The Fandom Players who Have Been on the Most Teams

In recent years, the Multiplex community has noticed a trend surrounding a particular faction in Fandom Fights. Something that Tim once referred to as “The Kingsman Shuffle”. This is essentially where two existing players in a faction (not naming any names but, you know, it’s called “The Kingsman Shuffle”) break up existing teams in order to form new teams. Sometimes its because a player wants to step back. Sometimes it’s to find a particular partner that best suits the need of a particular individual. Sometimes it’s just for fun. Nick and Tim love this. However, I did ask myself the question, who is the player with the most teammates and what did those teams look like? Today it will be a deep dive into this. This will not include Frenzy match-ups, however. That would require me into doing more work and, frankly, I’m a busy guy.  

Number 3 (Tie) – Albert Wiradharma 

Albert Wiradharma is not someone who you would associate with often switching teammates. Maybe its because he’s so sneaky and silent you don’t notice him. Or maybe it’s because it wasn’t very often. Albert as a teams player found most of his success along Caleb Boatman on the team Guns and Ships where they played as a team together for three whole seasons. That is honestly a pretty great run. With Boatman, Albert was able to make it to three total title matches, one in each season. They were pretty great. Albert, though, due to him being around for so long actually had two teams prior to Boatman, both of which were short lived. In Season 2, Albert had a teammate in Subrath Sharma to form the Komodo Dragons. Not to diss this team at all but with a record of 1-1, there was not enough game tape on them to talk for very long about. One season later, one Nick Carley was gifted an automatic contender match with any player if his choosing to be his teammate. Nick, seeing that such a great player was available, obviously chose Albert to form Big Guns. Although they lost their contender match to the soon to be champions Knights of Ren, Albert on Big Guns had a great run. They beat the future legends and champions Wookiee Mistake in their debut match and went on a tournament run beating Schizo in the semi-finals. Unfortunately, extenuating circumstances meant that they could not play in the finals. That’s okay though because that led to the aforementioned Guns and Ships. After Guns and Ships broke up, Albert went to find his fourth partner in his career, Jack Pinchuk, which speaking of… 

Number 3 (Tie) – Jack Pinchuk 

That’s right. Both members of Some Assembly Required are tied for the third amount of teammates they’ve had. A total of four. What are the odds. Some Assembly Required is a concoction of two very good Fandom Fights players. In a year with a great rookie class of teams, maybe they did not get to shine as brightly as some, but they are definitely a team to fear in the future. But before Jack was teaming up with Albert, he had three other teammates. His first one was a very shortly lived stint with Douglas Cassel who together made the Irish Bros. This lasted one match due to Jack’s internet somehow being worse than in the Frenzy. Seriously. It was rough. The season after, Jack teamed up with Matthew Chen and became Anyone Can Cook. The two of them as a team were pretty good. They took Wookiee Mistake into sudden death, they played in a contender match and had each other’s backs in terms of what their strengths were. But Jack had a very impressive comeback season in Fandom and Matthew had a very impressive comeback season in Melee. With their priorities differing, they decided to part ways. This led Jack to team up with his last partner before Albert, Alex. Alex and Jack formed Second Breakfast Club because they had a lot of success during the Fandom Teams Frenzy when they won together. Their season didn’t go like they wanted but its not like they played poorly either. I would have liked to see how they would’ve done in one or two more matches. Alas they both found other teammates and they seem to be pretty happy where they are.  

Number 2 – Jim Green 

Jim Green is one of the few players in Fandom who is active from the first season of Fandom. You could probably count on one hand how many of those players are still left. His first team started way back in the day of Season 1. The team, Kings of Winter. The teammate, Kaleb Koho. The two of them I think teamed up due to Koho’s knowledge of some of the categories and the game that he created combined with the fact that Jim knew Wizarding World like the back fo his hand, a category that Koho absolutely hated. They played well. Sure, there were a couple stumbles, but what team hasn’t had those? They ended up playing for a total of two seasons and played in two title matches together wherever they lost to the Arkham Knights. Jim later teamed with Lucas Schildbach on a team whose name I don’t feel comfortable going on record having said or written on the internet but sufficed to say, it was derogatory toward Lucas. They played a bunch of tough teams, like Ascendant in their debut, but ultimately ended their run as a team that season at 1-2. Jim took a break soon after and fought something much more difficult than a question about who played a picture. Cancer. And not only did he beat it, but he also KO’ed it. Once he accomplished that great feat, he formed Gondor Primulon with Brooklyn Vail. They played together until the season after they debuted, Brooklyn decided to step back so the Video Store paired him up with up and comer Jacob Cameron on Fandom Drift. Jim, being a very chill guy, is all about having fun so on his final team he teamed up with one of the most relaxed players in the community Brandon Cohen. The two of them seem to be having a ton of fun and not studying. I know that sounds like I’m dissing them but honestly, they remind me that the most important part of this game is to have fun and not go overboard. For those of you keep track at home, that makes 5 teammates for Jim Green. Which brings me to number 1. Drum roll please. 

Number 1 – Adelaide Spence 

Adelaide Spence has played on a total of six different teams. To put that into perspective, Fandom Fights has been around for only 7 years and Spence has only played for six of them. Adelaide Spence has had a new teammate for every season played. Spence first teamed with Ruben Colon. Honestly, he’s not worth talking about on this article. Besides they were 0-1 and then broke up so frankly not that much to talk about. But then came along a powerhouse team called Technically Not Wrong. Okay. Maybe they weren’t a powerhouse but Barr and Spence together weirdly worked as a goofy team that knew a lot more than they should have. They couldn’t beat Bounty Hunters Anonymous and also ended up 0-1 but honestly, they weren’t a terrible team. Spence later teamed up with the recently retire Mike Shea (we miss you, man). The two of them had a solid team name and a good repertoire. Isn't It Fironic's losses come from bad luck in my opinion as they narrowly lost to great teams like Lights Cameron Action, Fringe Benefits and License to Chill 2.0. After joining the Kingsmen, Spence paired up with Alex Martinez, a fellow new addition to the Kingsmen, and really did some damage as The Demigod Complex. The only teams they lost to were Duel of the Fates and Dum-E’s some of the best Fandom Teams of all time. Much like Second Breakfast Club, I would have liked to see where The Demigod Complex could go especially as they played for a title their rookie season but c’est la vie. Upon hearing of the arrival of Igor Kasic though, Spence believed that they would be a great team. As a mentor who doesn’t take the game all that seriously but is very knowledgeable and the rookie who showed much potential but was knew to the game, the dynamic worked. The two of them played incredibly their rookie season but when you come across Wookiee Mistake in a tournament, you just can’t do anything about it. The two broke up in the same way at the end of the season, a seemingly recurring trend. However, when Joe Farrelly asks you to team up with him, you can’t say no, and Spence gave a blessing to Igor to go forth and wreck shop. So, Spence picked up a player who had not had the best of seasons but would guide him to greatness. Dean Manness became the last of Spence’s teammates with The Bourne Ideantity and they have had a great career so far. They started with a knock out, lost in a well-played tournament match against Galac-Deez Nuts, beat Molokai Cargo and beat a great player in Ryan Payne in the WOAT tournament. It is unknown at the point that I write this what their fate in the rest of the tournament is but if I were a betting man (which I guess I am but only when it comes to points in round 3), I’d guess Spence will keep this partner for the next season thus finally breaking tradition.
