NA 2019 Spring Split Finals for MSI

Did you have any type of enthusiasm or expectations for NA in the past?

Yes, even with your sarcasm which panders to the negativity the community spews out in general when it comes to NA anything. Hell there were 2 threads on this board last week basically about "C9 Lost. No faith in NA anymore." Well I'm a firm believer that anything can happen at a given period. No team's invincible and no team's out of a running if the competition around it has its own share of weaknesses. Of course I have to nod emerging regions to prove their place more. Why NA fandom seems to be synonymous to hating everything about it depending on the team or teams is getting quite old. So I choose to think optimistic to the present rather than judge off of irrelevant past.

TSM has changed their roster countless times in the past and they still would get destroyed on every International event.

Except Katowice. But everyone is controversial about that. Regardless let's go ahead and play the game of how 2019 TSM = 2013/4/5/6/7/8 TSM and be that way.

Team Liquid has Doublelift and let's be honest that guy is an instant loss. Jensen gets first blooded against every International team and Impact has preformed like S$it the last few years.

You call Doublelift an instant loss when it's the teams building and making the exploit through playing around him. Same can very much be said about Uzi and his several recent years of roster iterations if you want to dig a bunch of international past. I already said it above, Liquid has their 2018 record that they have to redeem. But I'm thinking positively rather than giving up.

TSM are a good defensive team as of late(especially on the tower side of things compared to their first half of the split) and they can make plays with BB but at this point I have little faith in them.

Your original post makes me believe your faith is fueled by the past. Lemme tell you something. I don't have any team right now written out to just squash other teams come MSI. Closest to that margin would be FunPlus Phoenix followed by SK Telecom if either team even gets there. Why? One's untested and the other's exploitable somewhere. Or are we just going to spin the shaky start SKT had and not TSM's?

End point: would you even be making this post if C9 actually closed out the semifinals?
