TSM Monthly Recap

Here's news about TSM for this month along with our performances all at your convenience.





League of Legends



Earlier this month, the team went to a Korean Bootcamp to prepare for Worlds 2017. You can see them recap their experience here. This is their training put into play:







Though we’ve seen all the hard work the team put into preparing for the big day, we all know of our unfortunate run as we failed to get out of groups in Worlds this year against Misfits, Flash Wolves, and Team WE. We ranked 3rd with three wins and four losses.







Soon after, Andy “Reginald” Dinh was interviewed by Travis Gafford about our results during the second week of Worlds 2017, which can be seen here.





Smash 4 and Melee





ZeRo and Leffen attended Game Tyrant Expo 2017 earlier this month. In this competition, ZeRo came in 3rd place while Leffen took 13th. The two go on to “smash” through their opponents at The Big House 7 (TBH7) with ZeRo in 4th place and Leffen in 3rd. Also in TBH7, ZeRo teamed up with Nairo to take home the trophy as they win Smash 4 doubles. ZeRo shared his glorious victory on Twitter.



We follow ZeRo with his continued success as he took home the DreamHack Denver 2017 trophy for Smash 4. Surpassing MSF Larry Lurr and MVG Salem, TSM ZeRo claimed 1st place in this competition.





More recently, ZeRo made an appearance in Houston, Texas for Clutch City Clash 2. As expected, ZeRo came out 1st in singles. Along with his partner Trela in 2v2, they both made it to 2nd place.





Likewise, Leffen also participated in a recent competition — Canada Cup 2017. Leffen faced Mew2King in an intense singles match — which can be seen here — but only nearly made 2nd. However, Leffen teamed with Mew2King in doubles to take 1st place.





Hearthstone





In Hearthstone Quebec (HSQC) this year, TSM Cydonia joined Raggok as a caster for its fourth week of featured matches with Alro v. Jiany and Luker v. Gaia.









Cydonia also competed at DreamHack Denver 2017 ranking at 17th place. Despite not being as active for the first part of this month, TSM Kripp continued to stream on Twitch. In fact, during one of his streams, he did an interview with Kaotic Radio — which can be seen here. The interview begins around 01:02:55.





Vainglory



We'll move onto how our Vainglory team has been doing. Here are the Vainglory 8 Point Standings.









In addition to that, this month has been quite a successful month for our Vainglory team. If you did not already know, in the latter part of this month, we joined C9 and Rogue at Mobile Masters in Las Vegas. What’s more is that the team “cleaned up house” at the invitational. Not only did we win seven games in a row, we also took home the title of “Champion of Champions”. In the Finals of Vainglory 8 NA Autumn Week 1 Split 2, we faced off against Hollywood Hammers in a close game, but in the end we came out victorious.



As for what the players have been doing outside of winning competitions, our very own Vainglory Captain, FlashX, met up with Broken Myth for an interview about his Vainglory career and his future plans.





PUBG





It was announced on October 4th that we have been invited to the Intel Extreme Masters Oakland’s PUBG Invitational, which will be occurring next month. Hopefully, we’ll be able to see some great gameplay with our roster of BreaK, Viss, SmaK, and aimPR. We expect great things from our team, especially considering our placement in 5th at the Auzom Premier League.
