I think over the past weeks of LCS, CRS/Dig/TSM all cemented themselves as top 3 while CLG is clearly not in contention anymore. Would you agree, or do you think if they keep the roster as is, they will somehow improve as a team (relative to the top 3)?

You don't have to bench Hotshot right away, but you can start training a replacement. ... which still takes a substantial amount of resources for potentially nothing.
That's kind of how professional development of new players is for most competitive team sports.

Or they keep playing with Hotshot and continue to under perform? They need to take some risks if they want to stay competitive, because their current roster sure as hell isn't doing much.

Yeah, but eSports teams generally don't have these kinds of resources.

I'd say he's contributing the least to the team at the moment. His champion pool just does not fit into the current meta, he needs to play Top laners that can actually apply pressure in lane and pick up some kills. There are comps when playing a tanky champ is warranted, but not every game.

hahah no zhonya's TF ults into 5 and survives

Shen ulti on him + full team taunt + lulu ulti + flash out.

Man those combos Gate-Stand United-Wild Growth. Who needs a Zhonya? Just bait them into crowding around TF for a free multi-targets taunt, ensure TF survives, and then Draven comes in to lay the damage while Udyr gets the stragglers and peels. So well thought out, I like.
