Rumors have gone a flow that someone will be leaving TSM for Dyrus to join after the leak of the follow Skype Message. Turns out TheOddOne has confirmed it and we should expect an official announcement soon.

What are peoples thoughts on this? Personally as a TSM fan I feel that TRM is the better player and looking back at the games I did see TSM play the lane that was losing the worse wasn't his at Hanover. Dyrus may have a larger champion pool yet I haven't really seen him be tested properly at top as he is always either swapping with Westrice as AD range carry or top so.. should be interesting to say the least.

Official announcement below.

Quoted:
Team SoloMid is one of the oldest North American team in League of Legend's competitive scene and has kept a consistent roster for nearly a year now. During this time, every member of TSM have become great friends and formed a bond that persists even outside of the game.

Only a few months ago, Team SoloMid formed the first League of Legends gaming house in North America as a brilliant step towards refining their play. However, with this large step, problems arose in regards to the path necessary for TSM to become the best team. Such problems have caused strife out of the game and its effects have crippled teamwork and ultimately is detrimental to our performance as a team. With this, TheRainMan has decided to step off the main team and former Epik Gamer's Dyrus will be in his stead. This decision was made in full acceptance of all members and RainMan will continue to stream for SoloMid and stay in the gaming house.

Team SoloMid has become more than just a team for its members and though people come and go, they still remain friends. While RainMommy will no longer play with the team, his loud outbreaks will continue to be heard during scrims and he will continue to be a friend of each member.

Quote
"Marcus 'Dyrus' Hill : I didn't want it to end up like this but this is a chance I can't pass by. I will be leaving Epik gamer to join Team Solomid in their journey on the path of baylife."


Quote
"Christian 'TheRainMan' Kahmann: I didn't feel that I clicked well with the team and I did not want to hold the team down. In the end, we are all still friends and we will remain that way."


Quote
"Shan 'Chaox' Huang: Rainman didn't mesh well with the team, we were too asian for him."


Quote
"Alex 'Xpecial' Chu: TheRainMan is an excellent player and a great friend, but the differences in philosophy between him and the rest of the team has led up to this point.
Even if we are no longer teammates, I wish him the best of luck in both LoL and in life."

Dyrus' situation made him the ideal candidate and I wholeheartedly welcome him on the team. I wish for everyone's continued support for Dyrus and TSM.


Quote
"Brian 'TheOddOne' Wyllie: we are really sad to see him go, we wish him luck in the future. However we're really excited to have dyrus on the team as we feel he'll be a worthy replacement."

I'm glad. Dyrus is amazing and TSM definitely get to play a lot, I'm glad I'll be seeing more of him. Shame about EG, I LOVED watching Salce's Vlad play, but they sure got trolled when he implied they weren't a "serious team".


I hope we'll be seeing a lot more Singed!


ALSO -
This post will indeed be made before Winter posts an excited post where he declares his undying love for this decision and proceeds to **** in his pants.

Not sure who's the better player but Dyrus sure is an awesome guy. Winter certainly will be happy.

BAYLIFE.

So, where is TRM going then?
He is rather the serious player.
No wonder TRM seemed strange on stream today ._.

EDIT: Nvm, I realized Dyrus plays a lot of a damn good Vladimir, excited to see him.

This is a huge upgrade for TSM if it really happens. Dyrus fits their team better than TRM anyway, and EG isn't good enough for him.

EG isn't good enough for him? Didn't realize we were talking about Westrice. :-p

As a fellow TSM fanboy I'm feeling pretty unsure about this move. I feel Dyrus will be somewhat rusty in that he has been playing AD range carry on most occasions in competitive play and I haven't seen Dyrus cope against any top lane of a high level team at a offline or online LAN event.
