@RIOT: Seriously, You are Forcefeeding me Worlds Spoilers and I don't Like It

Riot, I love the game, I love the competitive scene and I'm loving watching through worlds. But I don't watch it live. And it takes me a few days before I can watch the VOD's.

You are repetitively putting pictures of the winning teams up on the client home page AS SOON as the stage is over. This is spoiling every stage for me and it sucks. And it's not like I can avoid it. It pops up when I log in. It pops up when I join a queue. It pops up when a queue dodge happens. It's unavoidable if i want to play LoL in the same time frame as the tournament.

Can you please consider being more sensitive about spoilers that I don't have the option to see or avoid in the future?

Thanks riot!

To my surprise, this is actually a reasonable and logical concern. While it doesn't particularly bother me simply because with the way my work schedule is the first thing I do is watch the VODs once I get home I can see how that can be annoying.

Why are you visiting the LoL website when of course there are going to be spoilers. It's like going to a Superbowl afterparty and getting pissed off when people talk about the game.

The Super Bowl is on a Sunday night.

Many LCS matches are on weeknights and some have started prior to many people being done with work (late afternoon).

It's not the LoL website. It's the game client. I feel that's much different. I am forced to choose between being able to watch the tournament (over a 2-3 week period) OR be able to play the game during that time if I don't want spoilers.

Sad choice =(
