c9 Hai "thats when we knew they fucking lost the game"

Ive been saying it for ages if you keep using the same stratagy of trying to get bjerg fed and santorin hovering around mid even low tier teams will pick up on that, the novelty really wears off after a while.

I like TSM but their strategy needs to change, they can't rely on Bjerg to carry every game and just sit around waiting for late game to come. They need to start being more aggressive and try rather than being afraid of making any mistakes.

People have figured out TSM is basically a one trick pony. I honestly can't see them winning a single game at Worlds right now unless they get a really lucky draw to face a wild card team.

TSM has one good player at the moment. ONE. And, knowing that Bjergsen is good makes strategizing against TSM pretty easy. Especially since its pretty easy to bait Lust/Turtle into bad choices and Santorin is totally useless on tank/utility junglers so unless you make a mistake he isn't gonna be able to punish the other team very well.

Dyrus is still solid, but when he is so often dragged into losing fights bot by Bjergsen's poor shotcalling it means that he can never hope to really get ahead in lane even if he has a winning match up or is better than his lane opponent.

Lustboy is a good support. But he is nowhere near the likes of Xpecial, Aphromoo, BunnyFuFu and Yellowstar. This maybe because he hasn't got the right backup supports nowadays are the shot callers of the team and Lustboy is just terrible in his communication. Sometimes I even think Wildturtle is bad because he has like 0 sync with Lustboy. He used to play much better with Xpecial.

But the main problem TSM is having is the meta shift of mid laners. In the carry-mid meta (LeBlanc, Zed), Bjergsen can solo carry the entire team. Now he can't because current meta is top lane focused and Dyrus just can't play top lane carries.

IMO, TSM should do the switch where Bjergsen plays carry tops and Dyrus plays poke/safe mids (Azir, Orianna). Given the experience of these 2 players, they can easily adapt to the role change.
