TSM change players during LCS
TSM (aka Team SoloMid) is one of the oldest esports organizations from America. Just yesterday it became known that they will remove Shenyi , their active support player in the League of Legends roster, to the academic team. And all this right during the LCS Spring 2022, where the player performed.
This was reported by TSM themselves on their Twitter. The organization explained this by saying that their new teammate needs more time to get used to the country and the new environment. And the comfort of their players is a key value for them. The team's audience reacted extremely mixed to such an announcement.
Wei " Shenyi " Zi-Jie is a newcomer from TSM who was signed over two months ago but arrived in North America just recently for the upcoming event. Previously, he played for FPX's FunPlus Blaze academy team for a year and was a stand-in for the Phoenix main team for 4 months.
However, in the first two weeks of the spring split, the team lost all four of their matches. I think that partly this was the reason for his "temporary suspension".
For now, he will head to TSM Academy 's academy team, where the organization says it will be easier for him to adapt by training and playing at a more relaxed and comfortable pace.
TSM has not yet revealed all the cards, whether we will see Shenyi in the third week or not. But judging purely by one of their announcements, already in the next match we will see instead of him Yursan, who played with the LCS 2022 Lock-In team.
