Keep the rage to a minimum. This includes wait times between games, music, and balance.

Fair warning to all.

And this only happened because group stage matches are Bo1 instead of Bo2.

Bad attack paths and movement control around Baron. Blue side has an easier side dewarding the area giving it more mid-late game tempo. Blue Buff being top jungle also means you can give Blue to your top lane more easily which is relevant in specific strategies.

Not to mention you get first ban and first pick, which changes how teams may strategize

If sides/first pick are chosen beforehand, maybe it's possible for Riot to implement a draft where the admins can decide each separately. Kinda like football where a team chooses first possession/side and the other team can choose whatever's left from the remaining option.

There are downsides to blue though. Last pick is almost as strong as first pick. Bottom lane is a lot easier to tower dive if you're blue side (although you tend to get an XP advantage from double golems on blue side).

I think that's about it. Not saying that purple is better but it's not like purple has only negatives attached to it. Blue is still superior but I think that the better team is going to win in the majority of games regardless of what side they're on.

While it sucks I don't think CLGna potentially going 0-3 tomorrow would be the result of them on purple side. Especially since they have Jesus and s2secretsgg.doc on their side.

Bot lane blue is so gewd
potential exp advantage from minigolems and/or control / ability to obtain red early as needed or desired (as well as greater ease to defend your own red in case of an invade).
the purple side jungler has to go out of their way to gank bottom on early clears (through wraith ramp to avoid river / tribush wards) that takes time away from clearing / exp, so with any early exp advantage botlane essentially has the clear to be aggressive given that they have decent ward coverage for themselves.

300k not counting China?
No idea how much that will bring.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

I don't think djWHEAT himself has really shit on any games with a pro scene. Some of the others on his shows like Slasher or Scoots have been known to make snide remarks about LoL but nothing really serious. Maybe you're thinking of 2GD.

It's not a really good time for the Europeans so it might not be that big. I always associate the huge numbers with EU tournaments like DH 2011 or IEM Hanover. Maybe something like 250k.

riots ready to break the world.

http://www.twitch.tv/team/riotgames

those are quite a few different languages. I don't see the s2 champs on the community calender right now is just not gona be on there?

I think we're going to be measuring the viewers in the millions if thats even possible. lets just say an even 12 million for the finals .
A wise man will say that he knows nothing. We're gona party like its 2752 Hail Dark Brandon

I think ogn is streaming it for korea? And there are 2(maybe 3) chinese streams. IIRC

The viewership should be good. I just hope Tencent/Riot release some in-depth numbers.
