So, from what we can tell it seems like having a big personality and confidence helps thrive on TSM, so there's that. Also Dlift often said that he believes he "owes" CLG to get it to the top, so makes sense to finally jump the ship after he won a championship. | ||

Which is another hilarious part to me. His contract ended in 2 weeks. It's much less of a PR disaster if you just say you had different visions for CLG's future and decided to amicably part ways. Boom, fucking easy. Instead Hotshot proves again to be a total business disaster by "kicking" him out of CLG. | ||

C L G ![]() btw after reading the CLG announcement, i dont think that DL left them, he most certainly got kicked by someone being very vindictive. | ||

Besides, if they get good players for the other roles (zion/impact, rush, a decent support) there aren't really any NA teams that could beat that. C9 is rip, TIP is rip, TL seems rip, clg is VERY rip. There isn't anyone to compete with TSM for good players, and there won't be anyone who can beat them once lcs starts again :o | ||

Doublelift, best adc in North America, trash teammates, can't win anything, while TSM is successful org with not as good adc. (besides Season 3 WildTurtle, ofc). But not now when CLG is self-destructing after winning championship and TSM just completed biggest heist in Western League of Legends, after losing in MSG. Yeah it's hilarious, though I don't think DL is going to be what TSM needs to be successful. Surely better than Turtle though. Seriously DL, if you wanted to be a traitor anyway should have gone years ago. | ||

Pob joining CLG seemed like a meh move but turned out to be one of the great pickups of the summer split. Roccat "won the preseason trades" ended up middle of the pack. Fnatic were rip, turned out to be god tier. A lot of those non-skill factors have played a significant role in determining the teams success. | ||

The organisation also doesn't have the draw to attract forgiven or freeze unless they are in it for the cash. As for tsm, I see an issue with doublelift and Loco. As far as I know they have some beef which goes back to when Loco was supp for them in 2012. I don't know if they have reconciled and became friends again but it's hard to imagine Loco as an authority figure over Doublelift (yes I know he is not the headcoach anymore) Loco will be doing his TSM duties from Korea at least until Summer split. Didn't say why. | ||

Brand was still going to get damaged after this anyway. so its not a big deal. | ||
