A kind of "out there" question

One thing I have been wondering recently is why Destiny does not have a team. I mean sure in the past he was known for being a little rowdy, but he has all but remedied that, and he is steadily improving. He is very inconsistent, but overall is a good player, and probably the best player not named Tree to not have a team or at least a clan. Just a question, I could easily be missing something here.

He doesn't have a team because he doesn't need one, he makes over 60k a year from just streaming and lessons.
I think he said that what he wants in a team is one where the players are better than him, so he can learn from them, and where they don't force him into a contract where he is required to do a ton of promotional stuff or change his personality.

Teams have obligations in terms of tournaments you have to go to and minimum standards of behaviour. Why spend all month practicing for a LAN to go and have a chance at a 10k prize pool when you could just stream that month and make a few thousand guaranteed?

well I know he left root because iirc he didn't like the way it was going in terms of major sponsors and being a big "corporate" team and there seem to be no teams that really fit for him right now (I think idk exactly but i think thats what he said)

Errr....
Complexity acquired ROOT, but (to make things short), things didnt work out between Destiny and coL, so they parted ways
