+Austin von Bargen i agree, a lot of people see him as a bad guy in the community and some people from way back with the whole struggle with him and dyrus back in what season 2 or 3? (cant remember) but Regi has worked hard and he continues to shock everyone
Love him or hate him; Reginald is a legend of the League of Legends world and its biggest success story. He went from being just another player to building an empire from nothing. His legacy continues in his brand of TSM; both the team and company. They are the most popular team in NA and have consistently performed when it mattered. He, almost single-handedly, got the snowball rolling to this point; he carried. People like Bjergson and Dyrus kept his snowball rolling, but he made the snowball in the first place.
Are they though? Did you take a poll? The scenes in Korea and China are FAR bigger than in the western world. I'd imagine that a Korean team (Like SKT, for example) would have far more popularity. Even lesser known teams (in western cultures) like Rox Tigers and KT and CJ and such would actually be more popular in terms of numbers of fans, simply because of the sheer number of fans that the western world has in comparison to us. You could be right, but I seriously doubt it.
TSM is the first ever professional competitive team to be created for League of Legends. They have fans not only in NA but across all of Europe and Asia as well. Before the KR server was even released for League of Legends, TSM already existed and were the team that everyone across the world looked at and admired. Back then Korean players played on other servers because they didn't have a server to play on them self. Yes we're in 2016, so Korea and China are FAR more popular than they were before, in fact stronger regions as well. But TSM is still way up there when it comes down to popularity, despite the fact of how popular the game is outside of North America.
You mean created solely for League of Legends? Like, not already an established company? That is correct (as far as I know anyway) but also 100% irrelevant to whether or not they're "the most popular League of Legends name on the globe." which was the point you made and what I'm saying is actually wrong. Even though it was just an irrelevant detail to my original comment. Basically you're like "I agree with you, but I think it's even bigger than that!" but then unfortunately you're probably wrong. If you do the research and the maths and the definition of "popularity" then good for you; you may be right, but I don't care enough to look it up, nor continue this conversation, because right now we're both just making assumptions based on logic and somewhere along the lines one of us has misunderstood something or made a mistake and we've come to different 'facts'. I don't think it really matters anymore. GL on the rift, dude.
I really hope that was meant as a joke and you weren't trying to sound clever or talk down to me. "Don't assume things you know nothing about." The very next sentence you assume things you know nothing about...
+Richard H Considering you have no backstage info except for tsm legends. How could you know? Looking at this all the other owners thought he was nice and good. And he is one of the smartest owners
It's unbelievable what Regi has built up the recent years. He handled everything, from sponsors to coaching (especially S2 & early S3), all on his own. Cant thanks Regi enough for creating TSM and giving us a team to cheer for!
+Zectorr™ why would you hate another challenger if you were? challengers don't always get along with each other but they would never flame each other on RUclips
I've always looked up to regi...everything he's done for esports in NA and establishing himself and his company ...I've met him a couple times and he's such a nice dude ...say what you will but he started with the minimum and is doing big things ...
Andy is an incredibly driven, motivated. He took a big risk that many would have told him not to do. He started with nothing and took his business to the top. Really inspiring, and motivating to see him work. Would love to be able to network with this guy.
Say what you want but Regi is really the face of the NA LCS. He's done so much for the competitiveness of the region as a whole, and has really helped esports as a whole gain recognition
Everyone laughs at regi for being wukong which yeah is pretty funny but league wouldnt be what it is today if he never came onto the scene or founded tsm. theres a real legacy that has been built by him. otherwise people wouldnt be chanting tsm at a skt vs fnatic match
