TSM changes | VLR.gg

according to recent reports, it seems that TSM is reevaluating to see what the best core would be around wardell and subroza (which is smart IMO cause they are TSM's two most talented players). what do u guys think is the best changes for them to make? Leviathan is kinda a question mark but I think he has a decent chance of staying, same with hazed but hazed could potentially move to coach if TSM can snag another star player (that is if hazed is willing to step down which we obv don't know). I think TSM's roster in a good scenario could look something like this for next year:

Wardell: Jett/Sage (maybe other duelists if he picks them up)
Subroza: flex/controller
Leviathan: sova/flex
TiGG: controller
Corey/YaBoiDre: duelist/flex

coach: hazed + someone else idk

Honestly I think if TSM underperform next year again just let go of main roster and rebuild with academy

looking at payen's stats i think he's pretty good for the main roster.

This roster is about to look like the next NRG/FaZe

No IGL will kill the team, hopefully they start trialing actually experienced IGLs instead

Actually that does bring them back to their status quo. Constantly dissapointing. Just like every other game. That seems like a fix in my book.

Wardell
Corey
Dre (said he wants to play smokes)
Roza (flex/Sky)

Missing a sova, fuck sova. This team would be pretty damn good.

Alright so based on the reports there's a few options but I'll present 4 based on them trialing TiGG and corey
Option 1: corey but no TiGG
Wardell(Jett/Sage)
Subroza(flex/smokes)
corey(2nd duelist/flex)
Levi(sova)
Hazed/payen/Rush/Steel(Sentinel/Smokes and IGL)
Option 2: TiGG but no corey
Wardell(Jett/Sage)
Subroza(Flex)
Levi(sova)
TiGG(smokes)
Hazed/payen/Rush/Steel(Sentinel and IGL)
Option 3: TiGG and corey but no Levi
Wardell(Jett/Sage)
Subroza(sova/flex)
corey(2nd duelist/flex)
TiGG(smokes/sova)
Hazed/payen/Rush/Steel(Sentinel/smokes and IGL)
Option 4: TiGG and corey with Levi
Wardell(Jett/Sage)
Subroza(flex)
corey(2nd duelist)
Levi(sova)
TiGG(smokes)

My opinion:

Wardell and Subroza is definitely staying so that lacks 3 players, a really good smoker, a bigbrain creative sentinel/igl/lurker like dapr or thwifo playstyle, a good sova or another duelist if levi is staying. Yassine in skye is fine but he'd be more consistent than switching skye to omen from time to time.

From a long time ago I think TSM is already good as it is.
Wardell + Subroza is good core already.
I think they just need to fix their mentality. Rooster change is not needed too much.

imo should just rebuilt all their roster. wardell and subroza are good, but tsm as a whole failed us with their roster changes. maybe keeping wardel and subroza are not the answer.

Nah Wardell and Subroza still one of the best player in NA they just need a right support and team play style to make the reborn as a team. Wardell is willing to take less op and use rifle on attacking. Subroza just need to have a right role with his play style and thats not a smoke IMO

-TiGG +good igl that can sentinel/flex, YaBoiDre said he wants to main smokes so that would take care of their lack of a controller maybe they keep hazed bc he is their igl

Wardell- jett
Subroza-skye/flex
Levi-sova
YaBoiDre-controller
Hazed-sentinel/flex or other igl

IMO, Subroza could IGL if he wants to. He's done the mid round calling during the first stage of VCT and if he had a good coach to guide him then he could become a really good IGL. TSM has nearly 3 months to practice and come with some good chemistry before the next VCT starts.
They could pick up both TiGG and Corey if they want. That would increase TSM's firepower and reduce the burden on Wardell to frag out or get entries.

IMO TSM have to Keep Levi. Levi is a pretty good sova nerd, one of the best in NA on Sova. The only missing link is a decent smoker in TSM, you can't give subroza smoke roles, he will lose the aggresive tendency/TSM will lose smoker (Die fast) because of his aggresive play style. If Hazed play smokes, TSM still have to look for decent Sentinel, but i think is best for hazed play sentinels. But i think i kinda agree with hazed step up for coach role, pretty good experience in Tier 1 FPS game and very often disscussed with Chet

Dre wants to play smokes so he probably doesn't make it over TiGG
