The movements in the different esports organizations in the world are the order of the day because after finishing the first stages of the season, some of them have not been completely satisfied with the results obtained and have begun to make changes.

The popular North American organization, TSM, has decided to make a change in the middle of the season because they had no choice but to do so after a weak start. As a result, Academy player Jason “WildTurtle” Tran has been promoted to the team’s main lineup.

This marks the 28-year-old Canadian’s return to the LCS after surprisingly playing a full year in TSM’s academy.

WildTurtle returns to LCS with TSM

One of the most experienced and well-known players in the North American League of Legends scene, Jason “WildTurtle” Tran, has returned home to TSM. After spending six years away from the organization, including a year in the academy, WildTurtle returns to the top competitive level of the North American League of Legends, the LCS.

WildTurtle was promoted to the main lineup in place of Toàn “Neo” Trần, who himself was sent to the TSM academy.

The 28-year-old Canadian is a veteran of the North American scene known to the vast majority of LCS fans. The Canadian has already played for TSM in the past. He first played there between 2013-2015, won the LCS three times, and went to Worlds the same amount of times. He returned to the organization in the spring 2017 and won the North American League Championship again.

Now, he returns with more encouragement and confidence possible to help his team of a thousand loves to be at the top of the North American League of Legends.

WildTurtle and his debut with TSM

Although the experienced player was in the academy throughout the previous season, in his debut with TSM against Evil Geniuses, it seemed like he had been playing with the boys all his life. We could see excellent communication, harmony, and, above all, team play on the server.

WildTurtle selected Zeri as their champion for this match. This champion has been a common choice by all AD Carries in all leagues worldwide. While the veteran’s final stats were not the best, we can highlight that he had to measure himself against one of the best AD Carry in the LCS.

At the beginning of the game, TSM tried by different means to take advantage of Evil Geniuses. However, their attempts were not good enough to take the victory, and, at the end of the game, the guys from EG found a spectacular choice in Bugi, which changed the course of the match.

Undoubtedly, it was a back-and-forth series at Summoner’s Rift. However, TSM couldn’t do much more to take the win, and right now, they have to prepare in a big way for their next challenge, Team Liquid.

WildTurtle finished the match with three kills, four assists, and three kills. Although they do not compare to the performance of his teammates, there is no doubt that we saw an excellent version of the player trying to join the team as quickly as possible.
