Listening to the LCS commentators should tell you how you've ruined this game with mobility

All they can seem to talk about is a champs mobility, or how they will be reliant on flash. How this ad doesn't have a dash so its less desirable. etc. Mind numbing.

A somewhat likely Idea of what Riots system is:

  1. If we begin losing money because of a problem, use the specific solution built for it, that we have planned in the infinite files, for the certain problem.
  2. You are to never solve a problem if statistics show we have made profit because of the problem instead.
  3. If the player base wants a solution to that problem, do not give attention nor interact with said players.
  4. If a champion has a problem but solving that problem will bring up another problem, stall with a slutty or badass skin.
  5. If statistics show that having a reoccurring problem exist gains more money off of the paying player base, let that problem exist for as long as possible without changing it. This is my theory, based on personal experience.

It's more that the lack of mobility isn't compensated enough.

But yea, it's pretty disgusting.

When Doublelift got caught in the jungle, playing as Jinx, in the CLG VS Coast game yesterday.

"This is the problem with those ADC without dash. If Morgana is not around to black shield, they are screwed."

So really? Lacking mobility is now a problem. Great resume of the current fucked mobility meta.

Or they talk about how Kalista can do 2k damage to the Baron with her Rend.

The weird thing about mobility is that most non mobile champions arent compensated. But if anyone is like "hey we should buff them to be better than mobile champions stat wise!" everyone is just like "but that would mean the mobile champion could lose a 1v1 so its not balanced.

Dudes, listening to the Riot commentators was the problem. Nothing is more frustrating than hearing a guy who is not in the lcs try to talk about the strategies, item selections, objective prioritizations, and champion prorities that players in the LCS are making. It is abysmally awful trying to listen to any single one of them talk about how they're making mistakes with full vision of the map and no investment in the outcome of the game.

TL;DR: don't listen to the commentators.
