Just about had it with this wishy-washy TSM

Back when it was Dyrus, Bjerg, Turtle, you know what TSM was good at? Team fights around neutral objectives.

Back when it was Bjerg + Amazing, or Bjerg + Santorin, or Bjerg + Sven, you know what TSM was good at? Playing around mid lane and creating pressure through superior mid lane prowess + jungle pressure.

Back when Hauntzer was top, you know what TSM was good at? Playing around failed dives and failed pressure top, exerting cross map pressure with Doublelift. They'd literally pull teams apart across the map, and just steamroll over them with better rotations and better vision control.

Now what is TSM good at?

Do we even know? Do we even care?

Oh I know what they're good at -- Roster changes. They're good at roster changes.

Roster changes, and failing SPECTACULARLY in big game scenarios. That's what TSM is good at now.

TSM was never really good. Reginald just always had so much sway and pull. Now that many of the other owners are just like him because of franchising, he’s having difficulty convincing RIOT to give him championships because there is so much more money in the league now. They can’t or ever could win on a skill alone. Just look at their world’s performances.

Gotta have top dollar to get that NA trophy. Which team has the most dollars? Witch team has been winning all of these ships? Hmmm...

Bjerg plays like he's in solo-q. They constantly lost at worlds because outside of NA there are strong TEAMS. In the 2017 iteration they literally got a 10k gold lead on SKT and then LOST because they were too tentative and couldn't team fight. Am I the only one that noticed that their ONE good fight in CG v TSM was when Bjerg got caught and focused down and then everyone else on TSM could blow up CG without worrying about him?
