So apparently we won't get to see the meme team every week. They only stream one game out of 6 per week in the Challenger Series.

What has happened to Reignover other than Huni not being there?

Sven is so bad, and that's with DL stomping lane. TSM is in real trouble.

I hope they reported Sven after that game.

Even with the Huni, RO should be OK..... he looks like hot garbage now.

I understand that other NA teams are getting better, but Jesus TSM is playing horribly. I wonder what the excuse will be this week.
Still rusty? No communication?
I know I know, TSM isn't always stellar in game one's but damn.
ETA: Bjerg needs to just start telling Parth to frick off and play what he wants. This Karma, lulu, galio bullshite doesn't work.
I've been saying it for the last few splits, I feel like TSM is hindered by the fact that they are CONSTANTLY overthinking the game. They try to force this pre-determined strategy through during games instead of adapting to what's going on.
Honestly, I'd love to see them play where they make the decisions for themselves both during champ select and win conditions. Let your talent actually use their talent.

CLG bans Galio, I would have left him open and just let TSM shoot themselves in the foot again.

Imagine that, having Bjerg on a mage mid and Hauntzer on a tank works.
ETA: Game 3, CLG doesn't ban lee and don't first pick him, giving him to Sven. Not sure why.

TSM decided to stop trying to copy SKT and play their own shite.

Parth needs to go I think. TSMs draft have been terrible for a long time now.

Remember how TSM improved throughout last split? I think it will be like that, except more exponential. Doublelift really understands the macro game and it isn't just Bjergsen carrying 100% of the load.. not just shotcalling in game but everything that happens in and around scrims. They basically have twice as much leadership now and I have so much faith in Double & Bjerg getting this shite turned around.
You can tell double hasn't gelled 100% with the team yet, but they have still looked very good when they have clicked. Pick/bans look like the team is trying to break out of comfort zones a bit. They have said repeatedly that they are willing to take losses in the regular season if it makes the team better in the long term. I think that is what you are seeing with the galio picks, etc.

You are correct (see video below), HOWEVER, Bjerg playing support/tank mids has put them at a MASSIVE disadvantage for several splits now. It's pretty clear that either he can't play that style or the rest of the team is incapable of picking up the carry slack. In any case, TSM is pretty much ALWAYS worse when Bjerg isn't on a carry champion.
In the video, Bjerg makes a comment about Galio (and other picks) being meta in Korea with really high win rates. I'm not sure how that's relevant if you can't effectively play him (or your team can't effectively carry their weight when you play him).
Why not build a strategy around playing champions that fit your style, but also either counter or at least go even with these "international meta picks"?
It's no wonder they always look so sloppy internationally. They are forcing themselves on picks they aren't comfortable with for the sake of "meta". I'd rather they ignore the meta and find their own identity. You aren't going to suddenly start beating the Korean teams playing champions you aren't comfortable with and that don't fit your style.
It almost reminds me of people in low elo picking champions because "champion.gg says Champ A counters Champ B" even though they can't play Champ A effectively.
"Everytime we shite the bed internationally, I wish we focused on these things earlier"

Comfort comes with repetition. Also, I remember bjergsen owning on lulu and tank Vladimir.
