I really think the Korean philosophy of subs is going to be the future of League. I'm probably going to write an article about it and why it should be what every team does in a few years. With the amount of champions, positions, and differences between players in roles, having subs is going to be huge for teams. I see League becoming a lot more like basketball, with teams using situational bench players for certain teams and combos. With mid and top lane becoming more solo laners and 110+ champions and growing, it's impossible for a single player to be able to do and play everything at a pro level.

I agree with this. Most other competitive sports have matchup subs; why not League?

I mean, NA and Eu have "subs", but it really just means a player they use if another player is sick, busy doing something else, or is about to get kicked/benched and due to roster freezing, they have no other option. Back when the scene was basically weekend three day tournaments, scouting and preparing for a specific team really wasn't needed. You could take a guess who you might face, but it'd be stupid to focus your entire efforts on a single team when you don't know how the bracket will line up.

Now, in all five regions, teams know who they are facing every single week and have a week to two to prepare. The biggest reason Ozone are the Korean champions and Blaze isn't is because of how well Ozone were prepared for Blaze's strategies. You can't really blame Blaze for not changing anything, having won thirteen in a row and two of those games against the very same Ozone team. If they had changed strategies, champions, etc., and then would have lost, the backlash would have been monumental, demanding why a team who was so perfect decided to change things up.

With teams having so much time to prepare, teams are going to get broken down. With every team playing 30+ games a season, every team around the world is able to look at your strategies, favorite champions and have a good amount of time to try and find a counter. Throwing subs into the mix, it gives you 6+ new champions per sub that you can use, and depending on the player, it might give you a radically different team composition. You could have a very farm heavy, passive top laner who looks to dominate in the late game, or you could have an uber aggressive, tower diving top laner who wants to snowball early.

I could see it coming to a point where teams are even allowed to sub in players during BoX series, bringing the mind games and tactics to a whole new level, making every game of a series different and thought out before going in.

Just get subs to do research and other grunt work since they'll be scrimming with the team less often. It would save some money on a 2nd coach or analyst.

Me and my duo (both diamond 5) laned against a diamond 1 premade bot lane.

Holy noodles the skill differential, I thought I wasn't too bad at this game. We counterpicked Vayne/Janna as Cait/Taric and, well, my butt still hurts.

I think I'm simply proof that if you play enough, eventually you'll manage to scrape together 3 wins in enough promo series to make it to diamond.

Do you really think that huge organizations like EG or Curse, let alone a LOL-only powerhouse like Regi + TSM would let Riot get away with blatant trademark infringement for free?

clout (klout)

1. A blow, especially with the fist.

It makes sense that their logo is a fist!

It's allowed to work in Korea so much easier. They have the gaming house on lock. Not a care in the world that they have two sets of bunk beds in a small room. You watch a tour of a NA gaming house its a minor version of Cribs. Relocation expenses aren't nearly as big as they would be in NA. Greed and money we aren't sure if it's there will prevent this from happening in NA for a long time.

That was what I was thinking but I don't think the teams have any collective bargaining power and not being included because you wanted a higher cut is too risky.

Pokemmo is good. Otherwise every new game is better than the previous if you play all of them.
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.
