What is TSM's record vs Koreans again? like, 0-16 or something?


Yes but the image it gives is a bit tainted because any NA team that had to play their caliber of opponents would have sufferend the same. For example CLG had a "better" record because they were able to play weak teams in OGN groups while TSM got the strong teams that travelled internationally.


Uh, Blaze wasn't even that strong of a Korean team when they came and dumpstered TSM for the first time. I mean, they had Reapeared rofl.

Reapered was good back then. He single handedly destroyed IEM and won the tournament when he was with SKT.

and you posting it for the 10th time this weekend doesn't make that fact any more valid either.


I hate reddit threads that saying c9/tsm/fnatic/gambit can beat top 8 korean teams LOL stop being delusional, maybe those 4 teams start to believe it thats why they doesnt even tryhard in lcs.

TSM could do pretty good in OGN imo, not top 4 or anything, but they'd hold their own really well.


You mean NLB?
4th place EU team Fnatic > 2nd place NA team C9
8th place KR team KTb > 4th place EU team Fnatic > 2nd place NA team C9

given C9 and TSM are only one game apart and C9 winning head to head,l its safe to say the skill level of C9 is equivalent to TSM

The only team TSM can beat by the looks of it is MIDAS or maybe Prime Optimus.
If you count getting relegated every season as 'doing well in OGN', sure, TSM will '' do well''

Fnatic isn't better than C9, though.


How not? Results are everything. Head to head record shows, yes Fnatic is better than C9. Any other conclusion is pure sophistry. Its like saying Team A consistently loses to Team B, yet Team A is better than Team B.

Not as strong/dominating, but it's the strongest region with the most depth.

They can't play the current riot-approved meta since the version of LoL they play is several months of patches behind. This IEM also involved a pair of teams that aren't top4 in China.
When in doubt, just believe in yourself and press buttons

TSM only 1 game ahead of c9, has a lot to do with Regi having to sub in for Bjerg.

Size doesn't matter, there are countless of talent hotpits through history. How was Florence able to produce so many world class artists during the renaissance? How did all the good classical music in the 18th century come from Vienna? Why can one little tennis school in Russia produce countless of top players? etc. etc.

also they're crippled by them being behind in patches which is very sad

Insec seems like a better late game jungler than Kakao. But honestly I find it hard to believe KT B could outrotate other korean teams and set up so much map pressure for a jungle khazix in the late game.

I love how EU teams have been getting their late game abused when everyone tells them their long games are due to being incompetent at closing out games.

He wasn't very well respected in Korea as a top player at all lol.

I thought that had a lot to do with him being BM or something? not necessarily skill issue,

Wait, how many games did regi supposedly lose them?
