The Snapdragon has bloomed. Team Solo Mid is out for blood, and the NA scene is full of hemophiliacs. The League of Legends sea will run red with the blood of our enemies.
Snapdragon so fearsome... And beautiful
I can already tell many of you are cowering in fear. I can also already tell many of you are saying: "TSM is lazy!" "TSM are just a bunch of frat guys with a reality show and no drive to be the best." "TSM is full of a bunch of baddies who couldn't tell a poke comp if a Nidalee spear flew into their butt." "Crs, CLG, and Dig are gonna poop all over TSM and they wont even be relevant by mid-season."
Let me count the ways so that TSM fanboys and the vast amount of TSM converts I create with this post can laugh at your naiveté.
1) TSM TSM TSM! 2) FK IT. Baylife. 3) They have been on the winner's podium at IEM, MLG, IPL, and even the NA Season 2 Regionals. No other League of Legends team can say they have won an IEM, MLG, IPL, AND Riot event. 4) Over the course of 2012 TSM accumulated $209,200 in tournament winnings. CLG? $129,400. Weak sauce. Dig? $119,900. Paltry. Crs? $47,300. HA! My 3rd world African students scoff at that pocket change.
Where TSM lives, all day, erryday.
"But it's a new season! TSM just isn't the same!"
You are right generic TSM hater/naysayer. It is a new season and TSM isn't the same. They're better. And let me fill you in on why:
Why am I so underrated! The AD Carry: Shan "Chaox" Huang The man is an AD powerhouse. He consistently has one of the highest CS on TSM and usually has the most kills and best KDA ratio. The best part? He is SEVERLY underrated by almost everyone, including players and fans alike. When people think about TSM they think about shutting down Regi and Dyrus. More often than not people forget about Chaox until it's too late and he is racking up triples, quads, and pentas like it's an everyday occurrence. During pre-season 3 he managed to get to the #1 rank on soloq with his main and #2 rank on soloq with his smurf. Chaox is an AD to be feared and his excellent and quiet farming coupled with his positioning and team fighting ability will help propel TSM to the top.
Although he has been kicked off TSM, we will never forget how he helped TSM to their glory and there will always be a special place in our hearts for you Chaox. GLHF and we look forward to seeing you to spread the baylife to China!
#1 Smile NA The AD Carry: Jason "WildTurtle" Tran Wait. WildTurtle? I thought Chaox was the AD Carry for TSM?? Not anymore.
But no worries, WildTurtle is an amazing player with an amazing smile! Since he joined TSM, they finished the LCS Spring season with a 12-2 streak and a securing of the 1st place in the playoffs, a spot in the Summer Season, and the clear favorites of NA. Don't be fooled by his charming demeanor and exuberant smile - WildTurtle is exactly what you think he is: A CAT!!?? Proof! Hell. In his FIRST LCS game of all time, he scored a pentakill. The first one of the NA LCS! He was also nominated as the NA LCS MVP during his first week of play. If that doesn't scream BAYLIFE, I don't know what does.
Now that I figured out the meaning of life... How do we beat CJ-Blaze? The Support: Alex "Xpecial" Chu Behind FDR, there was Eleanor. Behind Chaox and TSM, there is Xpecial. Maybe one of the smartest and best League of Legends players out there today, the quiet and talented Xpecial silently carries TSM. He supports like a baws, making Chaox look like a god, and TheOddOne's bottom ganks look like a bronze player could pull them off. He has been know to lane against Regi and beat him. He destroyed Dyrus in three straight games at Top. Xpecial makes plays without anyone even noticing him. He even plays for TSM AND the opposing team when he wants, just for the LOLZ. + Show Spoiler +
The quiet hamster runs in his wheel constantly and tirelessly with little to no recognition. Xpecial is one of the best supports in NA, if not the world - watch him lift TSM onto his back to the Season 3 Championships.
What if I burn down OTHER teams' houses instead of ours... Huehuehue Top Lane Terror: Marcus "Dyrus" Hill Dyrus is one the most famous members on TSM. A League of Legends veteran, when he isn't trying to burn down the TSM house Dyrus laughs at the competition whether he is trolling with Singed or pioneering champions such as Jax and Vlad. Gaming is in his blood for Christ sakes as his mom was rank 1 in Everquest for Enchanters. Don't let his nonchalant attitude fool you. Dyrus has been practicing hard and striving to improve. No top lane will be able to beat Dyrus and his beloved pillow.
