Or you know teams could switch before the last second. They had 20 seconds to switch. They didnt.
Its no ones fault but there own.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

So the fact that Riot doesn't have this rule implemented in the Client makes the actual rule "a very stupid rule" ?

How is that stupid?

You could be swapping a midlaner for a support 1 second before game launch without leaving the enemy team any counterplay or time to react


Huh, they have the whole game to react.

not enough time to set up right runes/masteries.

Plus I've never seen this rule broken before meaning teams have been able to trade within the allotted time over hundreds of matches with no issue.

they want to keep parity between solo queue and pro play.


How would making this change affect parity? You could change it for soloque as well. If theres any reason for them to change for LCS and not for soloque, that would suggest that they don't want parity

Actually, Fnatic lost a ban for this reason during worlds. But yes, it doesn't happen very often. All the teams are aware of the rule.

The best solution is to have teams be able to pick champs out of order, and scrap swapping altogether. But that requires more overhaul of the client than I think they can handle anytime soon.

sry but this is stupid. in many sports are rules and there is no client to make things 100% sure. i doubt there are many things they have to keep in mind beside the game.


Actually that's not a very good line of thinking. The more "rules" you implement in the game itself the easier it is to both control and understand. That's why when Dota had items being banned the game itself was eventually changed to stop that from happening. Sports analogies are typically bad in these scenarios. If they could have every rule built into the field of play somehow I highly doubt they wouldn't do that. It's just not possible where as on the PC that is much easier to do.

This is only true when one assumes that they will always face their "counter-part". This hasn't been true for league in a long time. So it's in no way a valid assumption to make. Seems more like a placeholder from when league was actually like that. A gentlemen's agreement.

It's like if you have a race and saying

"instead of starting immediately were all going to wait 20seconds after we blow the whistle, then everyone can begin the race"

If riot doesn't want them to trade with 20 seconds left it's their responsibility to change the client so that players can't do that, there is no reason other than laziness not to do this.

It's because the game is really one-sided so no one wants to talk about it.

so what has fnatic done brilliantly in this game? It's been fairly standard play from fnatic, got early lane lead through just better laners, and then snowball against a team that has absolutely no waveclear. fnatic just outcomped all.

Actually it's exactly like that, riot has full control over the format of their league and their game client. At least provide some explanation if you're going to dispute.
