I love Dyrus but i also started to think that Dyrus weakest link on TSM. I dont think they can aim for World Championship with him :/ But who can replace him? time to poach brown flame. :D Is zorozero still playing league? or did he quit? Eh, you'd need someone like a Steak to replace Dyrus for it to be a net positive (even excluding long-standing team dynamics/synergy and the effects of bringing on a new player to a team): someone who can sacrifice alot of personal power early, either by drawing jungler aggro constantly or deliberately to get some cross-map objective to help their team, and still reliably catch up from a large early power trough to have an impact later on. Essentially, replacing Dyrus with a carry-top lane is completely wrong and doesn't fit with the team's playstyle and the reason why fucking CLG was so horrible with their top laners for so long (bringing on carry top laners and making them play like supportive top lanes). No, no. TSM needs someone like Gogoing. He is the most solid top laner i've ever watched.

Zorozero is playing again, I think he's currently around masters but idk how the school system works in Denmark whether he can make a comeback anytime soon. That being said Bjergsen will be a resident next year so you never know. Actually, isn't flame stuck in LGD prison? Regi could throw some money at them. Does Regi have 500k to throw at Flame? i believe the quote was "he could buy 2 ferraris, crash them, and his bank account wouldn't know the difference".
Source? I'm extremely skeptical on that.

I think it was something Dan Dinh said on stream or something? It's always brought up when talking about how much TSM's worth.

You shouldnt be skeptical about it though, he owns both TSM and probuilds. He is a millionare.

I don't doubt he's probably worth a couple mill, but two Ferraris is half a mill. 25% of your net worth is not something you wouldn't care about lol.

That being said Bjergsen will be a resident next year so you never know. 88th in challenger at the moment. I think he broke 50 at some point. And Regi is currently on rampage of sponsoring danes with Santorin, CS:GO and Leffen (no top danish Smash players so he went for next best thing). What I mean by that is fucking confirmed (assuming Wonderful didn't lie to me and Lemondogs v2 really isn't happening).

No, no. TSM needs someone like Gogoing. He is the most solid top laner i've ever watched. Sound about right. That's the type of top laner TSM would need to replace Dyrus with, and you have residency, fanbase, team synergy/dynamics, and language barriers to surmount afterwards if you're looking for a Dyrone replacement.
The question becomes: is trying to replace Dyrus necessary/worth the other possible risks that replacing one of the longest-standing TSM members right now entails, when you can just, you know, get Dyrus to improve? Not really, especially not after IEM.
It's like why I'm not expecting a C9 roster swap even with their fucking abysmal under-performance this tourney. Replacing Lomonation or Hai means alot of intangible consequences, and having a stable team environment is worth quite abit by itself, more than trying a mid-year restructure. Those are only if there's a glaring issue outside of just game performance (or aforementioned game performance of the team is absolutely shite), and if a team is desperate. Neither currently describe TSM atm.

Sure regi can crush two ferraris but LGD can crush even more ferraris. Checkmate NA can't keep up with Chinese ferrari crushing metagame, don't even get me started on iG's ferrari crushing prowess.

Actually now that TSM tasted championship, I wouldn't be suprised if Dyrus retired and became a streamer during summer or after Worlds. I still rate Dyrus highly but if you can get someone world class, you do.

Someone make me a ranking of the wealth of CN pro teams. Thanks. Preferably in the ferrari wrecking metric so I can understand.

There's still the issue of who you'd replace him with, with residency restrictions in mind.
Answer: uh...

I think there was a video at the start of the season where Dyrus said this is likely going to be his final year so after worlds maybe.

Limping Goat is officially a prediction king. I don't know if he just calls TSM winning everytime, and got lucky, or if he actually did research, but he was right. Praise

Dyrus said on stream he's wanted to retire after every Worlds since S3, but only if he can find somebody he thinks he can replace him. Kind of like what Regi did until he could get ahold of Bjerg. Though, he has also said he flipflops on that often, so he doesn't really know when he intends to retire.
