Without many good League of Legends games on Day 3 of the LCS 2022 Spring Split, Cloud9 and TSM face off as rivals to finish out Week 1. C9 started the week great with two solid wins over Flyquest and Golden Guardians. While both of those teams are winless as of now, C9 displayed their dominance despite massive roster changes.
TSM took a beating from 100T with their new roster featuring several new players from other regions. They snuffed out Flyquest in a long, brutal match, but this League of Legends team is definitely not what they used to be in years past. It could take weeks before they find their perfect synergy.
Cloud9 will keep things rolling with their veteran players, Fudge, Zven, and Blaber. Moving Fudge out of top and into the mid lane has worked out perfectly so far, and he will square up against Takeover for TSM in today's match.
TSM needs to bounce back as the underdog in this situation. A loss here could set the pace for a rough Split ahead of the League of Legends 2022 season. They have a lot of fresh talent, but they need to learn how to fully cooperate as a team to overcome the big dogs in the LCS.
C9 is favored pretty heavily in this League of Legends match since they started 2-0 with powerful performances. TSM couldn't do anything against 100T and barely beat out FLY on Day 1. C9, with many of their returning players, have found what works for them and know how to execute, leaving TSM an uphill battle on Day 3.
It could be a closer match than some expect since TSM might run out of the gates with some passion after the shaky start. However, expect C9 to grab their third victory of the League of Legends 2022 season and keep their perfect record.
