This is pretty simple really.

If you implement such a feature (20 seconds no trade) you need to test it. That takes up the QA's time and resources in addition to the development cost.

It's like if you have a race and saying

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.

Actually it's not like that at all lol


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.



Every team in both LCSs have been able to follow this rule all year.

Even if Riot could make it more efficient, and maybe they will in the future (they could even be working on it now), it's still entirely on Alliance to not fuck up.

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.

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.


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.



No it's not, just give it up already.

1 second before start they could be swapping a shyvana for a jungle lee sin, a mid lulu for a mid soraka, AND change ignites on 2 players with 2 teleports.

All this while the enemy team has no time to react.

Nidalee did nothing, Alliance's problem was their top and bot lanes getting absolutely wrecked without any jungle interference.

dude even in real life there are rules to follow stop blaming riot.
of course it would be an idea to make a mechanic in the client like that but rules are rules man.
do you think in soccer when a penalty shoot is made that the other 10 players are locked in their rooms to prevent that more then one makes the shoot?

This isn't a shot at Froggen, I'm just not convinced Fizz is a competitive pick with the new heal and new exaust as they are on 4.5 He even secured the lane advantage Fizz should have against Nidalee and it didn't end up meaning shit.

not to mention Wild Growth which also ignores Seastone was already on the board as well.
Carrilord has arrived.

That's kinda cool actually.

I really don't care for fnatic, but having all 3 season winners at the same event would be pretty legit.

It probably would have went better if his team didn't fall a part around him, but yes, going without a safe, wave-clearing midlaner is certainly a dangerous proposition in this meta.

I think that game made it very hard to tell because Alliance's top and bot lanes got completely dumpstered on their own so Froggen didn't really have a chance to make any plays on the map.

That being said I agree 4.5 is pretty shitty for assassins.

Both of these statements are true, but completely beside the point. The point is that riot should be professional enough to not need this ARBITRARY rule, if the rule has been in place all year then that means they've had at least that long to make a change to the client.

I thought the enemy teams don't see summoners. Also don't see what your champ swapping example is meant to accomplish. This is after draft phase has been done. They already have champs selected so any reaction is going to happen in game after some information has been gathered regardless of who plays what on the enemy team.

This is silly.
I think this is the first time we've ever had this discussion ever.

I think Riot made that rule, everyone remembered it, they figured it was no problem, and just didn't bother changing the client because why even bother.

Please. Every single LCS team knows about the 20 second rule, they have a full 40 seconds + the entire pick phase to discuss swaps, teams losing bans for it is rarely an issue, and even if it was, I think teams would much prefer the ability to swap at the cost of a ban, rather than not being able to swap at all.

Where you at Thooorin , where you at mofo xD Everyone who counted Fnatic out doesnt know shit about them or EU LCS )) Cyanide stepping up ,
Rekkles playing like a beast like he always does(he is IMO top 5 adc in the world ),
sOAZ outclassed Wickd so fking hard but he did cheese him kinda with odd picks,
YellowStarr , what to say about this guy , top3 EU Support for sure ,
Peke looked shaky in 2nd game , especially on Zed where he didnt buy singe defensive item and didnt do pretty much anything since mid game .

Im confident to say that whoever Fnatic plays in the finals , Fnatic will beat them and win their 3 split in a row!!! :DD Fnatic Fighting!!! <3
