Turtle

Why has Turtle been bouncing around and not sticking anywhere since his first release from TSM? He was on Immortals, i think cool, he's on a good team to still be Turtle, dive in, faceroll into 5 people, his support does some crazy stuff and he gets a triple before dying out of position. Then Huni, Reignover and Adrian leave Immortals, i think, well damn, at least Turtle and Pobelter are still there, then he leaves for TSM. He wasnt a good fit hence why they released him, and he's gone once again to Flyquest, and i honestly dont think its fair to Altec as a way to learn when Turtle is probably going to leave Flyquest after the summer split. Does he never get along with his supports or something? He's gone through Lustboy, Gleeb, Kasing, Xpecial and YellowStar on TSM alone before they got rid of Turtle himself. I just want him to stay in one place and just help a team be as good as he helped make Immortals, i mean shit even TSM did well without having a major shot caller because Turtle was and is still good. Just wish he'd stay with a team.

I'm not sure why you think WT leaves teams an abnormal amount. He's played for two teams prior to FQ, Immortals and TSM. He played on TSM for, iirc, 3 years, was booted because DL became available and DL is just a straight upgrade over WT. He left Immortals because the players he was playing with all left and he got an offer to rejoin TSM. Now TSM has DL again and he wants to play with his original team pre LCS in FQ (he was on Quantic with Hai, Lemon and Balls, he left because TSM called him in as a sub and he got a penta in his first game; the Quantic players all told him to take the TSM offer rather than stay with them)

I highly, HIGHLY doubt WT bails on FQ. Nothing in his career to date suggests that he leaves teams for no reason and FQ is full of his friends.

2013-2015 Team Solomid He was apart of 3 Worlds with TSM and 6 NA splits in which I believe they won 3 NA Championships 2013 Spring, 2014 Summer and 2015 Spring. After 3 years on the team he had a problem with getting caught out which will be a repetitive problem in his career.

2016 Immortals After a year of playing second fiddle to TSM the team broke up and everyone went their own ways. Huni joined SKT, Reignover joined TL, Adrian left for TL I think in which I believe Wildturtle was the last to leave before he got contacted by TSM to help them in a International tournament because D-Lift was taking a break.

2017 Team Solomid TSM needed a new adc and Turtle wanted to join/had because IMT were going to be s$it and Turtle had 3 years of exp playing with Bjergsen and knowing the scheme, friendships etc.

2017 FlyQuest TSM were going to put Turtle behind D-Lift so TSM can have a 6 man roster but I personally don't think Wildturtle would get a chance to play. So he joined his former teammates Hai/Lemon and Balls.

In short TSM - IMT/ Teamsolomid wanted a new ADC that didn't get caught out, so they replaced Turtle with D-Lift a player known for getting caught out just as much on CLG back in the past.

IMT-TSM/ Teamsolomid needed a new ADC and Wildturtle fit the piece so he left IMT for TSM because IMT lost their Koreans and were going to be challenger level tier team.

TSM-FQ/ Teamsolomid didn't want Turtle to start over the return of D-Lift, TSM wants to win NA like they have done with Turtle but they want to "try" to win on the International stage like they've done with D-lift 3-3.
