For example on EG Snoopeh was team captain (albeit not officially), as he was mostly determining what the team was doing outside of the game. Also probably chiefly responsible for going to NA now. But ingame others were more important for calling shots.

But no really, making decisions for a team is very unique to each team, depending on how much latitude you can give to each player. Some players are better when given specific orders, others are better with more independence.
What works for one team may not work for another team so it's kinda hard to say who is a good decision maker and who isn't when it's entirely dependent on their style of captaincy and their play style of their teammates.

so you guys are saying that a captain is a tank and a shot caller is a melee carry right?
|
I'm pretty certain the captain is the support and the shot-caller is the Teemo player.

on this shot call topic,
The first SKT T1 team (reapered and his solo queue babies) He was a shot caller in the same way that Reginald was. Literally every thing that happened they asked Reapered. I remember there was some funny ones like "do we hit the turret" "they're poking us do we poke back?" and they ended up winning the first tournament they were in
There is a post on reddit with the actual voice comms recorded and translated somewhere

Speaking of terrorists, Captain boots on Elise are pretty crazy. Don't even need a slow, nothing escapes from those little spiders.

Have to say, NACL picking up a Two Steps from Hell playlist makes me so happy.

No tournament thread of the Challenger League?
I'm surprised that Chuuper's still in a pro team. I only ever see him feeding, no matter the role.
|
Sorry if it was talked about (I'm a bit behind) but if EG is making an NA team, what are they competing in? I thought LCS Promo/Relegation slots were already decided?

Still waiting on full roster discloser, though, we only have Ongamers.net confirmation
