Aspiring NA LCS players, start preparing your applications—TSM is looking for players to attend its first in-house Scouting Grounds tournament.
One of North America’s premier League of Legends teams, TSM will be inviting two players for each in-game role to participate in the organization’s Scouting Grounds, which is set to be held in Los Angeles.
Anyone who wants to participate in TSM’s Scouting Grounds will have needed to finish the recently-concluded competitive season in at least Diamond tier in solo queue. TSM’s Scouting Grounds won’t be restricted to North American residents, though—players from any region can apply.
