How does that make any sense considering they don't affect the game at all. XD from what i understand, the spectator client was patched since last iem and now if the spectators try to reconnect, the whole game crashes. Wow, that's like regression... Why in the world would they put that live? How is this new Spec Patch at MLG better than the one they had at GC I wonder.
Honestly, issues like these is why Riot needs some sort of PTR. Even if all they do is find bugs, or try to abuse the system, it's STILL better than delivering this type of product.

Only reason they have not been talked about much is because after Dreamhack they were not at any other tourneys. They are a REALLY strong team.
I'll say it again, EG had incredibly individual players. Their team synergy might not be as high as TSM's at TSM's best but I'd vote for EG the majority of the time.

Actually the biggest misstake Riot has ever done was to create their game on the AIR platform, its not made for large scale network games and its been holding them back since the dawn of time.

I keep hearing this. I don't know much about software engineering but that department has got to be Riot's biggest weakness obviously.

yeah, its quite disheartening. the same bugs from iem (swap bug, spectator drop but able to reconnect) are still present, but now more bugs are present (morde and yorick causing spec client to crash and spec client not being able to reconnect).

EG much stronger now that they have a dedicated support player instead of Dyrus/Doublelift playing support.

Dan always Jungle West always AD (bot, sometimes mid) PGB always support (bot)
Dyrus and Salce are solos. Salce is AP specialist. Dyrus is a niche player.
