I mean, I understand his point. He wants a 20 second phase of swapping, followed by a 20 second phase of rune/mastery adjusting. This is not a bad idea.
The only thing is I have no idea how hard that is to code in, and since every team is able to follow the "arbitrary" rules it'd be better for Riot to focus their time on fixing shit like the Shen ult cancel bug or the Aatrox bug that have caused much larger problems in important games than missing one ban because you couldn't follow the rules.

Its getting boring seeing c9+fnatic in all stars. Eu/Na always have the same winners in play-offs that it will hurt them so much. There is literally only 1-2 teams that is competition with those two. Ozone will probaly spring split and skt/omg will win all stars, boring and predictable. Im not watching lcs anymore.

once they add a feature like that it opens the floodgates for future tournament only adjustments, aka no excuse not to just go for some full blown Captians Mode Clone (having to mimic the live client is the reason they've given the last 2 years for not upgrading)

Just an FYI the 20 second rule is something Riot took from OGN because the rule made so much sense, no idea why people are so butthurt about it lol
"people", it's literally only 1 person.

it's always been fucking obvious that OGN is the only tournament with highest level of play. if this was always an issue for you, you never should have watched any of the lcs in the first place.

people getting butthurt over ban taken away while actually they just trying to subconsciously trying to blame someone for ALL loss.
Why? This isn't the first time this happened on NA or EU, yet no one complained before. This is a established rule in the OGN. No one complained there either.
Srsly get a grip on yourselves, plus the nidalee wasnt the crucial factor in the win in game 3. All sidelines crumbled without any jungle pressure is more why they lost than anything else.

Why even bother? because instead of them taking the responsibility and fixing the client themselves they put the responsibility onto the players for no reason other than their refusal to change the client.
By having this rules there is ONLY the possibility of a bad situation happening, if everyone abides by the rule, then everything is fine, business as usual, but if the rule is broken and someone loses a ban, then now we have a shitty situation for no reason other than because riot is being lazy.
Why should the players have to deal with remembering one other thing when they are focused on practicing and remembering game plans and all of these things, why would you add on one more thing for them to remember when you could just fix the problem at its root?
edit: for those saying to stop blaming riot, i dont care that Alliance lost, I am not a fan of any EU teams i dont care. The rule is just pointless and I don't like pointless rules

SK's waveclear is weak, but if they get ahead it'll be pretty brutal for Roc.
uhhhh, Roccat's waveclear is gunna be pretty slow. I prefer SK's comp.

Akali... hmm, thats intresting , if she gets 1 or 2 kills its pretty much snowball from there, but there is the Kayle for SK so she might prevent people from blowing up

I don't have high hopes for Roccat even though I'd like to see them win - they only beat SK once all season and couldn't win at the beginning of the year before SK had figured out how to play with each other.

Whoa is this the overpow of old that doesn't just farm! Dam ROC may just be back

Definitely rooting for SK because everybody is against them lol. Also nRated ftw.

There are these kinds of rules in every sport. Official starting lineups have to be set before a certain (arbitrary) time before the game starts and if you want to make changes, you're charged a substitution. Just in this case the charged sub = a lost ban. It's more a matter of losing something for the next game rather than the current one.

I believe Roccat are gimmicky team , playing crazy shit like akali morde talon and stuff... that wont get them far

I'd like SK if their team wasn't heavily populated by ragey douches. I think CandyP and nRated are awesome, but I can't get past Jesiz being arrogant as fuck, and Sven/Fredy being duoqueue ragers who team up on people when they don't play well.
