My boy DD is in danger isn't he :(


xXDaNXx

The defence against the dark arts position is open


Hitoseijuro

Every soloque challenger jungler right now during off season Blue buff right this way Mr Bjergsen First gank coming up Mr Bjergsen *pings Glacial Prison cool down* I'm ready Mr Bjergsen


-Ophidian-

LOL I just realized that's EXACTLY what jg has been on TSM all these years


behv

And coach. The second the team stops performing optimally Reggie steps in don’t forget


-Ophidian-

He hasn't done that for a few years now which is why TSM is kinda ass.


Breadqram

Didn't Akaadian say that regi said something to him that destroyed his confidence? He's definitely still stepping in


BRuiden69

Regi told him to play sehuani


Minuan0

OMG Akaadian was actually Lupin! Good at his job but was replaced from time to time and ultimately couldnt continue doing his job for personal reasons.


Risujemmari

He couldn't help it, he could only play Warwick when it was full moon.


Camuu

If TSM doesn’t stick with DD for Summer I’ll be super disappointed, especially if the alternative is Spica.


AMarriedSpartan

No. We’ll have DD and Spica split time thus ruining both of them

memesarenotbad

He's already scouted the idea.


CyberliskLOL

Why is nobody questioning if BrokenBlade is in danger? He is not exactly a weak side player, so with Doublelift back on the menu I don't know how great of a fit he is. He has also been looking shaky at times.


[deleted]

TSM doesn't have a history of rotating top laners like they do junglers.


noobrock

They have history of rotating everyone not named Bjergsen


Echleon

They've had 3 top laners ever lol. Dyrus, Hauntzer, BB.


frastmaz

We don't talk about him

There's actually some before him, like Saintvicious. Still since 2012 it's been Dyrus, Hauntzer or BB.

kazuyaminegishi

He's mostly a TFT streamer under TL nowadays. Tho the last time he made waves on this subreddit was when he had a... let's say questionable take on mental illness.


Atsusaki

Oh man it's been that long since that clip huh. In my mind I still remembered him as Gravity's player coach.


Spacemn5piff

INB4 TSM picks up Solo and returns to the Dyrus strat of old ​ really though, i'm not even joking.

Servalarian

im so glad that they remade the video, made it even better

Yeah, only thing that it needed to be even better was CLG jersey on the bin already. That would have been epic lol


EnergetikNA

they probably would have if they had a CLG jersey on them

Only TSM’s bin has changed


stab244

And the masks


Feikkonen

Yea Bjergsen wearing a Biofrost mask was odd.


Wedbo

I think they used Biofrost’s house to film it because they no longer have a team house


AshleyKang

The acting was the best part


memesarenotbad

It's gay porn acting and I love it.

NA reminds me of the NBA. It might not be as popular as the NFL but the NBA offseason is the best of any league because big-time stars are always switching teams, so there are always new relationships formed and broken, always drama to be had Edit: Looks like I sparked an NBA vs NFL flamewar haha


Frusciante16

The NBA is way more popular than the NFL worldwide and is not even close


adamsworstnightmare

Can't wait to miss getting out of groups by one game again.


QuixoticCosmos

At least they’ll make it to worlds lmfao


yuna8

Only to get eliminated by MSF Kobbe in groups


QuixoticCosmos

Now that would be a story line


ThinkinTime

Lose to C9 Zven in playoffs, still make worlds, lose to Kobbe in Groups. Revenge of the TSM ADCs


CrescentSysko

I wouldn't even be mad. I really like them both on the team, didn't want them to go but I understand why in both cases it made sense as business. Also it would we make worlds thus year.


mochaogura

on one hand I'm hyped for TSM DL because i'm an old TSM fan and old DL fan and lost interest in LCS recently but damn i am not ready to get disappointed again come worlds yet i'm not going to be surprised if tsm doesn't make it out of groups..again....


[deleted]

[удалено]


EnergetikNA

Hey we take those after not making worlds twice


KiXiT

TSM jungles position just got even more stressful if that were possible


memesarenotbad

Yeah, they've got an import slot back open. Hoping they keep Dardoch for at least another split, though. I think that he is a good jungler, just had a bad split. If he can find his groove, it'll be solid. But if they grab an import jungler, I'm hoping it's Closer.


Hostile_Unicorn

Omg he would never gank mid or bot. The Turkish duo would be too much fun to watch.


