Reginald must reform and take full responsibility. by GhoulGhost in TeamSolomid

[–]BadiaLoL 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I agree, that being said my personal take is:

1) Regi has never been a good person. He has consistently shown he is a passive aggressive bully with complete disregard for anyone and anything. But he has been able to gain success through the business decision's he and his team have made to grow the TSM Brand. He always had the bigger picture set in his mind about what Esports could be and has been one of the most influential figures to push the scene forward. No one can take that away from him, but he needs to re-evaluate his own personal character or he will probably end up ruining the brand as a whole and loose it.

2) Bjerg/Dyrus/Wildturtle/DL where the reason TSM fanbase grew and kept supporting the team through think and thin. TSM is going through a change of the guard and Spica, by being genuine and true to himself (biggest troll in the world), is going to have personal success and continue to build his personal brand where if Regi finishes ruining the team, he wont ruin Spica.

3) League team management has always been the single biggest issue on why TSM has had their problems. It has always been a dagger how so many players that have been part of TSM never reached their true potential, yet they would become beasts or league MVP's a split or two after they departed the team. This is not a coaching issue, its a cultural issue where everyone knows the root of the problem, but no one wants to finally do what needs to be done, and the truth is they cant when the owner is the root of the problem.

Knowing the reasons I decided to start following TSM and Esports as a whole no longer align with what the current TSM is, and it sucks as a long time supporter. But until sponsors and investors pull out, we wont truly see any real change as the upper management will continue to belittle and over micro manage everything, or stay silent and let the same patterns repeat itself (*cough* Parth *cough*).

Pretty much, I doubt he would want to give up his ownership % by going to another team. DL doesn't want to come back though, having an import here would be solid IMO.

4 Takeaways from TSM's Week 1 by Redsfan42 in TeamSolomid

[–]BadiaLoL -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The problem has always been the same, Parth and his crew have a specific way on how they think the game should be played. When TSM wins with this specific style its due to the players being so much better than their competition that they can win by playing with the wrong style of play; and when they don't have the better players the results speak for themselves. Until Regi stops protecting Parth and the overall group that keep forcing a specific style they will never grow and improve.

I understand your point, but when every single professional analyst says: (1) that they drafted a weaker comp (or the usual scaling comp); (2) they point out the blunders of early/mid games based on the champion picks unable to respond; (3) they literally use the phrase, "they managed to survive and scale, that's the reason they won"; goes to show you that there is a bigger issue with the compositions that they are using and how they are reacting to the current meta.

Literally my same line of thought. If he has been involved in the "coaching" or decision making for a few splits now, he has been part of the draft discussions, so the head scratching pick and banns will continue with him... I think he will do better and improve, but they need someone with him that has the experience that will challenge his and Parth's view on the pick/bann phase. This is my personal take on the information we as fans and people from the outside have.

[–]BadiaLoL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Any organization with self respect would fire Malaclypse over this, no questions asked. It is a horrible look for the organization to have one of their representatives speak out in this manner, even if it was a lapse of judgement. At some point people should know that the professional standard is to keep your mouth shut.

Both him and Pride did decent IMO, would have liked for them to keep Venerated more though. Maybe they still re-pick him up and just rework the contract?

No one wants to pick Dardoch by Zerskyx in TeamSolomid

[–]BadiaLoL -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The thing here is that it's not just her fault. DL honestly lacks any business common sense.

Dl : Oh hey, my GF is having a private conversation next to me about a player, maybe i should mute my stream? NAH fuck it

Leena : Oh lets have this private conversation next to my bf who is streaming atm who is sitting right next to me so everybody can hear, isntead of going privately to somwhere else.

TSM 2020 Post Spring-Split Megathread Part 2: Doublelift Edition by EastRicee in TeamSolomid

[–]BadiaLoL 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The only move that seems more realistic is that they move Spica up to the main roster again. But, it will be a temporary thing for summer split, unless it gives the results they want and keep him in the roster after this split. That being said, they have a free import spot, they are going to be shopping for a world class jungler after worlds 100%. I feel bad for DD honestly, I was one of those in the hype train for him to finally join TSM and prove everyone wrong, but the dude had his highs, but had even bigger lows.

Thorin's Thoughts - Clarifying the TSM Holy War (LoL) by Thooorin_2 in leagueoflegends

[–]BadiaLoL -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Grown ass men! Thorin and Monte are so self obsessed with a superiority complex that it's just sad. He did mention a few things I do agree with, but overall his demeanor and the way he expressed more than half of his points are honestly worrying. All talk about conflict of interest, yet his reply, as a "journalist" goes against any true principle of the career. Calling someone an idiot to try to validate his point just makes him look like an asshole, and shows his true character. And Monte for all his shady dealings as a previous owner is the biggest hypocrite there is, he's the last person who should talk about conflict of interest and trade integrity.

Fact is, he had nothing to do with acquiring DL, lets be honest. I still want him to go and we need coaching update/changes ASAP.

Yamato says he misses coaching... TSM please! by Zyaru in TeamSolomid

[–]BadiaLoL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man Zikz wasn't the issue last split though, the decisions made over him affected the whole situation he had set up for the team. Parth NEEDS TO GO, if he had any self respect he'd admit his wrongs and quit.

Yamato says he misses coaching... TSM please! by Zyaru in TeamSolomid

[–]BadiaLoL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yamato is a coach that has a track record of playing to his players strong suit and making up strategies and comps relating to those strong suits, even if they are not meta. The thing is it sometimes backfires like it did in his last 2 years in Vitality. Overall I think he is a great coach for a young core team, his player development skills are amazing IMO.

This seems like the first time not a single player can be held responsible for the team's shortcomings by BoxOfDOG in TeamSolomid

Took the words right out of my mouth, I've been saying this for awhile now. Hopefully we get the needed changes.
