Did Riot Move PTL to 4PM as Cover to Make it Tape-Delayed(Not Live Broadcast)?

PrimeTime League - Week 14

Since they moved PTL to 4PM it appears to feel different... and no longer broadcasted Live. This becomes evident in the most recent episode PTL Week 14; as for the Last Hit, they featured a Blooper Reel that included content from the current episode.

In these outtakes Kobe gave out PTL Awards; as for the award for "Best MEME" at 1:05:28, he "broke out in laughter" ("HOT PINK GG"). In the original broadcast (56Minutes) it is clean without this breakup.

Therefore, unless certain segments are live and others are not, there can be no other conclusion then that PTL is now tape delayed (recorded at 3PM for a 4PM stream).

YES I FIGURED OUT UR EVIL PLANS RIOT: YOU'RE NOT SLIPPING PAST ME NOW!

...AND as to the People who may claim "It was never live..."

Been there, Done That : Already demonstrated it as to the contrary in a previous thread of mine.

Indeed it is so...

So they moved away from a live broadcast into a pre-recorded discussion (as evident by Chobra stated that LCK finals happened "Yesterday" during the Skype conversation with Riv/Jett/Pryo/etc) Chobra's Comment

What is wrong with that? As you could see they had a ton of bloopers to choose from (even the infamous "Oh Fk" from Riv). Riv's F Bomb It's more professional and less about looking for things to post on Reddit.

I don't see anything wrong with it, besides less troll fodder.

I also think portions of it were taped and edited earlier than just today! Teemo

HEY UR SUPPOSED TO BE IN FLORIDA RIGHT NOW NOT TROLLING THREADS AGAIN! THOUGHT I GET A FEW DAYS BREAK OMG:)

Alas... the clip I referenced wasn't intended to be judgmental of the show: It was simply one of possibly many examples to prove/evidence my claim of my thread. One of the reasons I liked PTL before was the live nature of the show (which is true of any live TV programming). That is "anything can happen".

Is it less "troll fodder"? As being one myself to point things out yes perhaps. Nevertheless the show loses some of its "magic".

BTW I am in troll mode OVERRIDE apparently because I am finally getting the attention of RIOT... been getting random and logically unjustified actions against this account for the first time in ever. And what I am doing isn't anything compared to what has happened before so on so forth...

If you don't hear from me again... LoL you know why.
