After picks, you must swap champs within a certain period of time (before the last 20 secs) in order to give the opposite team time to prepare runes and masteries. You can't pick shyvana, hover her top lane, and then switch her to jungle in the last second (not in LCS anyway) | ||

I say it's minor because I don't see why it matters who is playing what. That doesn't dictate lanes(Well shouldn't) anyway. Hasn't in a long time. Seems really harsh to lose a ban in the final game in a Bo3 because of that. | ||

means cheating by working the rules. this fizz pick is interesting, alliance gunna have a hard time clearing waves if they fall behind, and a hard time diving if they do get ahead. | ||

Hasn't in a long time. Seems really harsh to lose a ban in the final game in a Bo3 because of that. imagine in poker when someone who knows the rule fully well acts like he doesn't and while making an opening bet he says "raise" instead to get an reaction out of his opponent. It also makes his hand seem stronger than it probably is. | ||

Sorry for the gambling term - heh, my poker background betrays me A good explanation via urban dictionary is 'In poker, using unethical means to take advantage of inexperienced opponents.' Essentially without the punishment - teams would be incentivized to wait until the last possible second to swap, hoping to catch their opponents with sub-optimal runes/masteries. Angle-shooting can generally be seen as not cheating, but using 'ungentlemanly or underhanded tactics' | ||

This meta is perfect for them, mass heal, laneswap hard pushes. It's like a tribute to Scarra aside from the Gragas rework. | ||
