ATTN RIOT: Spoilers on E-Sports page

Riot, could you please default the e-sports home page to not showing the bracket with match spoilers on it? I was intending to watch the matches between Samsung White and Team Solo Mid today when I got up, but now that I already know the results, I suddenly feel much less motivated to spend all that time watching, and honestly it dampened the mood on the whole tournament for me. I'd been really enjoying the matches up till now because I had been getting up early for work anyways so I just shifted my schedule a bit and caught about 80% of the matches live. Not being able to share in the excitement of the first round of knockout stages because the results are right in the middle of the homepage when there's no stream on is honestly very disheartening.

Also, on the schedule, victories are automatically displayed. Can you set it to hide match outcomes by default? Simple change, one would think! (And this is from a NOC perspective, as I work in one for a living! Haha) Site downtime would be minimal if any.

I agree, Riot needs to do something about this, simply from a courtesy standpoint. Perhaps adding a 'hover over' type spoiler option to the slots on the table, or waiting for 24 hours/until the next series of matches to begin to display the results would be good options?
