btw you sound like korean fanboy son e z


nah im neutral, just funny to see how people vote TSM in such high numbers even though koreans have been owning all weekend


I doubt you're neutral, if anything you're anti TSM so you go for the other team

Give props where props are due, TSM clearly can compete with this korean team if you actually watch the fights (especially in the first series), especially considering the team studied TSM while TSM had no idea about them coming into it

Overall I'm having fun watching this series, both teams are really good. I just like being realistic tho so w/e you can lie to yourself


TSM said they watched tons of replays including all of the OGN matches...


watching replays =/= actual playing

Please explain to me what type of "meta" moves these koreans pulled off this tournament that is different from NA? All their picks are super standard and have been around for the longest time. Look at their lineup before the game crashed and how the played. They just played the same but better.

The super fast 2v1 push tower down meta, with extremely fast grouping~, all while being able to farm. The picks have been somewhat standard, but style of play is pretty different. You can also totally see the teamfights being WAY more executed than any other team. They also seem to have a counter-gank heavy style, any time a TSM gank comes up, (or any gank that comes up), Azubu has been able to respond very quickly, and always trade evenly, or better. This game 2 has been a slight issue for Azubu, because global's from TSM are making it hard for azubu to react in time.

People keep talking about the korean meta but its nothing special, they just push lanes aggressively. They are winning because they are doing better in the laning phase and in team fights not because of "korean meta".

Do you see TSM's team? Their entire fucking team is about catching people, it's their purpose. You can't just say "oh they got caught that doesn't count" They got caught because it's part of TSM's plan.

they got caught in nearly every game vs tsm several times + getting some really messy/stupid fights (for example g2 in the first series that tf did a reginald move and teleported into suicide into the enemy base)


So you're saying they just played badly. Doesn't stop the fact that TSM has a team meant to catch people. Azubu is just playing better even with their mistakes, cause TSM is making even more.

They are there for money and to win, therefore they want a rematch ofc.


Thats my entire point. With all the raging TSM fanboism going on in the western world it won't even have image repercussions. Although I for one won't be as big a fan as I am currently should they demand rematch. Azubu was basically running up to their Nexus to finish with TSMs three damage sources dead with about a minute on the timer and no stalling power save Janna Q.
Do not regret. Always forward, never back.

His argument was TSM had no idea about them while Blaze were some sort of TSM experts.


Most, if not all top asians played on american servers.
are they lost forever?

they're way better individually than TSM in those games and their game plan seem to be superior, they just like being caught, the only thing which gave TSM a chance in this game.

Exactly. The only reason TSM got back into the game was they managed to catch a few Blaze members all alone, which were the only mistakes I've seen Blaze make this whole tourney. Granted, though, I haven't watched every match.
But then Regi and Chaox fuck up the last 2 teamfights and Dyrus' back breaks.


Do you see TSM's team? Their entire fucking team is about catching people, it's their purpose. You can't just say "oh they got caught that doesn't count" They got caught because it's part of TSM's plan.

Where did I say or imply "oh they got caught that doesn't count"? I'm giving credit to TSM, they caught a few Azubu players, made a few good plays off it, but then lost their momentum.

5:0

clearly they can compete


did you watch the games or just the scoreline then make a post?


Don't bother responding hes 100% anti-TSM. Everything he sees is against TSM and whoever they are playing are better.


on the contrary, i love TSM, what i am anti is TSM fanboys voting 75% that TSM will win even though they lose 4 games in a row to the koreans, now 5, soon to be 6

Can't blame them for wanting something thats best for them. Either way it shouldn't even be in their hands to decide. Should be 100% admins like a poster before me said, should be rules set for this.

That's what I posted like 4 pages back, Essentially TSM got fucking lazy. OGN posts all the vods of the matches, And TSM has a b-team that is there for practice. BUT GUESS WHAT. TOO BUSY SOLO QUEUING STREAM.
