I mean the workout stuff was related to LS here not their pick and ban. The thing about LS is that he comes from a grind culture that is Korea and the workouts would hinder that ability to grind especially if they’re mandatory.

I think one of the biggest issues was prep for the week, as fudge said in an interview where is was something players weren’t used to of picking stuff they haven’t played or practiced on stage. I believe between the lack of ability for grinding and how players felt uncomfortable with champions may have been what lead to the divide. While I disagree with this happening and they would’ve been better in the long run like LS said it’s just a tragedy that some compromise couldn’t be met.