Must prepare for battle... Against the yordles!! The Jungle: Brian "TheOddOne" Wyllie TheOddOne. OddBro. The General. Admiral OddOne. TheGodOne. Known by many names, and all of them feared. TheOddOne was one of the best junglers in Season 1 and he continues to be a top tier jungler to this day. Somewhat like Xspecial, a lot of TSM's victories come at the great game sense and plays of TheOddOne, but he is hardly recognized for it. His KDA is usually not impressive, but that's because he almost always gives his kills to Regi, Chaox, or Dyrus. His Maokai is constantly banned out as he not only popularized it, but is one of the best Mao's in the world. Look for TheOddOne to gank all day erryday as he jungles TSM to victory.
Leeeeeeeeroy Jenkins! Mid Lane: Andy "Reginald" Dinh The man. The myth. The legend. People love to hate him, and hate that they love him. Reginald is one of the most, if not the most, aggressive mid laners in the game today. His Leeeeeeeeeroy Jenkins playstyle has garnered him a lot of fans and a LOT of haterz. It has also given TSM many wins. Whether he is flash walling with Karthus, cleaning up mid lane with Ahri, or calling the shots in team fights - Reginald's leadership, aggressiveness, and shot calling is a staple to the TSM's squad as they faceroll their way to the Season 3 Championship. Oh. And just WAIT until someone lets him play Leblanc. Shit. Will. Get. REAL.
So TSM might lose a few games here and there. Who cares! They only have to be top 4 until Worlds when they crush the competition. Now is the time to experiment one game, and crush the next. CLG beat them? Looks like FOTM comp isn't that great, how about we use our better comp to make Vulcun look like the bottom tier NA team they are and Dig the overrated "Troika" team everyone sees them to be.
Once TSM is done with NA, they will move on to Worlds with a bag full of tricks, standard comps, and victory ensured strategies.
"But but but... TSM just can't stand up to the prowess of international teams."
HA! Just wait. Season 3 is for TSM. TSM is dedicated, persevering, and playing at 110% because This Season Matters.
EG? EZ. GG? GG. CJ-Blaze? We ain't fazed. CJ-Frost? Get lost.
Join me now my TSM fanboy brethren as I chant "TSM TSM TSM!" everytime WildTurtle gets a penta. Join me now my TSM fanboy brethren as I scream "FK IT BAYLIFE!" everytime Reginald flash ults, making Leroy Jenkins cringe. Join me now my TSM fanboy brethren as I raise my pillow up high to the sky everytime Dyrus tower dives top. Join me now my TSM fanboy brethren as I silently praise Xpecial for being the best support in NA. Join me now my TSM fanboy brethren as I salute The General when perfect ganks are executed time and time again.
Join me now my TSM fanboy brethren as we laugh at inferior teams such as: Curse CLG Dignitas Vulcun MRN Complexity GGU Fnatic GG EG SK Giants! Wolves aAa DB CJ-Blaze CJ-Frost Najin Sword MVP KT-Rolster WE iG TPA Saigon Jokers And any other team that has the unfortunate experience of trying to beat TSM.
No one will stop us.
Join me now my TSM fanboy brethren and support TSM like you never have before because SEASON 3 IS OURS FOR THE TAKING!
NA LCS Spring Split Champions! +50K on the year boys.
i approve of this post not because of any appreciation of TSM, but because the list of teams they will beat does not include DnG. seems about right to me
@Yango: It's called, "Why TSM will win the LCS" not "Let's set the bar low and see if we can beat a Korean team."
Delusions of fanboy grandeur >>>>>>> reason.
P.S. I hope this encourages threads of other teams If I can do this on my blackberry with 2G service (albeit with gtrsrs help for posting/formatting pics) in Lesotho, then there should be some other fanboys out there able to do it on their computers with reliable broadband internet!
When I saw this thread I thought "What is this guy doing he's a moron" but by the time I finished reading I could only think "Or maybe he's a GENIUS! JonGalt OP"
On a more serious note maybe some day we'll be big enough to have fan club threads for stuff like this.
TSM has a pretty tough Week 1+2 combo. Only team that has to play six matches in two weeks. If TSM goes 3-0 this week, I'll give this fanclub props. Nothing less than 3-0 though.

