Well he did run it down.
Smoothie flash engaged at level 4 with no wave. But yeah let's blame Akaadian.

TSM is a good jungler away from competing with TL consistently though IMO.
Bot routinely loses lane and applies zero pressure. There are WAY more problems on this team than jungler. Bjergsen still gets consistently out-roamed by opposing midlaners in laning phase. BrokenBlade has been nowhere near worth dropping DL for to this point. Nowhere near as good as prime Hauntzer.

TSM with Akaadian is like 1-6 or 1-7 now.

TSM with Grig is I think 5-3.



Explain how anything else matters beyond that?

You mean like how there are 4 other players that dictate whether TSM wins or loses any given game? How clueless about League do you have to be to mindlessly apply judgement on a single player based strictly off of W-L in a team game?

Sure, but the flip side of that is the jungler often dictates how those lanes go.

So if the only change is the jungle swap, and they play better and win more, how in the world you gonna play the guy that loses all the time?

Not when you have your support flashing under tower at level 4 with no wave and your adc can't even hit a yas Q.

That is one time. Out of like 7 losses. You can't always just blame the bot lane.


Grig has looked better for awhile now.

Greace was on the same stupid line of logic for a while until I pointed out the stupid arse comps Akaadian had to play with vs. the more standard comps Grig got to play with, especially early on in the season. It's not on Akaadian that he had to jungle while TSM was playing Pyke top and Ryze mid.

I've watched every game they've played this split. It's not an Akaadian problem. The team as a whole has horrible decision making and pick/ban was awful early on. He's just the one that looks bad being stuck as the primary engage most of the time or plays resulting in him being the sacrificial lamb to make up for a stupid call.

He's not perfect, but he's definitely better than Grig.

Well I would agree early on, but now the sample size is getting large. It's not just a slow start or a couple of losses now.

He literally just came off a game where he had 80% KP on Sejuani in a win. I think he'll be fine.

Bot lane however.... ugh.

Yeah, it'll be interesting to see how it all plays out.


Between that and the health of Licorice those are two biggest storylines that may impact playoffs/worlds.

I just get more and more salty with each passing week as BB continues to be mediocre and bot lane continues to have no pressure. Regi had the Midas touch with roster changes in the past but this has by far been his worst move. He had the two best native players in the entire league and just gave one away. Blows my mind.

Yeah and I liked BB in the spring split, and he always did well vs Impact too. Seems to have stalled in his development or something.

C9 loses to last place Echo Fox, no Licorice again and used Blaber.


That team is a bit of a mess as well, their bot lane is mediocre as is their jungle situation where both Blaber and Sven have looked very meh for awhile now.

He should be decent enough to beat a non playoff NA team yes.


TL with an impressive stomp of CLG.

He was decent enough to make finals too.

I believe he held a 4-3 gamescore lead over TL that split.

The glory split.

I believe that puts him 2-6 this split. #GOAT

I believe you're wrong.

Again.

He's 3-4 not including RR in case you actually care about reality.

That makes him 16-9 in the regular season during his time with TSM. If you include playoffs the record moves to 24-15.

I was including rift rivals and wasn't the one that posted his initial 1-4 start a few pages back either.

It's really weird you attach your wagon so heavily to someone that has performed so poorly for over a month now with a negative win ratio and was signed to be the Academy jungler.

But you die on that hill bro while TSM fails to make Worlds again.
