People only started leaving in the middle of the season though...and even if their roster is strong it's still small as hell.


FruitDealer/Trickster were dead weight. Puma only played one match. Weirdly, he beat Polt to win the first match for TSL. TSL won 4 games after that without him.

Polt/Clide should help each other in TvT. Maybe their bromance can be as strong as Polt/MKP/Maka.

Either way having a half-empty bench means that your team isn't in good shape.


But their team is in great shape... No matter how you look at it, they have a solid team capable of going deep in a Bo9 in Teamleague.

It probably has something to do with Prime focusing a lot of their attention on making money via their new clothing website, in which Polt may have not liked because he comes off as someone that's focused on improving his game and the team rather than making money. I don't know if you guys have seen the video of Prime players in their house going nuts when Fenix destroyed oGs, there was a lot of banter, swearing and screaming and for some reason I can't really imagine Polt's personality fitting to well with the rest of the team. He is after all a Seoul National University student and more often than not, in Korea you can assume that a student of that caliber to be very calm, quiet, and always hard working which I'm sure fits better in to TSL's philosophy than Prime's.

That's exactly what i thought. I like TSL. TSL / IM / NSHS are my favourites teams worldwide. Polt produces fantastic results and he is a fearsome opponent for every player, regardless of race and skill. Congrats to TSL after their recent roster drama.

The more I think about this the more it makes sense.

The reaction to getting to GSTL playoffs is pure passion IMO, but I agree that the team seems to be quite young overall and full of energy and some strange guys (mainly BB). I think the clothing store is necessary to keep the team trucking along but I can see Polt not being into it as much as the others. I'm sure Prime works as hard as TSL but the philosophy and atmosphere of the teams may different (especially with Coach Lee's experience)

apparently with all the pickups and the fact that they're letting major live with them etc, they aren't.

That, or in about 2 months we'll hear how everyone's leaving again because no one's getting paid, but they're all bound by gentleman's agreements to stay with the team.

I really hope it starts to work out for them, because watching a team fall apart is never something you want to see

TSL looking strong with their current lineup and up and comers + recent additions Polt and Major.

meh having a bunch of players who are not very good also doesn't do anything.


Not exactly true, as long as the players are above a certain minimum skill level they make valuable practice partners. (also it's sometimes hard to predict players who are going to breakout of the lower brackets - so they're potential future talent and a way of maintaining the skill level for the more skilled members of the team).

TSL seems to be on the way to become GSTL Champion.

Would be funny if Polt was send out to play Prime (if they ever play against each other )

Coach Lee really deserves all of the positive press TSL has been getting lately, especially after how much shit he's had to take over all the players that have left.

Hopefully the new players can respect this and maintain a good image while delivering for the team.
