He makes enough money he doesn't need to play anymore. If I was in his shoes, I'd retire from playing and just make the money while enjoying the game and your team. I think they might pick up salce, not sure who else they would pick up.

Finally.

He was just a drag on the team's potential-he was an exceptional player, yes, but his mechanical ability in comparison to people like jij, Froggen, or Jacky was subpar.

There is no TSM without reginald. He's the core foundation of the team.

Regi definitely made this up with the leadership he brought to the table for TSM. He carried them through so many tournaments. Despite not having the best mechanics, he still found ways to dominate. Honestly I'm not sure if this is the best news for TSM, competitively

one of two things will happen here

1) tsm will fall apart without their baylife father in the driver's seat
2) they will poach a top mid from another team (scarra, jiji, chauster, something) and fail anyway, destroying the other AP's old team in the process

at worst(best?) you've got the demise of one NA team, at best(worst?), two of them will fall apart. NA scene WIDE OPEN especially with region-lock next season.

I actually don't agree, I think they will pick up Salce, or some other young, strong and hungry player, and become really strong. Maybe even swapping roles around and picking up Aphromoo (if they can stand him..).

This is wrong, he is definitely stronger than JiJi and he is pretty strong player. Hell look at the games vs Frost, he played pretty well.

Wouldn't be surprised if they picked up Nyjacky or Salce.

Kinda sad because he played arguably the best for TSM in the finals, but ultimately the correct choice to handle the business side of TSM, establish them, etc.

Wouldn't be surprised if they move Xpecial mid and pick up a new support (Nhat seems a likely choice)

if they take salce, they're fucked
if they take aphromoo, mme or w/e team he's on is fucked (not to mention, how many failed teams has aphro played for? not hating, just stating)

as much as i hate him, regi was the glue that held solomid together. he leaves, they burn, it's that simple

hopefully xpecial can jump onto a different team and still find success

With Reginald retiring, my sources are saying that Xpecial will move to mid and tryout supports. #LeagueofLegends

No really what, why would they be fucked with Salce? - Aphromoo I agree, he seems unhealthy to have on a team. I don't agree with your last comment at all, Dyrus+Oddone have great synergy with each other, and the team in general seems really well together. It's not like Reginald is quitting the team, he'll just not PLAY.

I'd be really pumped if they somehow picked up Chauster (I doubt he'd leave CLG though).

Also, without Regi I feel like TSM will be a lot less annoying.

There are significantly better free agent mids than supports.

if you say Nhat you have no appreciation for solid support play.

Noo don't break up the awesome of their bot lane! Though Xpecial is really talented and would likely exceed at mid. Would be awesome. Makes sense for Regi, awesome business man and he will still be heavily involved with the team. TSM forever and always!

My money's on Nhat as the new support.

I think Xpecial mid and picking up new support would be a dumb move. Much easier to replace one role than to replace two.
