I know Riot cares very little about the fans and what they want, but their inability to get every region on an even playing field is a big reason why viewership has declined nearly 50 percent year to year.
I don’t care if it’s a competition and the best movie is team needs to win Yada Yada. It’s not a competition when one team wins every single time. Fix it RIOT. I demand 3200 RP for my inconvenience.
LitAF3 votesSince when is it Riot's fault that the regions arn't playing at the same levels? Misfits put up an incredible fight against SKT and gave them a run for their money.
GripaAviara2 votesSince they decided to go for regions in the first place. And no, you can make it easily technically to get a bug free regionless architecture for the system
NineTailedMystic1 votes"run for their money" does not equal kicking SKT out of #1.
zAber332 votesIn what sport is every country on an even playing field?
xtyler100x1 votesto me a lot of sports are more even than league.
zAber331 votesa lot of sports have also been around for a lot longer than 8 years, it gives it more time for skill levels to even out across the world
xtyler100x2 votesJust dont watch dude. I rarely watch for that reason alone haha
Head Connoisseur2 votesHow in the fuck is it Riot's fault that NA/EU/LMS etc players are just flat out worse at the game than their Korean counterparts? It is not Riot's job to give advantages to regions that are underperforming.
"Their inability to get every region on an even playing field...." bud, I hate to break it to you, but this is literally the most even we've ever seen SKT go in a series at worlds (against a non-korean team). If a drawn out, 5 game series against an EU team is still perpetuating the "SKT just roflstomps every team ever and no one could possibly challenge them" narrative, then you're delusional. MSF was 1 teamfight away from winning the series in 3 straight games.
GripaAviara1 votesBecause this game is not ok designed in the first place because it has region. Why does master challenger level is region locked? This means at least one pool of players will always be miles away from the other because it will act like a magnet attracting the best players that want a challenge
Head Connoisseur3 votesOh god forbid that sports have regions they play in. I've totally never seen football leagues in separate regions, or hockey, or basketball, or...wait...yes I have...
GripaAviara1 votesYeah you saw that and look how great is that for soccer. UK and Spain draining all the viewers while other regions trail behind. But at least the regional div is enticing enough, a thing you can't say about lol. You can;t compare the budgets. Also what you can't compare is the game itself, a game for robots, while soccer you need some brain above skills. That's why there a coach that actually does something . Here is all about what a robot faker can you find
LitAF3 votesDon't worry about it you'll never reach Master challenger, silver boy
GripaAviara2 votesI never wanted to invest in reaching challenger, nor i have the tallent. What's your point?
LitAF2 votesPoint proven thanks [slayer-jinx-catface]
hshtagniemehrcdu2 votesThe viewership went down, because the amount of games shown during regluar split more then doubled compared to the years before.
So, unless every veiwer watches ~twice as many games as before, OFC the amount of views per game will go down. This does **not **mean, that the amount of people watching it went down.
DarkRitual1 votesRiot isn't responsible for players and teams getting better.
Learn how things work before you make whiny threads about things you're clueless about.
