Please show stats instead of tweets during the game

I find the tweets that pop up over the item area during the game very distracting. While I like the reactions to the twitter questions between the games, that is during the "decompression" time where the casual tweets are more appropriate. During the game, however, I feel that it is more appropriate to show relevant stats instead of casual reactions to the game. Especially since it is covering up information about the game, I would want the contents to be more important than what it is covering up. People who are interested in the community reactions can interact directly with each other through the stream chat or twitter itself.

Yeah I agree. I hate seeing tweets as is, but I understand during like post-game discussion it's a fun thing to see. During the game though, I could care less. Do I really care what some random person has to say during this game? No. Do I care how frequently Dyrus wins on the champ he is playing, or his KDA on that champ? Yes, that is relevant information to what I am watching. And random tweet isn't going to get us that.

I think Riot is still learning how to do this whole casting thing, I mean heck, they've improved since last year. Hopefully this will be a feature they improve on too.

I personally like it. It's not like they show the tweet for too long anyways to really make it that distracting i mean it only on there for like 15 sec and the times they show tweets nothing really too big is showing up or happening anyways so they time them pretty well and I do not think they are a problem at all.
