]]>The Turkish Championship League (TCL) 2020 Winter Season playoffs are set to begin this Monday when Papara SuperMassive and Team AURORA meet in the quarter-finals.
Papara SuperMassive had quite a successful journey through the TCL Winter Season, finishing with an impressive 10-6 record and 63% win rate. The end of the split was less than satisfactory, however, as Berkay “Ueitnot” A??kuzun and company missed a direct bye to the semi-finals after losing all three of their fixtures in the final two weeks.
Before that form slump, SuperMassive replaced Mustafa Kemal “Dumbledoge” G?kselo?lu with ex-Royal Youth player Bahad?r “Japone” ?olak in the support role. While that seemed like a solid roster change at the time, the team’s results since Japone signed on suggest something has gone amiss.

Team AURORA secured a playoffs berth by the skin of their teeth, defeating Be?ikta? Esports in the sixth-place tiebreaker. Although the match looked close in the early stages, AURORA’s superior macro play, dragon control and stronger synergy allowed them to run away with the lead and close out the game in 34 minutes.
Brayan “Kruimel” van Oosten and co. produced a mixed bag of results in the last two weeks of the split. While they lost to Dark Passage and Galakticos, they picked up wins against Be?ikta? and 5 Ronin. That inconsistent form might be down to the recent acquisition of ex-Dark Passage carry Murat “Black” Ulukan Ayaz, who has needed some time to integrate.
Black will also be the main win condition for AURORA heading into the quarter-finals, as he is one of the best ADC players in the league. Statistically, he is an even more dangerous player than SuperMassive’s Berkay “Zeitnot” A??kuzun, so Papara cannot afford to let Black his own game or pick up his go-to champion, Aphelios.
Papara SuperMassive and AURORA claimed a win apiece in their two meetings in the 2020 TCL Winter Season, which suggests these two sides match up nicely. Although SuperMassive won their most recent clash in mid-March, the fixture was played when Black was still coming to terms with his new surroundings.
Papara SuperMassive are rightfully priced as the favourites, but it’s difficult to understand why Team AURORA are priced so high. While we don’t expect AURORA to move any mountains here, it’s equally difficult to believe SuperMassive will come away with a clean sweep here. Ueitnot and co. severely underperformed in the last two weeks of the split, which does not inspire much optimism.
AURORA’s bottom-lane advantage will play a crucial role in this match. While we don’t expect Black will singlehandedly win his team the series, he should help AURORA win at least one map.

]]>Only one of Team AURORA and Galakticos will still be in the hunt for the Turkish Championship League (TCL) 2020 Winter Split playoffs after their decisive clash on Tuesday.
Ever since AURORA entered the TCL in 2015, their biggest ambition has been to win the league title. After numerous attempts, however, the team’s best placement is a top-four finish, which they have achieved five times to date.
Even though AURORA made a very strong semi-finals run in TCL Summer 2019, they opted for another roster swap in the off-season. In came jungler Taha “Elramir” Yurdagüven, mid laner Brayan “Kruimel” van Oosten, and the bottom-lane tandem of Yücel “Rhioni” Morgil and Ersin “Algos” Sertba?, who were replaced by ADC Murat “Black” Ulukan Ayaz and support Ozan “Sparz” Samican ?zbay in March.

With a new-look roster, AURORA have produced a somewhat underwhelming run with only occasional flashes of greatness. Their win over 5 Ronin earlier in the week sees AURORA enter their final fixture with a 7-8 record, which puts them in a tie for fifth place with Galakticos.
On a more positive note, AURORA gained a lot of quality with the arrival of Black. The Dark Passage ADC has proven to be one of the best marksmen in the league with a 4.67 KDA, 70.8% KPAR and 9.11 CSPM. Sparz is another player that deserves a mention, as he has built a strong synergy with Black in a short space of time.
Galakticos have enjoyed more or less the same level of success as AURORA in their journey throughout TCL 2020 Winter, as both teams hold a 7-8 record. But Galakticos have something AURORA don’t – a head-to-head victory from Week 5, which means they will enjoy a psychological advantage here.
Galakticos did not make any roster changes in the off-season despite finishing ninth in both splits last year. While the decision to keep the squad intact might have helped the team’s synergy, it has done little to improve their overall quality.
Neither side have impressed in the regular season. Perhaps AURORA have shown slightly more, but their loss to Galakticos earlier in the split suggests esports bookmakers are right to have the two sides at level pegging in the match betting.
This contest will most likely be decided in the bottom lane, where AURORA look to be the strongest. Their decision to bring in Black from Dark Passage was a solid move, as he is without a doubt an upgrade from Rhioni, and the new support Sparz also looks like an excellent addition.
It remains to be seen how the Dark-Sparz combination will match up with the Galakticos bottom-lane tandem of Adam “Emtest” Emtestam and Jakub “Tarky” Vaňkát, but Elramir’s tendency to rotate bots quite frequently suggests AURORA will get on top in the bottom part of the map. Dragon control is crucial in the current meta, leading us to believe AURORA will claim the spoils and sneak into the playoffs.
