Either way, they're missing something. Korea is basically flopping from OSL only to PL only. A league format just makes more sense for weaker teams/smaller sponsors.

As I said a while ago, the LCS format wasn't even the most contentious part of the changes. As far as I'm aware, more people took issue with the abolition of OGN Winter, and the retention of the one-team-per-organization rule, which LCS/LPL don't even enforce anymore (LPL dropped it a long time ago, and LCS obviously isn't enforcing it if Curse Academy are allowed to participate in LCS expansion). A lot less people would be up in arms if this were a simple format change to OGN that didn't include those two things.

OGN isn't so much switching to the LCS format as much as they are switching to an outdated LCS format of a year ago (i.e. only 8 teams and one-team-per-organization).


A small correction here. Liquid already said they would be selling the Curse Academy team if they actually get into LCS exactly because of the rule enforced by Riot:

http://www.ongamers.com/articles/curse-owner-liquid112-discusses-possible-sale-of-c/1100-2162/

The rule applies for LCS teams only, and owners spending their money to grow the amateur scene/their brand isn't discouraged by Riot afaik

Actually in the latest update to Challenger Series rules, they explicitly addressed that owners can only have one team in LCS and one in CS (with exception that if someone already had two or more challenger teams, like Liquid, then they are allowed to keep both).
Americans don't like to use unblockables, it is considered not honest. You press a button at the wrong time and hit the other person, you are random, not a top player. You DP Sim's far fierce, it is random and not honest.

That doesn't refute anything ketchup said though...

I'm adding to the "Owners spending their money to grow amateur scene isn't discouraged by Riot" though. Ketchup post sounded like Riot doesn't have any rules concerning team ownership in CS so I thought I'd add that part.

curse acad will disband if they get in to lcs according to SV. which means they are all hoping to get picked up by lcs teams or will make their own team if they feel they are good enough together.

seems a bit dickish to me to play when you know you cant accept the prize but whatever.

No, the team would just be sold.

Would make the most sense to sell it to Saint. I dont know how competitive the bidding would be for a low-tier LCS team, but it kinda sucks to find a market when people know you have to sell.

The problem is there's nothing that would encourage teams to grow the amateur scene.. The benefit is almost non-existent considering the investment required to make a decent amateur team.

Well most of these teams have qualified, but they probably want to avoid curse academy at all costs.

the worst part is, the system is supposed to create an increase in the amount of sponsors and such for the league, but no one is going to want to pick up a brand new LCS team that was a B team of another LCS team. after all, if that B team was worth having as an investment, the first team would have used those players for the A team.

all u do is charge into the enemy team with your shield actiavetad and you jusat then charge your Q while they are stunend and you will do tons of damage like kameha level and then u acautlay try to get usrelf killed so ur apssive twill be a nuisance for thea nemy team andhopefuöly you havew on the teamfiet.

Its pretty lulzy, reminds me of just shitting on kids in S1.

<3 <3 <3

OMG. My number one pet peeve in lol, that makes me rage harder than anything else is when idiots just dont play for the team. Like you ace their team, have 30 seconds to do whatever and they just like go do wraiths instead of helping you clear an objectives. UGH. I dont care if you hard feed, I dont care if you make stupid positioning mistakes, i dont care about any of that. Everyone has bad games, and thats fine its not a big deal.

But when you just refuse to take objectives when you can you lose games. You just straight up lose games.

They told me when I got good enough people stopped chasing sole survivor Nidalees down and took free inhibitors instead. They lied to me.

Dont be those people TL, dont be those people.
