I blame the way LoL champ select works. Having each person pick instead of just having a captain have the final decision leads to a lot of stupidity. I doubt Puppey would let his team pick some retarded shit, he just picks whatever he feels can win.

Not having the team's captain calling the picks in a competitive team is dumb anyway, regardless of who physically does it.


Yeah exactly, competitive teams should be disciplined enough to do this with the existing mode already or else they don't deserve better

Yeah, I'm more amused by the translation than anything. It seems he's more fluent than the CN translator which...made me lose my will to live.

I don't remember which team it was that had the female translator during the world championships, I think it might have been iG again, but holy crap that lady was just awful at her job.

Royal had the awful lady interpreter, actually might have been OMG because Tabe spoke after every Royal win.

She's now cancering LMQ. Unfortunately she's better than that god awful interpreter that iG had after Game 1.

Most of these teams don't have one person calling draft. It's more of a group discussion with some preplanning sometimes. When you aren't used to a stressful environment then this just puts way more pressure on the team as a whole. I've always felt having one person being the final word regardless of what anyone else thinks is the best way to do it since it reduces the stress on the other players. It's just pretty hard to find people that are strong enough to do it while still listening to input.

This is why it was really funny when TSM "role swapped" regi to top lane so dyrus couldn't pull stupid shit on him. It was just so Regi could control his team's pick/bans. I guess they had dissenting opinions, and dyrus chose wrongly. lolol

Yeah, TSM had more than a few internal issues at the time.

Yes they do. Which is why it's really ridiculous that it needed to be done. As you can guess, they seemed to have internal issues at the time.

There were disagreements which as first pick Dyrus could always get his viewpoint on, since he could just pick the champion and lock in.

There were disagreements which as first pick Dyrus could always get his viewpoint on, since he could just pick the champion and lock in.

iirc, that was when Xpecial was trying to do some decision making instead of Regi and Chaox was still on the team.
