TSM's Official 2019 NA LCS Rosters and Staff

We’re pleased to announce that all our players and staff for the upcoming 2019 NA LCS season have now been finalized! The key goal of this off-season for TSM was to create a solid foundation upon which we could iterate and build upon in the long term. We were very excited to bring on board Tony and Peter, with whom we worked closely to build these new rosters and gather our support staff. Without further ado -





LCS Roster:

Top Lane: Sergen "BrokenBlade" Çelik

Jungle: Jonathan "Grig" Armao

Mid Lane: Søren "Bjergsen" Bjerg

AD Carry: Jesper "Zven" Svenningsen

Support: Andy "Smoothie" Ta





For our LCS Roster, we’ve previously announced the young BrokenBlade and veteran support Smoothie . They will be joining our returning members Grig, Bjergsen, and Zven in the upcoming season.





Academy Roster:

Top Lane: Brandon "Brandini" Chen

Jungle: Matthew "Akaadian" Higginbotham

Mid Lane: Nicholas "Ablazeolive" Antonio Abbott

AD Carry: Edward "Tactical" Ra

Support: Erik "Treatz" Wessén





For our Academy roster, Brandini will be returning to our team along with Ablazeolive from our Spring 2018 roster and they will be joined by Akaadian (formerly of Team Optic), Tactical, and Treatz. Tactical is fresh out of the challenger scene, being named one of the “Top Prospects” at the 2018 NA Scouting Grounds, while Treatz’s skill and leadership impressed our staff at our TSM Scouting Grounds.





Support Staff:

Head Coach: Tony "Zikz" Gray

Assistant Coach: Jangsik "Lustboy" Ham

Assistant Coach: Zachary Goldman

Academy Coach: Peter Zhang

Head Analyst: Sevag Titizian





In addition to Zikz and Peter, we're happy to report that Lustboy and Sevag Titizian will be returning, and we would like to welcome Zachary Goldman, our new assistant coach. All three of them will have various roles supporting both rosters.





We’re extremely excited to work with all these highly talented individuals over the next year and hope that our fans will join us in cheering them on in the coming season!