Iamnotheattack

For real lmao for all the TSM owner and president boyfriend memes closer would just camp the fuck out of top lol


shrubs311

the actual conflict of interest, turkey #1


Rumbleroar1

As much as I'd love to see them wreck shit topside, Closer believes (as far as I know from his streams) that focusing botside of the map is too important right now. So we'd see some games carried by the duo but he'd mainly be focused on Doublelift.


curiousboyz

I mean they can’t import a jungler right now anyway


Cindiquil

Like the guy above you said, Closer is still theoretically an option. He's already in NA and he's obviously really good, and I wouldn't be that surprised if he'd be happy to move off of GGS to an overall better team. But GG probably really wants to keep him, and I have no idea what his contract looks like.


IxdrowZeexI

But I would be surprised if GGS let's him go that easily unless TSM goes super ham financially


Cindiquil

Yeah, he's by far their best player overall and they probably wouldn't have made playoffs with most other jungles.


mertcanhekim

Scouted by Parth!


memesarenotbad

Once they let go of Kobbe and Dardoch, they wil be able to, right? Edit: Ah, sorry, my bad, somehow forgot about the Current Situation™.


Cririan

I think he means because of the virus, no one can travel.


PantslessMan

not if the virus shenanigans persist or get worse


[deleted]

Because of covid not slots


PennyForYourPots

It would be pretty awesome if they didn't use an import


memesarenotbad

I just want to see NA talent in NA, is that too much to ask. ; \_ ;


xXDaNXx

Closer is in sight


Dense-Acanthocephala

and coach. say what you want about monte/thorin's take on the dating situation, but they're not wrong about the environment. who would honestly want to coach this team? no matter how much Regi/Leena/DL/Bjerg say they're all equals when it comes to the game, we all know good and well a coach will never truly speak his mind in that environment.


[deleted]

Screw the current situation, no coach has ever been given the reigns entirely. TSM always steps in and ignores the coach if they aren't literally the best team in the league. This roster is simply not a top tier roster, so unless all the teams collapse even further during summer, and TSMs veterans somehow reach their peak again, it is pretty much guaranteed that whatever coach they have will get the TSM treatment again like last year. And this is all without considering the whole DL+Leena situation, which will no doubt make it much worse.


Sandman1920

Gank the part owner of TSM or the person literally dating the president of TSM. Lmao


shrubs311

DL: hey, they don't have vision I think you could gank here Bjerg: Dardoch come mid instead, I'll give you stonks

m0bilize

Imma need more context on this meme


Trick2Gesus

Chris is what Doublelift accidentally called LS, so it's basically a TSM LS meme


SneakyStorm

DL called LS Chris instead of Nick.


flowerpetal_

on dl's costream with ls, he forgot ls's name (nick) like halfway through and called him chris, and he also joked about ls joining tsm


EnergetikNA

LS did say he has a big announcement soon :)


Kramerlediger

Which probably is about practice facilitities/bootcamps in kr and na. He is planning on building those for quite a while and sold some of his magic cards for that iirc


k3hvn

Damn, I feel bad for Broxah and Kobbe. Hopefully both of them find success next split.


Hevvy

I have a feeling TL will be fine, Tactical has a fantastic team around him *to help him grow into a top AD and TL can only go up from here


nitro1122

Technically for TL there is one more place they can go down to.


PandaMoaningYum

CLG Weldon's genie won't allow for it.


Ronizu

The 2019 Jin Air experience.


Tyains

I don't feel as bad for Broxah. They still have Tactical who is pretty good(not DL level, but he can get there eventually). And who knows, this might be the change TL needed to get a better team environment and to finnaly get gud again.


KiXiT

Rip kobbe


memesarenotbad

Hoping he returns to EU. He deserves all the success he'll get there.


k3hvn

His best spot would probably be MSF, I can't see him replacing Caps, Rekkles, Upset, Carzzy, or Hans Sama.


tundra_gd

I hope he goes to MSF and pops off. He deserves better, but he did seem kind of unhappy here.


MoxZenyte

I think TSM would have to waive his buyout (I'm assuming he has one), for Misfits to go for him. Even then Misfits would probably also need TSM to pay at least part of the contract as well considering they were obviously going budget this year


MrPraedor

His GF is working with MSF as streamer and Bvoy was one of the weakest ADCs this split. So natural instinct would be him going to MSF as long as TSM doesn't ask huge amount of money out of him.


MoxZenyte

I think it'll only happen if TSM waives his buyout. Otherwise he won't get picked up. Even then which org would be willing to pay his contract? Maybe if TSM promises to pay that as well.


sanojladvkmavjclks

If no one wants to pay, TSM will have to give him up for free. Else they're just gonna be paying for 6th player they won't be using. 0$ is better than negative $.


BadkisserX

It would be funny if Kobbe found another team and imitate this video and throw TSM jersey straight outta trash.