Probably the best and my most favorite LCSDRIVE episode ever, because Reginald have had such a huge impact on the scene and generally the League of legends community.
Wow, Regi slowly became one of my heros. He got his team (Now a thriving business) to where he it is because he wanted it. He was just a teenager when this all started, and he kept going because that's what he cared about more in the world. I love people who puts everything in their passion and makes it into something this globally loved. This dude is amazing.
I have a lot of respect for this guy. He soaks up the hate for TSM when things aren't going well, and when TSM wins it's the players that get all the credit. Meanwhile he's kept things together for a looong time, recruited some of the best players, and all of his teammates have only good things to say about him. Not to mention the fact his "brand" is the most recognizable and entertaining thing in LoL Esports, love or hate.
Riot Games thank you for doing this DRIVE story on Andy Dinh! It was great to watch and it was produced incredibly well! As a TSM fan, I have always enjoyed Andy's presence. He makes a super good entrepreneur and did help build an industry of e-sports gaming. Would be interested in watching a HotShotGG story as well because he comes from the same background as Andy. Creating his own e-sports team when he was originally a player as well. TSM TSM
+Moad Ben Reginald used to be known for his Twisted Fate play in a negative sense, that he would always pull a blue card instead the yellow to stun. Funny thing is that the rest of his play on that champion was actually really good, very agressive and set up TSM to win teamfights by going in hard and shifting the pace in teamfights / pressure around the map.
This guy is the figure we need to look up to as young people. instead of pointing out his flaws, just look at what he has achieved through his own passion. He is the Ronaldinho of eSports; he is a legend with a legacy.
I have to say, I used to hate Reginald (even though I'm actually a TSM fan). He just seemed more toxic and childish as a player while he was TSM's midlaner, than anything else. And a lot of the time if was always him causing the issues and rifts between the players because of this attitude. Ever since he retired and started to run TSM instead of also play (and of course gotten older and more mature), I've liked him a lot more. Regardless of if I like him or not though, got tremendous respect for a kid who took his dreams and goals, worked in his blood, sweat and tears and made it happen.
+Ctrl Alt Dfeat he still is childish. saw that one episode of tsm when they went out to eat for teambuilding. they went for sushi Dyrus told he really hated the sushi and it makes him nauseus, but then regi told 4 of the members voted for sushi so they are getting sushi, no matter what dyrus wants. so regi told Dyrus he HAD to come with the rest of the team. so Dyrus was there just watching other people eat while he got nothing at all. then afterwards dyrus had to go eat somewhere else on his own. i mean like what kind of a shit person is regi?
Also they have to do everything the way Regi wants, cause he doesn't listen to the players opinions. well he does but he discards them right away. and he's arrogant no matter what he achieve
+Ralf Thomas Tell me what defines ur ''league''? Just looks ? ofc success is going to be an important aspect since it says alot about person and also leena met reginald way before tsm became this succeful so stfu
+Ralf Thomas Funny you say that because she's been with him before he stepped in as a player. You can see in one of the videos around s1/2 where he goes and hugs her...think before you talk.
+Ralf Thomas It's really hard to tell if she truly like Regi or she's just with him because he has a lot of money. The same goes to the rich people with girls who are way out of the league...
Hard working guy, I am sure he will provide a great working environment for his teammates in the future.
banger
lololol
Say what you want about Reginald, but you cant deny that he is a great entrepreneur.
agreed
+Austin von Bargen That aint saying shit to me though, but hey.
+Austin von Bargen RS he made oddone quit school on his last year to become a league player
+Austin von Bargen murica, right?
+Austin von Bargen i agree, a lot of people see him as a bad guy in the community and some people from way back with the whole struggle with him and dyrus back in what season 2 or 3? (cant remember) but Regi has worked hard and he continues to shock everyone

