I'm really not liking it because even though it can easily be solved, the teams seem to show no sign of wanting to do that effort. Also doesn't change the fact that you could have ideal builds on every champion, you still need to not get binded or cocooned as the AD an overwhelming number of times. Builds don't make you play better, they enhance your play. | ||

Riot's left it at a perfect level. They don't hype up unworthy players until they're forced to ACHIEVE something to get known. In South Korea there's incredible competition in even the lowest form of daily tournies, where the good teams stick around and the ones with "potential" either grow into their boots or fall by the wayside. If a team gets on fire, and one person is carrying super hard for them, they'll get "X picks X" videos that put their name on a spotlight, or they'll be a featured streamer. Let the pros who are really truly good carry their team, or die trying. It boosts the skill level, which the NA scene desperately needs. | ||

Setting aside any issues people have with his casting, why did we never get a Kobe/Jatt pairing? It might be Riot's idea of one analytic caster and one play-by-play shoutcaster. Both Kobe and Jatt are analytic, while Riv and people like Deman or Wombat are more of the shouting style. | ||

Why didn't Chuuper move? Oo Lee missing, they knew their blue was warded, doesn't move, Lee comes in and kills Vi. | ||

I do agree with that, but there are some underapreciated players that are deserving of such a spotlight. Take Patoy, he led the NA LCS in KDA into week 2, and I along with most people believe he's the best support in North America. But have we seen a feature on his plays? An interview with him? Some comments from the casters on his outstanding play? I mean stars create themselves, but giving them a bit of a push along the way can also help. | ||

Chuuper really looks like a liability so far, between his Cass ults, his lack of map awareness, and of presence in general. Did Nickwu miss the Shen taunt on that gank? It seemed like it. Maybe they could have saved Vi if it hit, since Cho would have died faster... Oh wow clutch heals and flashes all around to save people in that jungle fight. | ||

GGU seems way ahead because coL only has components while GGU basically has either a BT or a Locket on everyone on their team save Leona. | ||
