Golden Guardians vs FlyQuest

FlyQuest vs. Golden Guardians. Not exactly the most exciting way to start off the day but it might be a bit more competitive than most folks expect -- "might" being the operative word here. FlyQuest are of course better across the board, but they've been pretty darn inconsistent thus far, so it's easy to envision a world in which they struggle against a team that, for all intents and purposes, is amongst the worst in North America.

After failing to secure even a single objective against Cloud9, FlyQuest were able to bounce back in grand fashion againt a very game Team SoloMid. It was the most astounding of turnarounds, and we're still perplexed at their resilience and mental fortitude; to get embarrassed so much and then mount a comeback mere hours afterward -- against one of the best teams in the LCS, no less -- is worthy of the highest praise and commendation. It goes to show just how much potential they really have, but also how inherently inconsistent they truly are.

For FlyQuest, 2021 can best be defined as the year of growing pains. After reaching Worlds last October, this eco-friendly organization was forced to go back to the drawing board and re-build from scratch. And, in all fairness, they've done admirably well given just how big of a hurdle they had to face after losing literally all of their players. They're far from perfect, of course, but they're actively trying to improve and have done more than enough to warrant our benefit of the doubt.

They might not beat the Golden Guardians to a pulp, but they should stil be more than capable enough to get the "W" and add yet another (relatively) solid win on the board.
