Solo found himself in the unfortunate position of going teamless in the 2019 off-season after a rough ending to his time on Echo Fox. But halfway through the 2020 Spring Split, FlyQuest picked him up as an assistant coach, a new role for the top laner. However, he soon transitioned into a substitute for V1per, and is now helping the team on the Rift as they fight their way through playoffs. Watch our video interview here:
