Analysts weren’t pleased whenever FlyQuest said it had recruited Tristan “PowerOfEvil” Schrage and Lee “IgNar” Dong-geun.
As an objective entity, it’s easy to focus on outcomes. Seeing a performance of 5-13 is easy to conclude that a directional shift will probably not alter. Therefore this season we are shocked as FlyQuest brought a 2-0. Yet that is the probable scenario for PowerOfEvil.
He didn’t see a ninth-place squad before reaching FlyQuest. Rather, during the first week, he had seen the creation of a squad with immaculate teamwork. Until taking part, PowerOfEvil remembered his feelings about FlyQuest, he respects Jason “WildTurtle” Tran for his capacity to effectively generate high figures of damage and, for the lack of qualifications, he was particularly surprised on the potential of Omran “V1per” Shoura. By far the most notable, Lucas “Santorini” Tao Kilmer Larsen and IgNar were called out by PowerOfEvil.
As per PowerOfEvil, Santorin has been wanting to practice with PowerOfEvil before his time on OpTic.
“I expected us to actually do good, because we had a lot of success in scrims,” PowerOfEvil told Dot Esports after his victory against former team CLG. “The team atmosphere was really good. Overall, everything was going really good.”
“[Santorin] saw the potential in me and my last two years were really strong in NA,” PowerOfEvil said. “I think he first approached me after OpTic and then once more after CLG.”
POE said, “That’s really important that the mid jungle wants to play together and they want to work together”.
When determining the possible triumph of the players, Santorini’s propensity for PowerOfEvil hit the present Flyquest mid laner. It was a display of their teamwork in the middle and the jungle.
The diehards of League witnessed the power of this strong midlane and jungle pair year after year. The 2019 season saw FunPlus Phoenix earning a world championship due to the pair of Kim “Doinb” Tae-sang and Gao “Tian” Tian-Liang. The jungler and mid ability to synergize together and push the game for the remaining portion of their squad is the fundamental part of what makes Lee “Faker” Sang-hyeok and T1 so powerful.
Different from the top and bot sides, the middle lane also has a central location to switch between all the three lanes. Just in the same way, jungle will apply force on the map without being firmly attached to a lane. When they are together, they will completely regulate the average pace of a current game by themselves.
This is possibly fully known to PowerOfEvil. Assuming that he would find a squad that wished to collaborate collectively, FlyQuest’s performance of the 1st week contributed to his hopes.
Those two previously colleagues had been in LEC as far as IgNar was concerned. Both had been playing at Misfits in 2017 once the group came second in the summer and managed to finish fourth throughout the Worlds, a match from defeating T1 in the 5 game series. Although they have been working together for several seasons, as per Power OfEvil they established FlyQuest for a self-confident start.
“We know each other, we know each other’s needs,” retorted PowerOfEvil. “The first week, too, I found that was very beneficial. We ‘re already like kinda on the same page.”
The past weekend viewers noticed the spontaneous cohesion of FlyQuest, including in the match versus CLG. The intensity of the game was built by Santorini’s early gank in PowerOfEvil’s lane. If it was PowerOfEvil lane switching to bot to start taking the very first building with Santorin or even IgNar attempting to set up plays with his squad to try to emulate, FlyQuest began to look like they might have also performed a run of games around each other. Before missing something, FlyQuest took three dragons along with all the external structures of CLG by 19 minutes.
The 2-0 opening of FlyQuest revealed playoff squad outlines. Even though it’s the start. PowerOfEvil has stated that the ongoing prosperity of FlyQuest relies on its willingness to adjust and develop its goods. Fresh updates are being published, different champions are launched, teams are improving and if they choose to be on the highest level, FlyQuest should stay on top of their competition.
While the season develops, we will learn whether the beginning of FlyQuest is a determinant of a revitalized squad, or whether the reliability is not supposed to be reiterated. Till then, PowerOfEvil suspects FlyQuest will also be positioned on all radars.
