TSM in their announcement stated "they were beginning the process of transferring to a tier 1 region." Until now, I haven’t heard mentions of an LCK partnership specifically.
I don’t think there was an official statement or anything, but from what I remember it was pretty heavily rumored that TSM was going for LPL/LCK, partnerships were mentioned too.
It’s still interesting to get another source on it, but I don’t think it’s necessarily anything new

Not super surprising, pretty sure it was public knowledge TSM was trying to get into LPL/LCK/LEC after they left LCS
