Riot was in desperate need of something to make Pro LOL exiting again! The regional tournaments have become one sided and the international tournaments are a complete disaster. Fans wanted something different, competitive, and exiting... I think RIOT has accomplished that with RIFT RIVALS!

Finally, a tournament that won't let Korea take a dump on the rest of the field. I honestly feel that, for the first time in a LONG time, anything is possible. NA against EU is going to be fun to watch. Haven't been able to say that a lot through the last few splits/tournaments.

Thank you RIOT. You heard the fans and you made a progressive move! I'm aware that it really doesn't mean anything, but it means something to me as someone who has become bored with the predictability of the League.

the best team wins, how is that not competitive? also Korea doesn ''dump'' on everyone can we stop generalising that it is SKT and only SKT the others are good but have all been beaten, SKT is the only true ''super team'' and tis down to kKoma and staff more than his players, there just extensions of his directions and stratergies, not taking anything away form the players they are of course the best in there respective positions but without kKoma's stratergies and staff they wouldnt look like this at all.

i dont like NA vs EU because its not going to improve either region, we need to face the tougher more unique stratergy opponents to push forward, i'd of prefered (this is NA included here) to have a ''west sea grand international'' that includes all the wild card regions at least we'd have variety.

i also want

  • friendlies vs Korea/China/Thawain in a Bo5 format.
  • un-official world cup belt ''challenges'' which are riot sanctioned and you get a televised 1 off Bo5.

i just want to be able to practice Vs the BEST region not NA. the same for NA i want them to fight the BEST not EU, even though generally internationally EU does do better.
