if 100t ever plays tsm then hiko will drop 50 including seven 1v3 clutches

lol a stream how fantastic

i’m biased as a fan, i’d prefer tsm vs 100T. tsm vs t1 in a semi would be ok tho.

TSM vs T1 or 100T everybody wants it

jcStani did not play well the last time he played TSM, which to be fair was during his time on ABX.

A grand final between TSM and 100T would be awesome for a monthly tourney. Everybody wants another TSM vs T1 matchup in the semifinals, too. For the storyline, it would be cool to see TSM play ZMM Silver (Bo1 redemption), DZ (ex-TSM drone), or TSM Academy in the playoffs. I also wouldn’t complain about playing ABX or RNG.

Those are obviously dream scenarios, it will be difficult to beat the YFP bracket with wins against 3 orgs (geng t1 faze).

i had abx winning this group and ZMM.S qualifying through the decider, but i changed my pickem after they earned my respect against tsm.

Oh yeah, another positive was the new coach, I forgot.

32-21 overall round differential, for what it’s worth

The positive here is that TSM developed 244 rounds worth of chemistry, with quality wins over GenG, T1, and FaZe (who are all similar in that they used to be borderline Tier1 before falling off recently). Winning the whole thing feels nice and all, but +exp is more important. For reference, TSM played about 350 rounds in each open qualifier.

aww it’s too late for that

consensual ofc

that could sell too, just to a different crowd

you baited us! 😢

edit: nvm

i’d live the most fulfilled life ever

a roster with jcStani, nitr0, BabyJ, and Ethan could have made millions at a male strip club on the weekends.

u got em really good dexter! what a bad bad boy 🥶 lmao ily

i’d personally live sucking my wife’s ass

lol right, it’s almost like their relationship has… gone bad already if that’s a genuine requirement from her

actually feel good for bang. started his career in low Tier 2 teams, joined TSM for their best VCT run of 2021, then subbed for FIVE smaller teams before joining BBG. At BBG, he got poetic revenge on TSM and proved himself to a point where 100T is empowering him to compete against Tier 1 NA competition for a chance to compete internationally.

i mean, respect to them, but ppl are gonna shit on tsm ruthlessly if they lose, no matter what

korsonix is cracked, and that team is actually playing their hearts out to win this. tsm hasn't been trolling by any means, but they don't need/want it as much as the other guys, who are trying to make a name for themselves.
that's the excuse we use if tsm lose

i don't think i could show my face around this forum if TSM loses to "Boba Boy"

im 21, get on vlr during the matches and also while im at work. that's the main deal. im working an office job and bored out of my mind so i hang out with you degenerates :) i'm also more active when tsm is playing, fwiw.

any team that TSM beats is immediately relegated to Tier 3, just like the 2021 Stage 3 run. including Gen.G, T1, and FaZe apparently lol.

he's much more calculated on smokes/IGL, his initiator was a bit of a throw. And Rossy is ridiculous on Kay/O, even more versatile than Hazed, invaluable player to the team.

jett diff by corey? should have let corey play jett on faze? (based on a $2500 tourney?)

u know the yfp organizers are shitting themselves with excitement over how well the bracket turned out. you get tsm viewership + they play (borderline) Tier1 teams in every round.

aye captain, nothing more refreshing than tilting a smurf reyna first round with a shorty so their mental never recovers

prims: new friend

tsm is more powerful than the storyline nvm lol

faze finally confirmed after winning 2-1, this will be fun. tsm has had the opportunity to play geng, t1, and faze in a tourney full of tier 2/3 teams.

unlike steel

brimstone is like a 24/7 sandstorm in his smokes, shit is so funny. same with viper ig. bubble smokes are weirder for sure lol.

i love corey, but no no no lol. it's good that he's confident enough to pick one up if absolutely necessary, but I've seen him lose battles he should have won with an OP. keep him on skilled guns, he's completely off the chart on rifle.

hey, leave steel alone! on a good day, he's right up there with Trent when it comes to Sova in NA. He has more years of experience than you've been alive. It's not his fault that his local CVS pharmacy didn't refill his arthritis prescription in time this week!

ok gents, BabyJ is giving live updates on his stream of this game.
currently faze 2-4 RID

currently 5-5

oh boy
all in all, tsm wins this feud easily. they were getting blown out in the first series, but t1 literally cheated and lost. then tsm beat t1 legitimately without the help of coaches or twitter.

;)

ok so basically on defense just put a smoke+suck at each site entrance, save the last star for a rainy day. it doesn't have to be big brain, esp for me i'm in gold lmao. on attack, just learn a few default smokes for each map and do that every round until ur team chooses a site. for example, on haven i put a suck for a long, stun for a short, and smoke for garage window. i can use them if my jett is running up a, or i can pull them back and save them.
sitting in smokes w a shorty is also a HIGH SKILL play.

i can play any agent in the game except Omen, and initiators are my least favorite. it's hard to anchor without smokes or trips, it's hard to attack without comms so ppl can play off ur utility, etc. Plus initiators just aren't fun for me.
Astra is still a lot of fun when I duo with my KJ friend or trio with a Sova added as well. Just came back from a 3-11 yesterday, aced the last round to win 14-12 with 29 kills on her.

i am a gold astra/viper main. when i solo, i play chamber. it's the only solution.

um...
there goes the storyline, tsm chokes haven and loses 1-2 to T1 now. everything is ruined.

it's hard to say "T1 isn't trying, they're just trolling" when they're calling this many timeouts

excellent shit from corey. tsm was at their best when drone could frag out alongside wardell (as you said). bang wasn't quite enough (and maybe he wasn't given enough time, love him as a player personally), but corey can 100% be that player. And he can play meta agents, not just Phoenix.

oh yeah im happy, if tsm closes out this series then i don't think faze or tsm.a will be a problem.

two big rounds i saw
1) aleko stayed on A site while steel tried to solo plant with 4 teammates rushing B, got that kill.
2) aleko ulted steel, steel got res'd, and then aleko randomly spammed steel through a viper smoke mid.
"is it a requirement to be braindead to join tsm" -steel, about aleko

For THIS tournament, it's fair. Both teams in the Grand Final will have to play three Bo3 matches. Unlike VCT, where the lower seed plays three and the higher seed only plays one.

lmaooooo i saw him call a timeout (i also expected him to be suspended for longer) and thought "oh shit he's back"
