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

Fair warning to all.

Straight from Riot. They are trying to resume the game. If it crashes again then they will continue the tourn. next week from a diff venue.


And the internet is about to explode with ridiculous chants of unfair advantage to the players already in the semis

They can study so so much at this point knowing their opponents O.O CLG and WE will still need to play their quarter first

Biggest problem? How are these people gonna pay for their lodging and what kind of impact will this have on their personal lives if they can't stay and if this happens again?


Riot paid for everything for the players/teams


They have some deep pockets O.O I wonder what would happen if RIOT had less money than they do know ever?

As long as they have the backing of that massive Chinese company their pockets should be well lined.


League itself actually is a massive cash cow. I think it's even at the point where it can overtake WoW.



WoW just announced it had around 10 mil subscribers. For 15 dollars a month they make $1,800,000,000 from subs alone. thats almost 2 billions dollars, if riot is making more then that just off of their cash shop


You can actually look at Blizzard's financials to find the actual number

Blizzard doesn't make $15 per subscriber per month. It ends up being much less in most cases for Asian countries, plus reduced rates for longer subs. I have no idea what Riot makes yearly.

That's surprising.
I would think gaming event could protect themselves against that.

They make whatever Tengsen is willing to pay.
Which is often way too much.

Also costs for Blizzard should be MUCH higher than for Riot. There is a lot of work constantly going into WoW.

How the fuck can it even be a DDoS? How did someone get the IP of the venue internet and then spread it out to enough people that it would flood the hardware at the venue? And why is there such a variable break in between crashes?

If it is a DoS, how the fuck did they not pick up on a single/very few connections totally fucking over the Internet at the venue?


it's not a single/very few connection fucking over the Internet at the venue

it's a botnet of tons of infected computers sending junk data or connection attempts to the venue WAN link that is being used for the event

Riot needs to talk to the venue manager to talk to the venue's service provider to try to get some kind of solution to the DDOS
E-Sports is competitive video gaming with a spectator fan base. Do not take the word "Sports" literally.

They also have massive server/support costs. Blizzard's numbers are public although I'm not shure if Riot's are. Though I've read that LoL is speculated to make as much/more than WoW on some gaming industry websites. No real source though obviously.
