Happy TSM took a game, figured they'd get 3-0'd and I wake up to a 3-1 is fine. Hopefully C9 can be a bit more competitive tomorrow. Watching how poorly Hai played in group stages overall, and how many tricks C9 needed to pull out to beat NJWS, I worry that SSB-C9 will be as dominant as SSW-TSM. Blue will ban Rumble in every game, and I don't know what C9 could pull out that would give them the win they needed. If C9 can't win G2 on Blue Side, then I worry they'll get 3-0'd. SSB doesn't seem like they will underestimate C9.
Why do you need to worry, it's not like C9 are coming into series with more than 5% chance to win it anyway. Hope Meteos gets exposed by Spirit though, just to make him stop being complacent.

Sure its a wee bit early, not overly so, for EU but it matches up better for NA and Asia

Amazing just threw it so hard. White feel hook line and sinker for that backdoor and Amazing just shat the bed in terrible fashion by going in like 20 yards ahead of his team. Just shocking!!!!! Yes, if Amazing had waited 5 seconds, TSM would have taken the inhib, both nexus towers and the nexus before SSW even noticed what was going on! and all that without a single minion, you know the game so well, my friend.  There was nothing TSM could´ve done in that game, to win, after they didn´t get a massive lead early on.
They could have taken mid and top inhibitors for free. That would have given TSM a realistic window to win the game. They were only behind by 6k gold at that point (50k+ game at that point). It was an incredible blunder by white that they were not punished for. No champs on the map should have been a dead give away that something was up, but luckily for them, Amazing showed way too early. If it wasn't for that it would have been a real game at that point. I may have exaggerated saying TSM had it won, but nonetheless, it was a legitimate opportunity to turn the game in their favor, when there looked to be no way back before that.

They could also have had mid inhib + nashor, but they chose to recall instead after forcing White to defend their base, earlier. TSM mixed genius moments with big blunders that game.

TSM went 1-3. I'm sort of impressed.

Thoorin's twitter is the best.He is THE troll who just does it for the lulz.

It's not early enough to just stay up but it's too early to wake up for. Liked how the group stage times were :<. Oh well I'll just check results for bracket play.
Eh, that's been all the games this far. I'm excited, 10 pm start tube for me, can watch the true white hope and still be in bed before i usually would.

Blue-C9 actually have almost perfect time, if they can draw out series at least for 3 hours, it will be right before Code S finals, so 3-1 might be best result.

I feel that this is just the beginning for NA teams. I can't wait to see how C9 preforms today and how NA teams will preform next year. TSM TSM TSM

Holy fuck I love Amazing, haha. This is too good.

Pretty good for TSM to take a game off of SSW, gives NA at least a little hope, but boy the SSW from the first 2 games looked scaaary. Their only weakness is overconfidence and it's kind of shocking to me that they still haven't fixed that issue yet lol.

TSM salt is probably the most satisfying kind of salt there is and Thooorin relishes it more than almost anyone else I see in the community.
Also TSM won a game. tsmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, usa usa usa usa usa usa

I am okay with that best of 5 today. TSM took one win thats already improvement. All three games long I had the feeling that dyrus is either useless or just not good enough anymore. Times have changed. I don't think reginald will keep him for long. Thankfully its not my task to get another toplaner.

What does he have to prove? that TSM sucks in comparison to Korea? I think TSM does that just fine.

Nah.If you watch summoning insight I am sure you have seen his shit-eating grin every time he brings up a bad player or some drama.Pretty obvious he is a troll at heart.

I get why he's super pissed at Reginald and Loco for attacking Monte and causing him to apologize/be scrutinized on SI for the ape comments. However, his comments today on Twitter, while intended for snarky fans, Reginald, and Loco, were actually aimed AT THE PLAYERS. I don't really get why he has to spend hour after hour dismantling the team just to get his rocks off at people that "have wronged him and his". I don't think he's the devil, but I really do think he crossed a line here.
|
I'm not sure if there's any line to cross on posting comments on your personal twitter that nobody needs to follow. But just based on his comments today, I think he's more of a douche than a troll. And no, I didn't have a problem with what he said about Poland in march :f
