Rocket League
FlyQuest made its first foray into Rocket League in September 2017, acquiring the eQuinox roster.[13] This roster played in RLCS Season 4, finishing sixth in the regular season and missing out on a LAN spot after a 4–0 loss to Ghost Gaming in the regional playoffs. In the offseason between Seasons 4 and 5, FlyQuest dropped their first roster and picked up the Ambition Esports roster.[14] This team finished first in RLRS league play for Season 5, earning them a spot in the promotional playoffs. They went on to defeat Out of Style and Counter Logic Gaming in the playoffs, earning them a spot in the RLCS for Season 6. FlyQuest finished fifth in league play, but again missed out on a LAN spot after losing to NRG in the regional playoffs. In December 2018, FlyQuest announced that they would be dropping their Rocket League roster, with AyyJayy and Wonder being transferred to Rogue and Pluto staying with the organization as a content creator.[15]
