The new wave of LCS drama really shows us why we need to fix Fantasy LCS

Please fix Fantasy LCS. It's really wonky now with the new EU system, but still playable. But the system of having players represent players and not the position on their team is weird and simply bad. When I draft Inori onto my team, I want to draft P1's jungler. That jungler is Inori, but if he gets subbed out, I don't want to be screwed out of the P1 jungler's points because of roster confusion. Similarly, nobody knows what support is starting for P1 or TL, and if there is a game-day decision, then we have a problem where people lose points because they couldn't magically predict who the teams would be using. And if a team uses mid-series subs like occasionally C9, it gets even more confusing. Just make it so that a pickup technically represents the team's slot in that specific position, and we fix both the problem of a weird-looking overabundance of subs at the bottom of the team list as well as not requiring people to be 100% informed on minute-to-minute LCS team drama.

Not a bad idea at all. EU is so difficult to play around, especially if you have a full league. At the very least this could keep the sh*t-showiness down to a min. Game day decisions are making and breaking players - a mechanic that players have minimal influence over (short of dropping the pro altogether).
