Andy "Smoothie" Ta, former Support of Cloud9 and TSM and currently teamless, is the star of the 368th Episode of 'Reflections'. This episode is part two of two about Smoothie's career.
Smoothie's career got its start playing in NA Challenger Series with Team Dragon Knights. From there he would briefly join Team Liquid before making his way over to Cloud9, where he began to build his name.
Known as a strong botlane with Sneaky Smoothie became famous for roaming and shot-calling his team to elite status. They would play in back-to-back LCS finals with him, losing both to TSM, and attend both S6 and S7 Worlds. In both Worlds appearances the team escaped a tricky group draw to make the quarter-finals.
Moving to Echo Fox, Smoothie saw less success and it would be a move to TSM that saw him back at the championship level. Partnered with Zven he reached the S9 LCS Spring final only to be reverse-swept by Team Liquid and denied the title. TSM fell apart over the summer and a transfer to CLG saw Smoothie's results fail to rise to the top level again. He has played in Challenger/Academy the last few years and is currently teamless and undecided about his future.
In part two, Smoothie talks about his time in TSM, playing with Zven, the differences between Bjergsen and Jensen, tough times in CLG, what it was like in the Challenger scene and his regrets over not branding himself more strongly earlier in his career.
This interview was recorded on the 24th of February, 2024.