Bring it Asmodeus. Here's how it is going down each and every time TSM plays Curse. I am going to be sitting in my round one room stone house and thatched roof having just finished a delicious meal cooked on my three burner propane fueled stove. I will be relaxing in my bed F5ing the live thread and following @LeaguepediaLive on twitter by candlelight. I will probably be listening to a mix of Chiddy Bang, Moufy, Hoodie Allen, and Childish Gambino. Maybe I will be sipping on a beer, Black Label I would assume. Then when TSM crushes Curse I am going to call you out and make you wish you never even knew Curse existed.

Ugh! Sometimes my pronunciation of his name gets the better of my brain. Fixed now though!
And get ready to give props when TSM 3-0s this week
I love TSM. The best team in NA, now and always. They work harder then anyone, and with that hard work they will get the reward they deserve. It might take some time, but give it few weeks and they will destroy all other NA teams.
TSM works hard? When did that happen? While other teams are trying to get better TSM is occupied with posting videos on youtube of people eating sandwiches in an arcadehall while taking swimminglessons.... TSM will never be the best team, they dont have the skill or the dedication.

The worst part about your post is that the whole page has to reload every time I click a spoiler hahaha. So, for the respect that you have for your rival - keep the spoilers to the minimum
And wei2coolman... Hush. 1 game out of 4. We got the other three. 27-1 here we gooooooooooo!
I could care less about the other four (though I certainly have nothing against them), but TheOddOne is what makes TSM for me. Love that guy so much. Great post!

I feel pretty much the same. It seems like Dyrus works hard these days and takes it seriously - that's why he has improved so much. But Regi/Oddone are just so unpredictable you never know whether they're gonna dominate or throw - can't rely on them.
I think you forgot one thing - TSM haven't changed their roster since Dyrus joined the team - (I think it was Xpecial that said this in an interview) Teams should try to keep the same players for as long as they can. When you get a new player you have to adapt to their playstyle and that takes time. Thankfully, I don't see a new TSM member that would join anytime soon... Hopefully it never happenes and all of TSM stays together throughout all of their LoL careers. And they look like really good friends too sooo that's that

TSMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!
So glad that they have been performing so well after that botlane switch. Now that hockey season is over here, all my sports focus goes on following the general and his team. ^^
Only just had the change to watch those last 2 games. Was so happy TSM got the first place, and that was probably the highlight of sporting year 2013 for me.
And imho it really shows, they made the right choice on taking a break after S2, and then coming back. Other teams seemed to slump hard in the last few weeks, and TSM only got stronger. I know this is partly do to the WT change, but i really think small part of it is the fact that many of the teams did not take the time out to empty their minds after S2.
Still a LOT of work to do if they want to challenge the best EU teams, and not even going to say anything about the asians, but it can be done, just have to work hard, and everything is possible.
Their wins were entirely because of wildturtle. To put it simple chaox's play style is fucking terrible. If he had the choice between killing a player and killing minions, he would choose to kill minions. It is fucking baffling. Does he not understand that farm is always relative? Keeping the enemy from getting farm will get you just as ahead as getting farm. Having a farm fest actually allows your opponents to keep up or get ahead and you have no control over it.
It reminds me of a game back when TSM had TRM still. Regi tells TRM to go in when he had half health on teemo, he's screaming "No, fuck that you're trying to bait me." Yes your teammate is trying to bait you into dying so it's more difficult to win the game. What a retard.

