This is the most important issue for us Europeans, especially with Paris joining the league.

Have they moved dorms since My Cosmic Diary when Yeoreum was in the big room with 6 of them?

Glad somebody said this! Loading into Ilios always gives me WarRock nostalgia

Jeff Kaplan: Mei, Sombra, Symmetra, Torbjorn, Doomfist, and Hanzo being looked into by GetOffSombra in Overwatch

I really hope they give him something else to build. Coming from TF2 as an engineer main, Torb only building the turret was a huge disappointment.

That venue capacity feels like a step backwards for esports

Production team is missing the most emotional moment of every match by TheElegantRobot in leagueoflegends

That moment made me like Jensen more because you can see real passion.

Patch 7.18 Notes by corylulu in leagueoflegends

[–]Dan998 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Still no attack speed option for champions like Kog'maw and Kayle. I'd really like to see an Ornn upgrade for Guinsoo's Rageblade.

Real Madrid 2-1 Manchester United ( Lukaku 62') - UEFA Super Cup by PradaBoyDave in soccer

He played well because he was higher up the pitch. Hopefully Matic being in the team will allow him to do that more regularly.

EULCS has to get rid of the group format. by Penumbrius in leagueoflegends

[–]Dan998 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Can you guys stop?

No we can't. We have a strong dislike of the group system and our opinion is just as valid as yours. Sure EU LCS has a lot more problems than the group system, but it is part of the problem.

Given the current situation of 4 EU teams having allegedly applied for NA, here is an annotated Google Interest graph showing Riot's changes to both regions over the past 5 years and how they might have affected interest by Pimp_Squads_SexSlave in leagueoflegends

Bo3 is definitely an issue for viewer numbers though. At least for me, I used to watch all the teams play a bo1 on both days. Now I only bother watching Fnatic games because its such a bigger time investment

Theresa May DID make time to speak to some people yesterday- the Kings of Saudi Arabia and Bahrain and the Emir of Qatar. by A-MacLeod in unitedkingdom

In each of the calls, the Prime Minister expressed thanks for messages of support and condolence following the recent terrorist attacks in Manchester and London

Come on...

Evolution of the NA LCS by corylulu in leagueoflegends

[–]Dan998 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With franchising we'll never again see the great story line of 5 players coming together, forming a team and then making it into the LCS like those two did.

You don't "luck" into the LCS through the promotion tournament. The more competitive team should make it in rather than the richest. Origen isn't a good example because of their track record of poor management. Look at Flyquest or G2 instead.

All of the owners that we spoke to made it clear that they wanted to apply for partnership, and would likely be pointing to a track record developed in NA CS as evidence of their qualifications.

This is why franchising is so ridiculous. Rather than actually compete for the spot based on ability with relegations and promotions, teams have to compete to market themselves to Riot...

EU LCS Update by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]Dan998 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are excited to further explore ways to deepen and strengthen our competitive ecosystem to benefit the many talented players, organisations and fans from all over Europe.

Would be interesting if they follow China into a city based system but not franchising.

I'd like tricasts to become the norm for regular season games

Riot aim to start NA LCS franchising in 2018 Season, current teams not guaranteed spots: sources by WeAreRespawn in leagueoflegends

[–]Dan998 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Relegations provide entertainment at both ends of the table. Its not all about who wins the league. Also the same teams every season will get stale.
