This is pretty funny actually.

I would give it 50/50 at best for TSM. Probably less.

I'm picking a TSM vs CLG #SaltWars #Dumpsterpalooza slugfest for the finals at MSG, and a repeat of spring split with TiP vs TL for 3rd place. I don't think that TSM has shown all their cards yet.

I think Dyrus playing a carry is all TSM really has up their sleeve. In any case, a tilting Gravity team is far easier to beat than a TL team on a winning streak against top teams.

Don't forget that the Forever Fourth curse can rear its ugly head back towards TL. Neither team is invincible, but given TSM's tendency to bring out that extra gear in playoffs, and if it is indeed Dyrus' swan song this year, I think that they're even more dangerous of the two teams.

The 4th place curse was broken last split. TSM may be more dangerous, but less consistent.

Curses can always be reapplied. It's a possibility that TSM might have been sandbagging this entire time, and working on drawing people into an underestimating of them. Why might they do this? Because the moment you catch someone off guard, you now rent space in their head, and can't be evicted easily. A lot of armchair quarterbacks gave Dyrus crap, said that he was washed up, "over the hill," or that he was dead weight. He might be saving his best for his last ride, and we might not have even seen it yet. Same with Wildturtle, about how inconsistent he is, how he flashes forward into a large scrapping, or rocket jumps away from a sure pile of kills waiting for him, and how people want him benched. Or the whole team.
