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

Fair warning to all.

Lol. Riot so lucky they have those 3 for damage control.


Yes, Deman used to be amazing at filling and damage control during the Call of Duty 4 tournaments back in the day aswell.

You would think that riot would've learned from Valve on how to run these kinds of tournaments.



You got jokes..? OGN has been running tournaments in places with games when valve's idea of hat's on things was but a twinkle in newel's eye.


I hear the new OSL is going very well. Tons of viewers every night, heated LR threads, etc.

Oh wait.

But the Azubu the Champions Tournament is a smashing success in Korea, and they already hosted 2 big finals without a hitch.


Look, Korea doesn't have the same sort of issues we have here in the US. OGN doesn't deal with the venue network hardware failures that US organizers deal with regularly. OGN broadcasts to television stations, which never happens with US eSports.

Valve is a better model for Riot because they are an US company and ran their tournament in the US. There's no excuse for Riot to fail this bad given their financial success, and one hopes they're going to learn a lot from this experience.


You mean riot isn't a US company, running their tourney in the US?

Valve would react the exact same way if they got hit with hardware issues during the international. Anyone thinking otherwise is fooling themselves.


Valve is willing to give LAN.
That's the main difference.


And LANs are somehow exempt from hardware issues?

well, at least WE gets away from the ori/malph/sona/cho combo, lol.




a LAN between 9 pcs is easier to find the error for and repair than an internet setup that is streaming to 500k people.

SC2 tournaments like last year used to only have 1 casting pair per stream for the whole day, I think he's almost used to it.

It's internet hardware issue, isn't it ?
Anyhow, LAN would have prevent like 99% of the problems we had the last years at events.

He makes for a fantastic host. I don't like his play-by-play, but as a time-filler and a host he's brilliant.

UPDATE from Riot to @SotLTravis: They will try ONE more time. If it fails, matches will be played out at a different location at a time TBD.
