This is getting really old Rito. Can you actually make anyone else viable for LCS? How many times have we seen Rumble and Renekton in LCS in the past? Is it really that hard to make Darius and others competitve again?

its fine tho because riot says renekton isnt that strong late game.

so i guess its fine for renekton to win every melee matchup in the game even including some ranged champs.

balanced baby!

New week. Same or similar complaints. Plus it's Sunday: the end of the week and for some reason now it's a matter.

Making it simple: Players do not play for you. Not all teams will take risks.

No. Your comment is stupid and so is your point. Of course players in LCS are going to play to win. But its not because "all champions are viable if you can make them work." That is obviously just a PR comment. This game had a time in season 5 (the Cinderhulk meta) where a ton more champs were actually LCS viable and they took it away. The meta game is so stale...and over a course of seasons that it sucks to watch. Lacking variety is a huge problem and I don't care how much you try to sugar coat or give me the 'just shut up and face reality' talk...there is absolutely no reason why this game has to have only 4 top laners who are the 'go to picks' almost every season. Camile is a fresh breath believe it or not but why can't former top laners be competitive in LCS...and so was singed when Samsung White won.

This is about LCS which is simply for entertainment...not Solo Q which I didn't bring up at all and has nothing to do with the entertainment factor of LCS. This is about Rito not being able to use their resources to breath fresh life into their metas.

If you really want to watch unorthodox picks, then watch something that's not laughably boring/mountainey. LAN is a fun region to watch if you like diversity (with people pulling out things like darius/reksai quite often). High-end teams aren't going to risk their multi-million dollar investment on picks that may or may not work out (meta slaving saves spots). Teams from less-expensive regions on the other hand will try this stuff, a because they have less to "lose" and b because many of the players there probably play it in solo queue anyways.

I mean they made darius competitive after the juggernaut update, but he was broken as all hell and pick or ban so yeah...
