New Roster’s First Title: TSM Wins Skin.Club Summer Cup 2024

After a complete overhaul, the TSM team defeated the world No. 32 ranked Sashi in the finals of the Skin.Club Summer Cup 2024, lifting the trophy and taking home a prize purse of $12,864.

Altekz was named the tournament MVP, with a tournament rating of 1.27 and an IMPACT rating of 1.25.

The North American organization underwent significant changes to its roster during the summer break, abandoning their unsuccessful European squad, recruiting acoR, Altekz, and niko, returning to a full Danish lineup.

This change in lineup has already proven fruitful as they claimed victory in the online event, the Skin.Club Summer Cup. This is the first online tournament title for the club since winning the ESEA Fall Cash Cup 3 in October 2023. This newly formed team looks more promising than TSM’s previous lineup, as their players have stepped up in critical moments, leading the team to victory.

In the GSL group stage, TSM suffered a 1-2 loss against Fluffy Gangsters but secured two consecutive wins over Passion UA, advancing to the playoffs. They then overcame Johnny Speeds led by William Sundin | draken (a team on the rise after Jonas Olofsson | Lekr0’s departure).

The finals featured a Danish derby between TSM and Sashi. The strength of the TSM players was fully displayed throughout the final as different players topped the team stats on each map.

Altekz achieved a 1.27 rating across seven maps, earning him the MVP of the tournament, closely followed by valde with a 1.23 rating.
