Two things as public notice:
1. + Show Spoiler [Quarterfinals 1 spoiler] +
Congrats to Fnatic, they played superbly and glgl to them in the Semis!
No one is saying that Fnatic only won because of the level 1 in Game 3. Please keep the nationalistic statements out of our subforum.


2. Riot's Worlds format is atrocious. Let's not beat a dead horse here. I will certainly be talking to Riot's eSports dept about it in the near future.

I simply ask everyone to be civil. Humble in victory, graceful in defeat.
Enjoy the games~

You saw nothing, man. You saw nothing.

I can't remember if I had that since the beginning, or I just did it after the second game mistakenly. Also thanks for spotting that.

As funny as this blue side OP thing, I've seen little to imply that it has had a big impact on these games. Teams have just taken turns doing shitty drafts and they happen to be doing it on purple side. I don't think it's an issue of first pick either. Stuff like TF and Nunu have just been weird picks.

First pick vs second pick drafts very differently. I don't think it's coincidence that drafts from purple side are worse.

EDIT: In fact, part of the express purpose of changing the multi-phase ban system in DotA was to mitigate the first pick draft advantage (e.g. second pick in first pick phase gets first pick in the second pick phase).

There's a reason every team picks blue side whenever they win the coin flip.


Well if there was a disconnect between FP and Side then maybe there would be a choice at the coin flip but there isn't so it's silly that coin flip isn't just who is blue lol(I guess it is anyway)

The logical solution is to let 1 team choose pick order and the other choose map side, but despite a whole season of blue/purple imbalance being a potential issue, Riot still has not implemented anything in client to make this possible.


They do this in American football, where the coinflip winner determines who gets the ball first and the loser picks the endzone sides

I wish they at least got a different song between rounds. Also that sound of the game thing is nice. I wish they did it more.

Like every single thing in life that has a coinflip has this. Just not League of Legends. There is always some tradeoff you are making with a choice just in LoL there is no trade. You get the better side for objectives, you get the first pick/ban in drafting and you get the camera angle that is favoured

Analyst desk is a shame to the community. Talking about these mundane issues like drafting, laning, map control when they should be talking about how OP BLUE is.

has everyone else noticed how bad the camerawork is? Feels like with such good production quality, they really need to hire a better camera guy.

edit: talking about in-game camera ofc.

Its just the mid meta that favours first pick instead of last pick imo.

They can just go blind pick for the last game like OGN. Addresses the first pick problems and adds another level of strategic depth. Riotplz
