How can you not love the little guy? They were having fun when things weren't going well. When teams are not doing so hot, coaches use such strategies in practice to get players to loosen up. Considering who TSM was up against and the fact they were knocked out. They felt it necessary to have a fun game where they play heroes they want to play and reverse roles. Big whoop. It's one thing to do it in a scrim where people don't get to watch it's another thing to do it on a main stage of a big competition. This is something you would rarely see and that's why it can be fun for the fans. | ||

They were out. GG.eu was out. They did fanservice to their fans. If they're all okay with giving up $15,000 to have some fun and make a few of their fans happy, then I'm fine with it. It's not my money that they're losing my picking Teemo and role swapping. | ||

I don't think it has anything to do with "maturity". It's just a different attitude they (unfortunately) have, where the entertainment/personality aspect often tends to outweigh the competitive aspect money-wise. I don't think that they "need to grow up", it's rather that the whole attitude needs to change fundamentally. | ||

But since Regi is such a "businessman" and is running his "brand" then that must have been done for a reason eh? Okay, let's say they earned more money with trolling now, than if they had won and then beaten LD after that. It's still not right. It's bad enough a team like GGEU could get here, and now a respected team with huge tradition just says "fuck worlds and professionalism, WE HAVE TEEEMOOO!". You see, other teams "trolly" comps were not straight out stupid, they were imaginative and actually real comps, a bit different from the meta. What TSM did was just a pure circus show. | ||

There is a difference with what OMG did and what TSM did. Not really. Perhaps a slight difference in effort level because they swapped roles, but both teams didn't put their full effort in going into the match and didn't take the outcome of the game seriously whatsoever. | ||
