Protect the Vayne vs Protect the Kog


Opposed to the meta where you sacrificed your AD? I'm pretty sure in every meta you tried to protect your damage.


/facepalm

As opposed to the many AD carries that are beefy/have escapes.

Protect the trist was the original comp. And she has an escape. And she is STILL the hardest carry in the game.

how is giving some team a second chance equal to giving another team a big advantage? if every team gets a second chance nobody has the right to complain.


WOW
Most people I talk to dislike "extended series" or giving the winning team a game up. It feels a bit anti-climatic when the team with the advantage wins. I'm not saying they didn't deserve it or anything, but it's jsut less fun (for me anyway, and seem like a lot of people feel the same with that I talk to). Personally? I like single elimination. Much more "on-the-line", tense atomosphere.

But my complaint isn't so much "the losers bracket champ is at such a big disadvantage, it's unfair"...it's much more "this isn't fun to watch if the winners bracket champ has such a huge advantage."


WOW again.
you trying to troll me or something?
this whole thing would have already ended if this wasn't double elimination.

try to view it as a get-out-of-jail-card.

if you're playing with your family everybody gets one of these. then maybe you are forced to use yours early because you suck at this game and your mother saves her for later in the game.
is it unfair because your mother has hers when it counts later? no, because you already had your chance and blew it.

I greatly prefer CLG teamcomp over TSM's. Protect the Kog-comp with 0 CC and 0 shields and 0 knockbacks?

Predicting CLG to take this.

You really don't understand, do you? How about this. If it was single elimination, CLG would be in the bronze match. Now they are in the finals. Is being in the finals instead of the bronze match an advantage for them, or a disadvantage? Please answer me.



No, you don't understand. Take CLG out of the equation. It's the tournament SET UP I have a problem with. Not that fact that CLG has a disadvantage or how lucky they should feel they ahve a second shot. I dislike the set up. I want the finals to be even-stevens, which would probably require the tourney to be single elim (which is what I prefer). Clear things up?

CLG most definitely feels grateful to have a second shot. I'm glad they're in the finals too, I like watching them. But PERSONALLY? I prefer single elim.

That's what I prefer, sir. Single elimination. Are you calling me a troll simply because I prefer single elim?

Then watch only the winners bracket and stop watching the tournament at the winners finals(There you go, single elimination tournament for you) or go cry to your mommy about not understanding the structure of the tournament, I'm done.
