Rekkles to NA?

Yes, FNC managed to make it to worlds... sort of, but they are struggling against bottom tier teams and it has nothing to do with Rekkles. It makes me wonder why he doesn't make the move to an NA team where he might have a better chance to be competitive.

Teams like FOX, P1, NV, TL, and even FLY would benefit from adding Rekkles to their roster. There is also the possibility of his skill level enticing a top team like DIG or CLG to make the change, or TSM could find their ADC sub they have so desperately wanted... if Rekkles is willing to play off the bench to win a championship.

IF Rekkles made the move to NA, which team would he go to and why?

My guess would be CLG. He's an upgrade from Stixxay, he would be able to start and compete for a championship, and CLG is ready to win now.

Believe it or not there were rumors of him joining TSM last offseason, as FNC not only heavily pursued rallez for a starting job (him ending up joining their academy team) but they were apparently looking to do a full rebuild of sorts and didn't think he'd want to be a part of it.

To answer the question, I honestly don't want him in NA. Much like Brady on the pats, and romo on the cowboys, there are certain players who are a part of a team for so long that they become more of an embodiment of it than the actual graphic they have for it. While he could potentially join an NA team and do better than he would in EU (TSM being the only real "fit" due to import slot issues), to the majority of the playerbase he'd still be FNC rekkles and would look entirely out of place in a different team's jersey. Ultimately, unless a team is paying him a literal million dollars per year to play for them I entirely expect him to stay/retire with fnatic, as he's not only their most talented player but is also the one to which they can build their franchise around.

Fnatic, G2, Splyce, and Misfits all applied for NA.

He won't join TSM Rekkles knows too well what happened to his support when he joined TSM. Dude got kicked out because he actually knew what he was doing

If anything, if Rekkles does join a team It will have to be IMT, C9, or CLG or with Froggen
