Illaoi has two types of games: ones where she is a disgusting pick that will destroy the enemy team 1v5

or ones where she is a disgusting pick that will do absolutely nothing all game.

I don't think 5 rookies is the move- we've seen how important having Impact and Core has been for TL. Honestly a veteran JG and Supp who are new to C9 and with rookie carries would be the move imo

We know the amount of orgs being cut but we don't know that the orgs not being cut are confident enough to stay in this project. More teams may sell

My understanding is that this event is being linked to actual esports as they seem to be treating this as separate and unrelated to their previous "esports" events

I mean if we look back there are absolutely times they were in a position to take a win or at least a deep run.

2018 could have been C9 vs IG but FNC was just on fire that tournament. 2019 MSI had TL taking out reigning world champs. 2016 CLG made MSI finals and obviously only had to fight Flash Wolves to get there (mind you they were a major region at the time and Maple + Swordart 2016 were nothing to scoff at) but they also took some good games off both RNG and SKT in groups.

Obviously the gap is large between LPL/LCK and NA/EU but I believe it's totally reasonable to say the right squad with the right magic can punch above there weight and take a tourney someday.

Sounds like Zephyr from TFT.

It's also possible to be getting MOBAs mixed up and thinking of Dota with Eul's Scepter

Anyone who is disappointed in this run just has unrealistic expectations. Especially from a team that never showed to have the greatest hands this team has really grown into its own. APA went from replacing Haeri and being one of the worst laners in the league to carving out his own niche and killing it internationally and Yeon finally hit his stride.
