TSM vs C9

TSM is the better team, but that has nothing to do with Dyrus. I think that Balls is a better player overall. He has greater synergy with his junglers (Meteos and Hai), does much better in team-fights, and has better timing on his teleports. That being said, TSM has a much stronger mid laner and a more mechanically sound support. I feel like C9's clearest advantage over TSM is that Sneaky is a stronger ADC than Turtle and his ability has never been questioned like the way TSM has put WildTurtle to the fire this split.

dunno, i´m not a fan of C9 anymore since they brought in a toxic soloq hero to ruin their team...and though hai is carrying their shoutcalling again really well (and sneaky is still the best adc NA) - i really don´t like it that they bring in an ill player with hai to fix their issues for the time being instead of looking for a more long-term solution. So while i´m usually not a big fan of TSM, this time i think they might be the better team - though both are certainly not top tier na-teams atm and with any luck neither will go to worlds.

Cloud 9 is better with the form they have been in lately. Thus the reason they 2-0d them this split.
