Here's this week's 10 thoughts from @MeanMisterKien!

Make sure to tune in Saturday at 12 pm PT to catch FlyQuest and Phoenix1 duke it out for circuit points. And, of course, the NA LCS Spring Final closes Sunday at 12 pm PT as Cloud9 and TSM battle once again.

Always look forward to reading Kien's content. I laughed more in 3 minutes than at 2 half-hour scripted comedy TV shows.

I do disagree with TSM having advantages in the Solo Lanes, Impact and Jensen are more then capable of taking out Hauntzer and Bjerg. While I feel Sneaky and Smoothie are leaps and bounds ahead of Turtle and Bio.

Don't pick me. I'm probably the worst League player in the world.

I always wished there was more to read on this website for Esports, kinda line even on a slow day, NFL, ESPN, and NBA.com have random stories to read.

But your acticles, are honestly always the best, your brother is my favorite mid laner, and a lot of the reason I love C9 (and Fly of course too), but your by far the best writer on this website and maybe my favorite of any sports related site (Granted not everyone thinks Lcs is a sport, but that's besides the point) So please keep up the great work, and if you can find time give us more to read :).

This is probably the most hype matchup in playoffs since TSM vs CLG in Madison Square Garden in Spring 2016. Watching CLG be a power house to take down the true Immortals really set them up as a strong team, but when 6th place TSM take a 3-1 to Cloud 9 and the SWEEP the same Immortals, it became a clash of titans that no one could predict what would happen. Even up to the end of game 5, it was still anyone's game.

I'd be lying if I said TSM will beat Cloud 9 as handily this split as they did last. The skill difference of these two teams is practically non-existent anymore with only slight advantages here and there from pure statistics. My heart is gonna hurt, but I want a 5 game slug fest. I want to see these two monstrosities give it everything they've got. And then some. It won't be anything like Samsung Galaxy vs SK Telecom T1 in the world finals, but i'll be damned if it isn't close.

So, one last time for the spring split of 2017,

Impact and Jensen are hella good but sneaky is a liability to C9 like Darshan is to CLG. Tsm will win because they are the best team in NA. (Bjergsen is a monster) C9 is really goof but def the second best team.

Blame the jungler today, blame the jungler tomorrow, and blame the jungler forever!

Makes me wish I was in the audience. I'd love to play for Flyquest. Sure I'd 100% ensure they lost(me and my gold level skillz), but damn that'd be an experience. ;)

As always, look forward to these 10 thoughts posts. They're pure gold every time.

Hey, just for editing's sake, Kien, Collision is spelled incorrectly in the first panel. Just to let you know.

Final Destination xD Can we use SSB for seeding into the week 1 matches? I would love to watch that!
