Two things as public notice: 1. + Show Spoiler [Quarterfinals 1 spoiler] +Congrats to Fnatic, they played superbly and glgl to them in the Semis! No one is saying that Fnatic only won because of the level 1 in Game 3. Please keep the nationalistic statements out of our subforum. 2. Riot's Worlds format is atrocious. Let's not beat a dead horse here. I will certainly be talking to Riot's eSports dept about it in the near future. I simply ask everyone to be civil. Humble in victory, graceful in defeat. Enjoy the games~ -Neo, Sept 23rd, 3:20 PM PDT, page 120 |

You saw nothing, man. You saw nothing.
I can't remember if I had that since the beginning, or I just did it after the second game mistakenly. Also thanks for spotting that.

They do this in American football, where the coinflip winner determines who gets the ball first and the loser picks the endzone sides

Like every single thing in life that has a coinflip has this. Just not League of Legends. There is always some tradeoff you are making with a choice just in LoL there is no trade. You get the better side for objectives, you get the first pick/ban in drafting and you get the camera angle that is favoured

has everyone else noticed how bad the camerawork is? Feels like with such good production quality, they really need to hire a better camera guy.
edit: talking about in-game camera ofc.

Its just the mid meta that favours first pick instead of last pick imo.

They can just go blind pick for the last game like OGN. Addresses the first pick problems and adds another level of strategic depth. Riotplz