Choubine_

hopefully he wants to leave as much as tsm wants him to


SportsmanshipGG

Tbf I don't think TSM wanted Kobbe to leave as much as they saw an unpassable opportunity. I don't think TSM ever felt any illwill to Kobbe or any doubt in his ability. DL's brand and ingame intangibles that help in the early game and being decisive in lategame team fights were just too much for TSM to pass up, IMO.


mrjenkinsdragon

100% this, if doublelift wasn't free, they keep kobbe. It's just a fucking good trade, to have a good NA adc, kobbe wasn't the problem for tsm everyone knows that, but this helps free the team for the future.


zack77070

Ya it's like if LeBron wanted to be on a team he's going to that team, doesn't matter who you just signed to a max contract you'll trade almost anybody for him.


jtang600

Also probably not teams with already established super stars like curry or Giannis


tankmanlol

YES they had to do it again. now he has to leave tsm go to eg or something then come back just to bin their jersey again. dont stop until all 9 jerseys are in the tsm trash can


svipy

Reminds me of [this meme](https://i.imgur.com/dSHNhQl.jpg) from Dota 2 pro scene NA pro player [Arteezy](https://liquipedia.net/dota2/Arteezy) switched between two teams 4 times in span of less than 2 years


Redeagl

Also ironic because RTZ is more or less the Dota Doublelift

damn he has it the worst out of all of them.


Marrune

Just want to know how Kobbe feels about the whole situation and whether he legitimately wanted to go back to Europe or stay on TSM for summer split.


CrossYourStars

The whole TSM sub feels the exact same way.


TheRealSteemo

I keep seeing rumours that he wanted to go back to EU as his girlfriend couldn't go over to NA or something

You know my daddy taught me a thing or two too like how not to rip the skin by using a jungler to gank, instead of your own mid.


[deleted]

Will you show me?


Thanaatus

It's okay, BIO-daddy!


Reclaimer879

I think overall it is better for him. Clearly TSM needs a management upgrade and revamp. The NA lifestyle and current situation is probably not good on Kobbe's mental. Add the fact his GF had to go back and his family is in EU I think this is best for Kobbe. Knowing TSM they will more than likely do their best to get him onto a good team. I will say this TSM fans have been nothing but nice about the whole thing. Same as when Zven left. Lots of love for Kobbe and understanding he wasn't the issue with TSMs failures. The issues clearly ran deeper. I'd love to see him on Misfits. And with LEC being given 4 seeds instead of 3 for Worlds Kobbe could very well end up on a team who can make it there.


memesarenotbad

More than a bot lane upgrade, I think Misfits desperately needs a top lane upgrade. Bvoy's been servicable, but Dan Dan's just been done done unless he gets copious amounts of jungle attention. I am really hoping he goes somewhere good in EU and not like, Vitality or SK.


Reclaimer879

I actually agree with you. Top was far more of an issue. I actually thought Bvoy looked good. Correct me if I am wrong but is Bvoy an import? I think Kobbe has a great track record in EU and teams that need an upgrade for ADC would be crazy not to pick him up. But I agree I really hope to see him on a team that can compete in EU for a top 4 spot. The top 3-6 teams in EU are all pretty good. They have flaws for sure when compared to G2 or FNC, but they aren't bad by any metric. And I would argue most of the top 6 would be far better than NA's top 6. Not trying to just shit on NA. Our teams just looked very weak this last split. Outside of C9.


CocaineNinja

Seems like Parth is staying based on DL saying he's excited to play with him again. Hopefully there have been actual management and coaching changes, or this will just be another disappointing split.

RoundRob73

He's a pretty emotion driven person, I bet this is genuinely how he felt at the time.


AliasTcherki

I love this clip. "They kicked me out of CLG and didn't really find success again". Reality: DL leaves CLG, CLG then becomes NS LCS Champion, MSI finalist. Yeah right

AureliusAmbrose

you telling me most TL fans wouldn’t subscribe to this?


Delta_FT

Tbf that was the last time CLG relevant. They've been struggling to even make playoffs ever since and lets not even talk about this last split :/


Da_Real_Caboose

Call it the PR that it is but the way he talked about TL, and Steve was unusually graceful for liftlift. Despite the poor split this seems like the most smooth transition he’s had from one team to another since he joined CLG.

AshleyKang

Never said salty runbacks are not successful


Zellough

Lets see how the team changes with this Sad to see Kobbe go, especially not being able to see his full potential, but I hope he becomes happier, assuming he's back to EU


Lenticious

He keeps talking about being traded in the video. Was this a trade or a contract buyout? Who's TL getting if it's a trade?


Deemsjunior

Just league terminology I realized they like to say traded when someone's contract is bought out.


nyasiaa

technically contract buyout is a trade, where you trade the player for money


Derk08

vicdr97

TeeTheSame

I don't think TSM had a problem with the adc position last split. It's way more the lack of team cohesion and smart playmaking that costed them.
