They would if they spent their tournament winnings on champs instead of skins
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

Entirely understandable if you consider that the actual pool of heroes that are viable for competitive play is relatively small to the total pool of heroes. There's no need for the pros to own every single one, especially since it takes money and a lot of time to buy them.

Also TSM are on their European accounts which they only created this year. On their main accounts they all own almost all of the champs.

They recently moved over to EU West, so they don't have all the champs there.

I seem to remember Wick'd a while ago(when SK had him..) saying he didn't have some champions mostly because he'd never play them and he'd never needed to do so. I'd agree with exception of tournaments you really only need so many. *shrug* It would make switching champions after picks hilariously awkward if you didn't happen to own the champion they wanted..

Massive shroom gardens. Enough said.

"Random" AP ratios help when you consider stuff like Baron buff, WotA, Taric ult and so on. In some cases, a hybrid item might be a viable choice. Maybe you want the Gunblade nuke/slow on a champion but because you only have scaling of one type it's not efficient enough. There's just more options if you have more than just one type of scaling.

And they are fun. That's the important part.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

Then tell the other team what you're picking and pick Eve as a stand-in, it's what TSM does all the time lol.

What's the general consesus on spell vamp quints for manaless casters like Vlad/Rumble/Kennen? Because I see some pro's using them and some using just flap ap quints, is it just personal preference?

It depends on the matchup and how you want to play it out and whether more burst or more sustain is more important.

I'd have both pages and pick as needed

well in terms of gold efficiency the quints themselves are n ot very impressive
however, in terms of a stat, spellvamp and lifesteal are more useful if you are allowed to consistently hit creeps with the relevant attack / spells and can consistently make use of the healing. in other words, in lanes where you would be dominating either way it would be pretty inefficient as you would not be able to make full use of the healing nor would you desire it over additional damage. likewise, in lanes where you lose hard, you would not want it either imo because you would not be able to hit creeps or the enemy champion in any meaningful way without being punished such that the relative inefficiency of the quints would be greater than the additional damage or mitigation that flat MR / armor or AP / AD would give you

i think kennen probably has the nicest time with them as he is able to apply the spellvamp as he desires on a relatively low CD to creeps or the enemy champion (as it has great range and low CD for his Q at least) and he is generally able to dictate the pace of a lane because his counterharass and stun prevents an enemy from going on him early levels without eating a devestating amount of creep aggro. the nature of the quints themselves would make it such that you prefer a drawn out laning phase with small harass that builds up (and allows you to utilize your quints so that you slowly but surely outsustain your opponent). i think that they are niche enough that they are certainly not a must-buy on any champion at the moment, but for connoisseurs of the champions that may use them, they might be a curious option

Or just allow to switch place when it's your turn to pick.
Even easier...

But they don't want to reveal a pick that could be countered if its earlier in the picks...

They should just do what DotA does, let the captain make all the picks based on your combined hero pool (which they can obviously see because that's how they let you do bans) and then have each person pick which hero they're playing.

Sure would be scary when you got a troll captain.

That'd probably be more effiicent, though should exclusively be a tournament thing.
