Having two people not speak the language is much harder than just one, for that reason alone I think Keith should have been given more time. Again nothing against Piglet, he seems to be fitting in with the team great now, but they should have held on to Keith. Communication is overrated in League of Legends. Even more than friendship.

Pretty much, just official TSM member now. Like Altec was at some point during his stint in C9T. | ||

Holy shit, such communication. 10/12 of LPL teams work like that, TIP is working like that, TDK is working like that and so on. But everyone is still "hurr, proper communication is so hard to develop". Legit bigger bullshit than "Team can't be successful without XX analysts, bunch of coaches and full Korean infrastructure". | ||

Bjergsen is not best mid in the west. Been confirmed. He isn't even best in NA anymore. He can only play one style and he doesn't impact the game anymore. He needs to be replaced. | ||

I actually think weirdly enough teams with more common language have more communication problems. Communication problems are not as simple as the ability to share information. | ||

Bjergsen was the best western mid pre-IEM, he was ahead of everyone in west. He has fallen at MSI though. Febiven is clearly ahead of every westtern mid laner atm. | ||

Febiven also benefits from having the best jungler and top laner in the west on his team. Put Bjerg on Fnatic and I guarantee he'd play at a similar level. | ||

Am I wrong? Maybe he's been average, but i don't see how you can argue that he's been above average at all. | ||

I'd agree if you said this two months ago but now, nope. It's not about team, Bjergsen underperforming since MSI. Of couse he is still good but not as good as he used to be. | ||

I don't know how about you look at his stats, he's been a top 3 ADC if not higher for like his entire time on TSM. Only recently, as in this split has he truly fallen off. | ||
