33 minutes is pretty standard. It's not at all dragged out.

Lol@the people saying roccat were afraid to close it. With so much on the line why take risks when you can take a 100% chance to win ? Why would you go for the 99,99% ? They are not playing to entertain you they are playing to win.

i think i saw amazing in the audience just now. there are single rooms for the teams to get dressed etc, so i assume there's gonna be a tv in there too.

because sometimes dragging it out can actually lose you the game, but tbh roccat so far ahead they could have dragged that out another 20 minutes and they'd still have 100% chance of winning.

I don't think anyone said that roccat were afraid to close it. It's more of a joke of the current EU style, which is to get a 10k+ gold lead ASAP, and still struggle to close out the game.

Roccat 2-0?

Gambit had to play Roccat because of the Aatrox bug lost them one game?

All planned. #conspiracy

That rematch made no difference. Every team would still have been in the exact same standing as they are now.

The community was outraged and then promptly forgot about it when URF got released.

Agree everyone was saying WTF and argued and it is ended with Thank you Riot for URF.

I wasnt outraged about it and I dont care about URF. Also Gambit (or their fans) cant use that as an excuse forever.

What if that happened to Fnatic? Would you still be as laid back about it as with Gambit?

I am not a Fnatic fan. Try Alliance.

And imo it was a serious bug that warranted a regame. It wold have been a regame om the day it was played if the ref had acted correctly, and much less people would have complained.
But even if it was a wrong decision, that happens in football or whatever all the time. No excuse to lose the next 5 games. Besides Gambit got a good bracket now.

I don't think the team matters. I just chose fnatic because that's what people have been focusing on in the last few pages here.

I think in the end, neither team decided that a rematch was necessary. NRated said even if they were given the chance to regame at the time, they wouldn't have taken it. They were basically forced to play again by Riot, and they couldn't say no. So yea, stupid situation for a stupid decision made by Riot. It basically tells you how bad the decision was when the team who gains the most from it is distancing themselves from the decision/situation.

http://www.ongamers.com/videos/nrated-shares-his-thoughts-after-the-remake-match-/2300-445/

I watched that, and nRated said later on he doesnt know if he had taken it. He also said the bug significantly influenced the game. He was just acting apologetic, and I think it is very likely that they would have taken it.

It's just a shitty situation for all parties involved. There's no way for SK to get out of that situation while saving face, if they were indeed forced to play by Riot as they said.

Luckily that game has literally no impact on the standing. If GMB had won SK would still be first (tied with Fnatic but with better head to head) and GMB would still be 5th (tied with Roccat, but Roccat has better head to head).

thats the joke, to consider their defeat vs CW as certain, despite that not being the case, just to make fun of them.

Heh, I got an upset but not the one I wanted. I'm suprised people are bashing CW so hard, I think they would've easily won this if at least one of their solo lanes was competent and didn't make so many individual mistakes. If they could clone Froggen, they might be top2 in EU. Eh, time to see what happened with GMB.

Not sure about why Alliance would ban Jax. The Irelia ban from Fnatic tells me that they don't want to pick Jax, otherwise they'd have let her open because of how overwhelmingly in favor of Jax the match-up is post-6 (then again, it's sOAZ, not exactly a consistent/solid top laner), banning Renekton or Ryze away from Wickd instead since they are much harder match-ups.
