Ruby to be TSM’s new midlaner

While it is true that there have been some rumors lately that TSM is in financial trouble and may be leaving the esports scene, it seems that their plans to improve their squads continue. In the last few hours, a report has revealed that Lee “Ruby” Sol-min, the Mid Laner of LEC’s Team Heretics, has reportedly agreed with TSM for the Summer Split.

There is no doubt that this news comes as a ringing endorsement for fans of the organization and the LCS itself. This only ratifies that the team has plans to continue in the scene and might have gotten out of the financial problems they were suffering.

In addition, he would be a great addition to the team, as Ruby has shown a great level in both the Winter and Spring Split played in the LEC.

Reports claim that Ruby has a deal with TSM

According to a report published by Alejandro Gomis on the Blix.gg blog, TSM has a verbal agreement with Ruby for the LCS Summer Split 2023.

As we know, Gomis is always at the forefront regarding both League of Legends and VALORANT news. Furthermore, his reports are always from reliable sources and usually come true.

While it is true that Ruby has shown a good level so far this season, this was not enough to help Team Heretics in the LEC. In the Winter Split, they managed to qualify for the Group Stage but fell in both matches to sign an extremely quick elimination. Finally, the team could not even qualify for the Group Stage in the Spring Split, as they finished in ninth place with a 3-6 record.

TSM does not escape Heretics’ reality

While TSM’s results have not been as disappointing as Team Heretics’, they have failed to show their best possible level in the LCS Spring Split. As a result, the team was left out of the playoffs after having a record of 8-10, being the second time in its history that they did not advance to the final phase of a Split.

After these results, TSM began to make changes to its roster, and one of the departures was the team’s midlaner, Huang “Maple” Yi-tang, as well as Glen Yang and Kristine Huang, members of the team’s staff.

If this signing is confirmed, Ruby will join a lineup of players with experience in the LEC and LCS. In addition, it will also be the fourth region he has played in, as he has also previously played in the LPL, LEC, and PCS. Finally, Ruby will show his level with TSM on June 1, 2023, when the LCS Summer Split 2023 kicks off.
