As a clg fan. They have a coach who has clearly proven himself to be a jerk, even when he played, a jungler who is basically bjergsen's bitch, and a meh adc/support. Their entire strategy revolves around literally ignoring top lane. This is not a team that I want to root for... This is 4 guys being Bjergsen and Regi's bitches, and that's their entire strategy, They aren't eventhe oldest team in NA, and everyone just likes them for bjergsen, who is apparently the MOST MLGPLROSKILLZ KOOL 420 1337 PERSON IN DA WURLDDDD!!!

Srsly....

Sorry, but didn't CLG at one point get coached by monte. At the same time monte was attacking every foreign team that's not Korean. If you really are a CLG fan, don't talk about coaches.

As far as your opinion of their strategy goes. Let's not forget they ended 1 at first half of the split and 2nd place in the second half of the split. So their strategy as bad as it is, produces results.

Let's not forget that CLG last split and the splits before that were on verge of being thrown out of the Lcs. Your opinion is not fact, stats are.

And while you can boost that CLG is doign great, I think anyone with an ounce of wisdom will tell you CLG will perform the same as TSM if they were in the same group as TSM or c9.

God what's with people and worlds man. Two games and people are trying to act very smart. Especially CLG fans; they are IN THE EASIEST GROUP.

I never Said clg was BETTER, I just said that TSM uses a gimmicky strategy that korea will always beat. CLG's strategy is inferior in NA but in korea where they can exploit TSM's strats CLG wins, that's why the won preseason season 1 dreamhack (only na team to come in first at what was then essentially worlds).

TSM is a better team, but uses a gimmicky strategy with players who aren't particularly inspiring and two overarching lords

Also we 3-0ed you guys cus ur team sucks. If NA wants to properly represent themselves at worlds we need to get rid of stupid disfunctional teams like TSM and have teams with good coaching staff and quality players. It hurts to watch TSM and they should be ashamed of how they are representing our country. I feel bad for TL right now knowing that they would be doing so much better if they were there instead. Also, every time your garbage team loses you guys come here and dis every player you can think of. The reality is that CLG is better at every role except maybe mid (althought Pobelter completely rekt Bjerg in the finals) but you guys still have the nerve to be cocky even though all you do is tak a worlds spot every year from a team that actually has the potential to do something good with it.

if TSM is Bronze 4 then they got elo boosted.

It's mostly because they've been at the top of NA for so long, and because apparently people like Dyrus.

BeatinWarDrumzOct 4, 20151 votes

I like dyrus... He both has personality but isnt cocky and arrogant like bjerg

TurquoiseYoshiOct 4, 20151 votes

Yeah, he's the reason why many people who joined after S3 cheered for TSM over C9.

Ok, I'm not TSM fan; not much anyways but common. Bjerg never went in front of entire public or audience and say he is good or better than someone. He is respectful and doesn't show arrogance

Dyrus is the arrogant one. Keep in mind this guy went in from of live audience saying how TSM will beat their group. It's only lately that dyrus stop talking like that

Only arrogant players I have seen are apro and DL. This is why I hate CLG. They can win worlds and I'll still hate them because of their bot lane. They openly laugh at other lanes they beat and shamefully talk s^** about any other team

Dude... doublelift and aphro's whole thing is a JOKE

you actually think that Doublelift means it when he says "Money in the bank pimpin aint easy" or "I'm the greatest, everyone else is trash?"

It's part of a persona that he puts on, and everyone else knows it. Aphro is a cool guy, I guess DL is a bit arrogant but he also it one of the best if not the best adc in the world, and he came outta nowhere (literally he was kicked out of his home). Pobelter is really smart and cheerful/outgoing, while IMO Zion is a lot like Dyrus in that he is quieter, but also seems nice. + hes a vegetarian which i respect.

No I'm not talking about silly comments he makes like they one you said. I'm talking about him openly laughing at other teams in a arrogant way.

When he is winning, he laughs openly at them. When is he is losing, he shuts down, eyes faces the ground, and keeps his mouth shut. Sorry, but I don't see him being professional.

BeatinWarDrumzOct 4, 20151 votes

Because that IS his persona. Aphro goes along with it because they're buds. Also, you can't judge him based on what the screens show his face is like. Also, hes better than bjergsen, and bjergsen talks trash TO OTHER TEAMS not liek doublelift where it's with his team/ as a joke

When did bjerg talk trash

Also, saying its his persona is not an excuse. Like I said, he openly laughs at them.

Take for example the game with FNC and ahq. FNC mid lane was ahead by 100 cs. Nothing bad was said, febiven doesn't talk trash or laughs. What did dl do in same situation, says how he destroyed the enemy laner and was up 100 cs

Yet when he gets beat people still show respect. His arrogance is what I hate

It's Darius. He just doesn't give a dam.

Every team that reaches worlds is popular. TSM just so happens to be a team that has made it five years in a row.

JavelinJoeOct 4, 20151 votes

TSM are consistently among the top 3 teams in NA. Even this last split they finished 2nd overall. I'll give you that they dropped to fifth before play-offs. I think everyone is just waiting for TSM to finally make an impact on the world stage. This Worlds, TSM is considered the underdog team for their group since they are least likely to advance out of group D, and everyone at least enjoys an upset (some more than others).

Earl EulrichOct 4, 20151 votes

mostly due to S1/2...they never have been a mechanical good team, but with Regi they had been really aggressive and deceisive (exactly what they lack as of now)...so rather fun to watch mostly (those bluecard initiations <3).

Azca33Oct 4, 20151 votes

I honestly do not understand this as well. Dyrus is the only American currently playing on the team right now, too.

Dr PoroOct 4, 20151 votes

Exactly. I hate it that they are importing asians to play for them. FNC also has 2 imported koreans in their team. I like Origen way more because they are actually European.
