Riot Doesn’t Realize

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.

Since 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.

How 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.

The 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.

Riot isn't responsible for players and teams getting better.

Learn how things work before you make whiny threads about things you're clueless about.
