Only one series a week from the second day of games will be covered.  | ||

Redbull dropping sponsorships with TSM and C9 to make their own EU CS team. This conflict of interest thing is so hilarious considering the EU CS team will never see play vs TSM or C9 until at least mid-2018. Currently unknown if Redbull will also drop player sponsorships with Bjerg. | ||

Purely talking from my own experience, I'm having a hard time remembering sponsors of teams. I couldn't name a sponsor of even TL, the team with a forum I browse, or TSM, the most well known team. That said, for Korean teams it's easy to remember, as they all have their sponsors in the names. I think the worth of having a name as a sponsor is much more than being the sponsor of a big team. If Red Bull data agrees, this step in principle seems logical. That said, taking a EU CS team seems weird. EU doesn't have the franchising next season, right? So unless they want to fool around in EU CS while preparing for an entrance in NA LCS next season, it doesn't really make sense to me. | ||

Even if they aren't actually a top 3 team having a garunteed split (minimum)with those 3 teams would make top 3 standings very likely | ||

I feel like this team seldom actually looks good in their wins, but instead, teams have just been playing terribly against them. Once the better teams get their shit together, I can't imagine IMT actually having a chance of finishing top 3 this split. maybe IMT goes for their third first round playoffs knockout | ||

It's not like they been successful in Overwatch or CSGO either. It's pretty much Smash and Dota squad that really pulling weight last few years, although hear there's some decent fighting game players on roster too. CSGO every now and then does deep tournament run but never really amounts to much. | ||

we're going to need another playable midlaner anyways after franchising and this season is donezo anyways. might as well experiment with a mid laner who was LCK level also even if he is inconsistent he is one of the pickups that actually seem to fit with what TL needs. he's a midlaner who puts immense pressure both in lane and teamfights with (in the past) a high dmg share and kill participation. this is very different from most of the midlaners we've had (goldenglue, fenix, etc.) and more similar to midlet which fit the team stylistically but was an obvious downgrade in skill. it's basically a good midlet lol. so yeah we have 2 piglets live and die by the pig i guess | ||
