ARAM in a nutshell. Game should end after first tower is down.

If this is prize splitting these teams should be banned from mlg for fall and winter season.

There's not much room for him to do his job and he doesn't know the rules. I honestly don't blame him.

I...I don't know what to make of this.
I guess part of the issue here is Riot's 'Circuit Points' model since neither team cares about the results of this particular tourney, but it really shows the immaturity of the LoL e-sports scene in general. Do any of the other major sports or e-sports get away with this type of thing, or hell, even attempt it?

In Smash Bros Brawl, the best player in the world M2K and one of the other best (at the time) ADHD were banned from national finals in Dalls. Now, it might've just been because it was the next tournament and it happened to be nationals, but either way kind of a big deal.

ARAM in a major finals like MLG is a complete joke and terrible to watch.

why would mlg even be mad about this lol. this will give them so much publicity, think of the views the vods for this will get.



They have been trying for years to promote competitive gaming as a serious competition. Something like this kind of sets back the idea that these tour stops are legitimate competition. Could you see golfing, tennis, x-games type competitive systems that are similar to esports model being ok with this?



This 100%. I am almost certain we will see some fallout from this match.


No kidding. This is basically Naniwa probe rush, except NesTea agrees to drone rush as well.

I paid money to see the best two teams in the tournament face off in a show of incredible skill. What I'm watching is the equivalent of 2v2 fun match before an MLG arena finals. This is embarrassing.
I hope Plexa's sig is right.

mew2king who won like every single super smash bros MLG was splitting them and he got perma banned from MLG

ive always seen splitting differently since in games like magic the gathering, splitting is acceptable even on the biggest tourneys worth 100 grand

What if they don't split haha. It's like 8k more for 1st place? That's 1.6k for each player + tax and sponsor fees and whatever else they have to pay. I don't think it's THAT big of a deal for them I don't know.


What.... it's obviously a split, you think they'd troll instead of playing serious when there's an easy 1.6k?

I would be more interested in seeing a "normal" game, but with role swaps. Like scarra plays ADC (I never see him playing ADC), IWD play mid, etc.

this would be at least better sportsmanship than an ARAM
i'd be curious aswell :D and wouldn't reveal anything as well

Guys it's a video game. I know on this site we want esports to be like real sports but it just won't happen. People play video games to have fun. They're obviously enjoying themselves, just let them be. It's like FBH troll dancing on stage. It's not professional but it's really fucking funny.

Matt Marcou is on scene at MLG. If he's okay'd this, then I dunno. But it's up to him to make the call, not MLG, about Regionals.
It's like, "Is the Federation's Mobile Suit some kind of monster?"

Probe rush (cheesing) =/= two teams essentially colluding and not giving a fuck about either their viewers or the tourney organizers/Riot.
