TSM’s Hauntzer Steps up to Lead the Team to Victory
TSM has always had high expectations placed upon them. However, after losing a set against Cloud9, the team found themselves in trouble against Immortals. It was at this critical moment that their top laner, Hauntzer, stepped up and led the team to victory.
Hauntzer is often overlooked due to his ability to adapt his play style and champion pool to support his team. But in the deciding game against Immortals, he shone brightly.
Hauntzer’s Dominance in the LCS Summer 2016
Hauntzer played a pivotal role in TSM’s success in the LCS Summer 2016. According to Oracle’s Elixir, he had the highest creep score (CS) differential at 10 minutes in the entire league. This achievement is even more impressive considering the wide variety of champions he played, from Irelia to Shen to Gnar.
Hauntzer’s ability to build leads and manage pressure allowed him to create opportunities for his team while not sacrificing farm. These advantages are often overlooked because the focus is usually on other TSM stars getting kills in teamfights. But this is the perfect role for Hauntzer.
Hauntzer’s Struggles in the Current Season
In the current season, Hauntzer has not achieved the same level of success in the top lane. He is currently averaging a CS deficit at 10 minutes, which is causing issues for the team as they try to regain their identity from a few months ago.
Hauntzer’s Turnaround in the Game Against Immortals
In the decisive Game 3 against Immortals, Hauntzer made a significant impact. TSM first-picked Maokai for Hauntzer, which was a smart choice considering the champion’s strength with the Courage of Colossus mastery. Hauntzer’s dominance in the top lane allowed him to create opportunities for the team.
Hauntzer’s ability to bully his opponent, Flame, and make effective roams with his jungler, Svenskeren, set the stage for TSM’s victory. His strategic positioning and decision-making played a crucial role in the team’s success.
TSM Relies on Hauntzer’s Performance
As TSM’s duo lane struggles in the early game, the team is relying more on Hauntzer to make an early impact in every game. The presence of strong top lane talent in the league further emphasizes the importance of Hauntzer’s performance.
Hauntzer may not be the most talented top laner, but he is exactly the player that TSM needs. His ability to adapt, create advantages, and lead the team to victory makes him an invaluable asset.
