Why does Riot systematically unlist the VODs?

I'll work on finding out why videos disappear from our YT channel but I can tell you that the best viewing experience for VODs, in my opinion, is actually at lolesports.com/vods - it's a spoiler-free channel and results there include item builds and KDA.

The OP has a point about LoL Esports making it hard to watch LoL Esports

For exampe this weekend (Week One Day 1/2 for EUW and NA )... the full 5+ hour videos of the day's matches are deleted after indiviual matches are listed (1-3 days later). Furthermore I cannot find all the matches Easily on youtube.

Why does this matter? If you dont have a computer to watch the matches... like lets say ur Sony Blu-Rlay YouTube app (ur watching on a TV). Not able to search by channel... and user videos are always higher then LoL Esports ones for various reasons (search results are shit). Therefore you have to know EXACT search terms which is impossible unless you know the matchup you are looking for and the LoLology of the name of it.

In either case... it is very ineffective to watch matches outside of the official site (which doesn't have full screen mode btw although u can zoom in browser if able). Also the full 6+ hour all-in-one video doesn't exist. Furthermore if you want to watch S2, S1 or now even S3 matches esp World champion matches GL with that.

RIOT has some work to do....

Indeed it is so...

Currently Origen's match in the EU CS isn't viewable. It's only set of games that can't be watched. Is there a reason for this?

I really do not like http://na.lolesports.com/vods/. I find it clunky and confusing to use. A wrong click closes the video instantly. Very annoying. There is also no way of simply viewing a list of all matches in chronological order. This is only available if you use the league filter.

I just realized that single matches started disappearing, too (see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7wRhsMmzze8). Which is a bummer. I used to watch the matches from oldest to newest. YouTube's feature of marking matches you have already watched has really helped with this.

Now I have to actually remember which match ups I have already watched, through the clunky site, apply a league filter, scroll down and randomly click on matches until I find one that I have previously not watched. Compare that to simply bookmarking https://www.youtube.com/user/LoLChampSeries/ and clicking on a video without a "watched" marker on it.

I don't get why you are trying to force us into using your site. There are no adverts on it, you gain no advantage by funneling us through there. It just hides the videos from the general population. I don't see the point of going through a site just to be redirected to an unlisted YouTube video. It makes no sense.

tl;dr: Please re-list all of your videos again.

I agree that the VODs are spoiler-free, but what about how one typically arrive at the VODs? Well, that would be through lolesports.com, which by the way, today (10/30/16) CLEARLY highlights that SKT wins the world championship 2016 :( I really didn't want that spoiled.
