That just made me wonder, would TSM bench TheOddOne if they had a better player ready to field in his stead? (is "in his stead" even a legitimate term? lol)
I mean there's no doubt that his marketing value is huge. I'd say marketing/followship wise TOO and Dyrus are the core of TSM and if they were to get rid of OddOne it would be such an enormous hit for the fans. Like, huuuuge. It wouldn't surprise me if they were very, very hesistant to bench him as long as he plays at least solidly (by NA standards).
The reason they are picking up Challenger subs at every position is so they can bench people that aren't performing.

I hope the bench for the mid lane sub is nice and comfy then

I think Riot needs to be careful about their decision. Lifting the ban on someone guilty of ddos could send a wrong message.
Edit: Reading more about it on reddit and I can't tell if he actually ddossed or not

Without knowing the exact details I would say that 9 times out of 10 keep the ban. Esp if its a temp ban I would keep it. Lifting bans sends the wrong message.

"wasted talent" is not an excuse to lift a permaban imo.

There's almost no way he is going to be unbanned.

Whitezz and tabe retire, uzi to mid and LMQ's bot lane joins.
I assume that unfortunately that means lucky is staying.

I'm really hoping that they keep the ban.
IRL, I'm all against life prison/capital punishment... But imo, perma ban in a game =/= capital punishment. He can still improve as a human (IRL or in another game), whereas capital punishment = death.
I don't care about talent. It's not like there aren't better players out there. He's not unique or anything

Because the proscene directly relates to the tournaments we track, I assume.
