Can TSM sign new players before Worlds? If so, we will see if Regi really have balls to bench some players right before Worlds.
Pretty sure Locodoco getting sacked thou. Free agency/trading period ended on July 15: https://riot-web-static.s3.amazonaws.com/lolesports/Rule Sets/2015 Summer LCS Rule Set Version 2_03.pdfI can't find any dates on when trade windows re-open, but last year, it was the day after worlds, so I assume the same for this year. So TSM's only possible roster moves for Worlds would be Dyrus<->BillyBoss, Turtle<->Keith and Lustboy<->Patoy.
none of those sound like upgrades tho

Zion Spartan is the MVP of the series? Granted, he did well on Yasuo in game 1. Doublelift clearly should've been MVP. Lets look at the stats.
Game 1, Double has highest kill participation and second highest overall damage next to Pobelter. Zion had the second highest kill participation, shit on Dyrus, applied a lot of pressure on the map. Lets give this game to Zion, even though it could be debatable.
Game 2, Double gets a fucking pentakill, deals the most damage in the game, and second highest kill participation to Aphro. Zion has the lowest kill participation, only does 1.5k more damage to champs than Xmithie, and is generally doesn't do anything amazing or special.
Game 3, Double has the highest kill participation and second highest damage next to Pobelter. Zion has the lowest kill participation, only does 2.7k more damage to champs than Xmithie and less overall damage than Xmithie.
Why the fuck would Zion be the MVP of this series? Because he counter picked one game and shit on Dyrus? If anything, Xmithie deserved the MVP more than Zion since he had more game impact, but clearly it was Doublelift who carried the hardest and was actually the Most Valuable Player on the team for the series.

Couldnt watch it live but CLG winning is absolutely glorious
LGD+CLG, OG lost tho...2 outta 3 ain't bad though and OG taking Fnatic 5 was a pleasant surprise.
I'm still firmly in the "all western teams will get rekt at worlds, yes even Fnatic" camp but I wouldn't complain if CLG went on a miracle run.

Well I meant that they could win it.

I sense that you are very upset that TSM - undeniably the best team in the world in all roles, was convincingly defeated 0-3 by CLG, a team that only a few seasons ago was on the brink of being relegated. This may come as quite the shock to you, however, do keep in mind that no team is immortal and that even legends such as SKT, Samsung White, and EDG have been 0-3ed in their respective regions.
Have faith. A true TSM fan would not just abandon ship in the face of adversity. I'm still wielding my C9 flair even when they finished summer split in 7th place. Being a fan is about supporting your team in times of struggle

Now that you mention, I don't think SKT K has EVER been 3-0d. All those series they lost to white were 3-1
I got exactly what I wanted out of today. So much so that I can't even believe it. All I wanted out of OG vs Fnatic was a good series and Yellowstar/xPeke hug- got that. And I dared to believe CLG would take a dump on TSM- oh boy did I get that

Is it my turn to portray your beliefs inaccurately in an effort to make it seem like you are upset by some result that you actually thought might happen?
Also my being a fan of a team doesn't obligate me to overestimating their strength, as it does some people. I like TSM. I like CLG. I think CLG is better than TSM. I have an LGD flair. I could switch my flair to CLG. All of these things are consistent with eachother.

Zion played out of his mind and constantly outplayed. he drew so much pressure and made dyrus his bitch. really nice tp's too. however he didn't abuse his lead as much but that's forgiven seeing how even with that he made huge advantages out of the toplane. doublelift played great. no real qualms here but turtle also had a solid series besides the last game troll recall lol. doublelift's been great this entire playoffs. pobelter was the one who stood out to me today though. he neutralized bjergsen (this is probably the lowest impact series from bjergsen since like vs UOL) and was incredibly on point in fights. I think MVP to any of the 3 is well deserved but zion definitely had more 'highlights'.
I suppose he did have more LCS big play outside of the pentakill. Pobelter did play very well this series. His Viktor play has come a long-long way since his Winterfox days, that's for sure. You also have to consider Pobelter was laning against Yasuo for two games in a row... Why again was Bjergsen playing Yasuo so much? Take-away pick from Zion even though they were picking him Gnar?

Bjerg apparently spammed a ton of yasuo in yoloq.
Zion's outplay as gnar vs naut and yasuo top lane game 2 was insane.

If anything, I've gained some respect for limping goat. Although perhaps not gracefully or pointedly executed, it takes guts to admit you were wrong.
And I'm always down to see logic, reason, and proof overturn blind faith / belief.

This CLG team reminds me of SKT with Bengi & Eazyhoon
I feel like the Xmithie hate is similar to Bengi hate. Sure he makes mechanical misplays but he does a very good job of getting vision and keeping his lanes safe.

To be fair, Xmithie really was awful at the start of the split. He's improved a LOT since then though, but the bandwagon isn't so good at admitting that Xmithie isn't bad anymore- at least for NA standards.
That said,
:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
CLG <3

improved a lot as in learned a 2nd champion, now he is decent on gragas AND ekko
he vastly over performed this serie, i'm sure we can look forward lots of hilarious fails in the future from him.
