I wasn't going to respond because you specifically stated from people outside of NA, but since nobody else has listened to that much I suppose it wouldn't hurt for me to throw in my two cents.

I've been a TSM fan since I started watching professional play. I remember staying up to ungodly hours watching TSM's run out of group stage in season 4 when Amazing was still the jungler. Their player's streams were the most accessible for me to watch so I felt like I got to know the players really well by watching their streams. Granted that era of TSM is long gone and the only one remaining on the roster from that time is Bjergsen, but I spent a lot of late nights watching him stream, a lot of morning watching Dyrus and Santorin stream a long while back. I guess I just grew attached because I felt like I knew the players where other teams didn't seem to place the same value on that form of fan growth.

It's definitely an era of NA professional play that's long gone. I don't see many active professional players streaming during the season like I used to, but a large part of me just sticks with the organization out of that nostalgia from when that was the case.

I'd go C9 because since I started following the LCS in S4 they always had good performance in the international scene while the OH SO PRAISED TSM always fought like clowns.

Also I grew to dislike the majority of the TSM fan base.

Well C9 just got reversed sweep by TSM. They tasted their own medecine.

I'm a dedicated fan of neither team. I went for TSM for wanting to see the success of some of their players; nothing more.

I care more about the TL vs FLY match tomorrow! Underdog stories yo!
