Overview

Not much is currently known about the history of the Mexico City Wild Wings. Due to the outwardly Chaotic Good appearance of the Wild Wings's player base and managerial style, their Lawful Evil League status has often been called into question. However, the Wild Wings Legal Team (in fact, an actual Underleagues Blaseball Team) and Gastronomic Conjurer Guild have a near-encyclopedic knowledge of blaseball law as well as a formidable ability to spot precisely the kind of loopholes and fuzzy boundaries that enable the team to operate in this arm of the league.

It is unclear whether all Wild Wings players were put on the team intentionally, and whether they are aware they are playing for the Wild Wings, or even blaseball in general.


Legend of Wingtlan/Tendiechitlan

In the sixth century, a contingent of Aztecs left their homeland of Aztlan. They came from disparate trades, traditions, and classes, but were united by one cause: the search for a promised land with the perfect field for blaseball.

Wingtzilopochtli, god of war and wings, came to the pilgrims' leader in a revelation, telling them they must journey until they found an eagle and a snake eating wings on a cactus paddle. That would be the sign to lay down their blases.

Years later, the wanderers reached the Valley of Mexico, encountering a lake of pure hot sauce. At its center were an eagle and snake perched and coiled on a half-submerged cactus, miraculously splitting a drumstick as foretold. Construction began immediately on the great city of Wingtlan (known to some as Tendiechitlan). Wingtlan (now Mexico City) became home to many wonders over the centuries, but the oldest and greatest is the lake-ringed Bucket Stadium, whose mound sits in the exact spot where the promised cactus used to be.


Recent History

The Roster

The Season 4 elections were the first time that the Wild Wings had a change to the stats of the roster, with Burke Gonzales and Ronan Combs getting alternate forms and José Haley acquiring the Mushroom item. Until then, the Wings were completely unaffected by time. The Wings are still largely immune to the chaos of blaseball however, the Wild Wings are currently the only team to not have a roster change since the beginning of Internet League Blaseball. The Wings have not experienced incineration, a trade, or even a team shuffle. Functionally, the Wings roster is a time capsule to the beginning of blaseball itself. The reason for the immunity of the Wings is unclear, current theories include: secret influence by the Wild Wings Legal Team, protection from weather due to The Bucket, exceedingly strong plot armor, and the extreme spice of the team itself.

Weather

Up until The Weather Event of Season 6, the Wings had not experienced a single weather event. While many weather events had occurred to Wings opponents during games, nothing had ever effected the team itself. The event was a shock to the fans and team alike, as most had become used to the immunity of the Wings. The event was cited by many as proof that The Bucket had started to crumble, as many believe that The Bucket is the only thing standing between the Wings and the chaos of the splort. It is currently believed that whatever entity protecting the Wings from roster change is also the same one protecting them from weather events.