NA? TSM is the most popular League of Legends name on the globe.

Reginald the highest win rate Tf without even using gold card!
+Xplendid It was his joke...
As much hate as he gets, he seems like he's improved as a person, and matured quite a bit.
He just knows how to behave infront of the camera.
+Richard H Ikr trolls just jump on the hate bandwagon even though he's a good person
+BaiToast Its almost as if teenagers actually matured, who could've guessed?!?!
+Richard H Considering you have no backstage info except for tsm legends. How could you know? Looking at this all the other owners thought he was nice and good. And he is one of the smartest owners
+BaiToast Yea, i can see in the comments how much hate he gets.
No hate at all
eyebrows still mia
LMAO
+Junsner but idiots still around...
+Junsner hair still haven't cut
+Junsner they are making money

Bob Gunnar Bob Gunnar 'Cause it's putting Regi in a good light.
It's unbelievable what Regi has built up the recent years. He handled everything, from sponsors to coaching (especially S2 & early S3), all on his own. Cant thanks Regi enough for creating TSM and giving us a team to cheer for!
+Slaymore Hue and hate on :(
If he manage to save this roster, he is a true legend.
+TheJumpingNex He managed to destroy TSM rosters again and again. He is a true legend.
+TheJumpingNex he does the opposite he destroys rosters
+TheJumpingNex You mean eyebrows.
And he ended up doing it.
Yep and now they're once again the best team in NA. 3 NA LCS championships in a row.
The "im gonna do my thing" song in 9:10 is epic after what he said xD
Man, I miss Lustboy..
+Cat He's there you know.. just can't see him
+iHalveien LOL
seeing the old S2 TSM roster makes me cry.
Bjergsen was probably the best pick-up for TSM.
Nah Sven is. For everyone else in the LCS.
+Shipe You sure about that lol....

Regi was the SOLE reason I got into TSM in the beginning. I've always been a fan
+Jordan Barton Same. There are alot of fake fans out there tho. They dont know shit about TSM.
RUclips recommended goes crazy
I've always looked up to regi...everything he's done for esports in NA and establishing himself and his company ...I've met him a couple times and he's such a nice dude ...say what you will but he started with the minimum and is doing big things ...
Looked up to Regi, nice lmao! Hope your family enjoys the abuse :)
this guy is a huge inspiration. Find something you love and have a passion for, and you will be successful.

yeah, alot of noobs disregard him,but he made history in NA
He bullies his players.
The best episode, as a long time but not so hardcore TSM fan anymore I really respect Regi. Because he built sort of a gaming empire.
Everyone laughs at regi for being wukong which yeah is pretty funny but league wouldnt be what it is today if he never came onto the scene or founded tsm. theres a real legacy that has been built by him. otherwise people wouldnt be chanting tsm at a skt vs fnatic match
Probably the best and my most favorite LCSDRIVE episode ever, because Reginald have had such a huge impact on the scene and generally the League of legends community.
"I'm a millionaire but I only have one nice shirt"

He also has a nice grill
Wow, Regi slowly became one of my heros. He got his team (Now a thriving business) to where he it is because he wanted it. He was just a teenager when this all started, and he kept going because that's what he cared about more in the world. I love people who puts everything in their passion and makes it into something this globally loved. This dude is amazing.
they made a new champion spotlight for wukong?
+Peter Vaino not nice man
Such a motivating person. I really liked this DRIVE episode. Keep it on.
HE is A beast!

This is an impressive story, despite what people think of wukong..... Reginald is a legend
This is truly amazing! Best Drive yet!
The man himself, the god of the blue card, Reginald!!!
+Moad Ben he doesn't use gold card and uses blue card when he plays tf

By far the best Drive to date. Well done!

This guy is the figure we need to look up to as young people. instead of pointing out his flaws, just look at what he has achieved through his own passion. He is the Ronaldinho of eSports; he is a legend with a legacy.
Regi is a god.
I really didnt believe that much in TSM but after I watched the video I think they can win this. Regi never fails to impress me.
Not arrogant and really good looking.. this guy just has it all huh?!?
Rip The Rain Man, brought back so many memories.
a lot of people hate on him but he did league a big favor and built TSM from the ground up.
One of the best LCS drive stories i really enjoyed it hoping for the best for TSM this split ope they pick up themselves #TSMWIN

I think Regi is a boss, supported him since he was playing in s1. Such a saviour!
I don't know why, but in my heart Regi will always be the best player ever in Team Solomid ever!
+Shine Terry haha bring out the blue card xD
Regi has always been one of my favorite people in League of Legends. Even when people were desperately trying to make him be hated on.
Bristow47 he's quite mean though
Say about Regi whatever you want, but his girlfriend is way out of his league and the fact that shes still with him just proves how successful he is
And proves she's an lcs digger