That's that makes Weixiao (and a lot of CH ADCs), there is no choice, they kill the champs and still get the CS lol.
I have a lot of time for TOO after this series, particularly the finals. Dude is a very very solid player and pulled out his best play when it counted. Kind of wish I voted for him now.
TOO, me, and my homie Joe, AKA "Dyrus and Oddone's only black friend"
Kkangpae, Dadyrus, TOO, Sinisthis, and Donnaith
Dadyrus, me, and nooona
Oddone came down to Hawaii and played in a fan tourney meet and greet thing at a local PC bang. He's one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet and was super cool to hang out with. Dadyrus was there, too. Both of them say hi to TL, and I let them know about the TSM fanclub thread we got going. He seemed pretty happy about it.
Yeah if it gives you any perspective, I'm 5'7" according to my driver's license
Also, we played a tournament after with random teams (I was with Oddone's girlfriend/Dadyrus/two others) and I got a sweet quadra kill on Oddone and his team with fizz on his stream! I also used a playful/trickster to dodge the damage on a q and land/DFG/WQ before he killed me at a sliver, then lamill (his gf) shatters for the kill. I typed GIRLFRIEND KILL into chat and all the spectators were like OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Also, I may be the only player in teamliquid to play multiple times vs TOO and still be undefeated
Hahaha nah jk but it was mad cool to meet him irl. Seriously one of the nicest and most down to earth guys ever. He had a team with a bunch of scrubs from the random draw and ours was stacked but he took the L with a smile on his face and played a couple showmatches while the tourney went on and signed stuff and took pictures on the way out. Awesome guy.
I've always been a big fan of TSM, but in the last 2-3 seasons they've really fallen off. It's funny when I remember when League of Legends player count contained around 4-5M active players. League was so much better and more enjoyable back in Season 3... Do you guys miss the old League?
I don't miss a lot of the broken things, like old kassadin, league of cleavers, and the ardent censer meta where you just play janna/lulu every game. But I get they have to change things to keep the meta rotating.

I mean that's just growing old. I've been playing league for just shy of a decade now. There were weeks when I was a university student with nothing better to do when I played 50 games a week. Now I'm employed, busy with life and so on(granted with Covid I have way more free time). I think I've got around 50 ranked games this year so far. Probably gonna aim for Plat 2 and call it a good season.
Not playing as much, other things like getting concussed(not my fault), snapping wrist in half(my fault) and so on. Life has it's way of making you worse at the game.
I do miss the simpler days. Now every champ does like 10 different things with 8 passives and a sweet spot nuke and so on.
Am I the only one that finds it weird that someone with 1 post comes in here to bump a 7+ year old thread to tangentially talk about TSM but mostly steers the discussion to League's player count and conveniently puts up a link to some random website that talks about that? Does it seem like to spam/advertising to anyone else?
Nope, I know some of these bot posts can come off as genuine, but if you look closely they lack context, like this bot.
Also, TSM 1st seed in LCS for the first time in years, they didn't even make it to Worlds in 2018/19. How is this falling off, they've never made it out of Groups except in 2014 when 1st seed was directly placed into Quarter finals.

Because when the standard for TSM was "get to the finals every time and then win half of them for 5 years" not going to Worlds, winning LCS finals, or even making LCS finals is a drop off.

You are misremembering things. 2012 was the year when TSM got placed in quarters against Azubu Frost (with the whole Woongfucker screencheating controversy), in 2013 TSM got placed in groups (same group as SKT T1) and it was C9 that got the bye to quarters since they finished Summer Split 1st in their dominant debut split. In 2014, Riot abolished the auto-seeding into quarterfinals and everyone got placed into groups and TSM actually legit got out of groups to faceoff against Samsung White, although some people will never give TSM any credit for that and say that it was solely because SK Gaming wasn't playing at full force since Svenskeren got banned for 3 games due to his racist remarks in Taiwanese soloqueue or whatever reason they get to perpetuate the meme that TSM never does well internationally.
It’s funny how covid has affected things for me. As a nurse, I’m dreading wave 2 as it starts up in my area (US SE). I’m kinda sad about TSM not making worlds, but I also don’t think they fit the meta well. Also find it a bit hilarious. It is really sad that the old skool perennial powerhouses (CLG/TSM) really haven’t been good. It’s worse that the LCS is boring af to watch; there are no good casters and the games are boring. I miss having hope that LCS teams could do well on the international stage
