Taking longer in a bo1 LoL match is like winning 2-1 in a bo3. That's a ding against you. It would be best if they could set up tiebreaker matches but Pool B has to play and we don't know how many comps they have to run the tournament. | ||

Also, I am pretty sure this was the rule from the start, and every team should know that rule in advance. | ||

couldnt they have at least done combined score differential or something that actually correlates to the outcome of the game | ||

I haven't been following a ton of these kinds of tourneys, but didn't The International for DoTA2 also use game times? | ||

Or anything except kicking the clear best team in this group out of the tournament entirely? This. Do they not have enough computers or something? | ||

Yes but LoL is totally different than DotA in terms of time and what it means to play safe, in LoL it can be a much bigger advantage to sit back , heal up, grab global buffs, grab relevant potions and than push out, while in DotA it is much more push-orientated because of the lack of a Recall button. | ||
