TSM are North American League of Legends champions for a record fourth time in four years, taking down Cloud9 three games to one in Toronto Sunday. After the victory, the whole team and coaches Parth and Weldon stuck around for a 30-minute press conference. You can watch the whole thing here.

Of note, Doublelift said he hopes Immortals loses in the Gauntlet, because, as he put it, Immortals refused to scrim TSM in the hopes that Cloud9 would win in the finals, sending CLG to the Gauntlet instead.
Immortals CEO Noah Winston offered a ... different perspective on Twitter.
@NaserAlNaqi @LoyotatheDragon @TimSevenhuysen @Ryantang20 We scrimmed them Thursday..?

The Gauntlet starts next week, starting with Team Envy vs. Team Liquid and also including Cloud9 and Immortals. The winner will secure North America’s third and final spot at Worlds.
Also of note: Weldon talking about the team’s mental growth, Bjergsen talking about the team’s absurd practice schedule and plenty of discussion on the current and future metas at a variety of positions. Enjoy!
