FlyQuest is a professional League of Legends eSports team based in the United States that was created on January 6, 2017. The team is owned by Milwaukee Bucks co-owner Wesley Edens and Fortress Investment Group. The team roster began as Cloud9 Challenger, the sister team of the Cloud9 organization. Cloud9 Challenger qualified for the North American League Championship Series in August 2016, alongside the main Cloud9 roster. LCS rules require that an organization cannot own multiple teams competing in the league, so the team was sold to its current owners and re-branded to FlyQuest, with the team roster unchanged. The starting players include three members of the original Cloud9 LCS team, Hai, Balls and LemonNation, along with Moon and LCS veteran Altec.
