After watching Scarra and Imaqtpie's show Beyond the Rift I wanted to offer my thoughts on the organization and franchising of the lcs and challenger scene. In the show Kiwikid talked about how he doesn't really know his thoughts on the whole scene so I thought about my personal thoughts and organized them into constructive feedback. To start I would like to say I am not an expert on anything of this sort but would like to offer my thoughts. First off I think franchising is a smart move, it would create a bigger following of people for the individual teams, no one needs to worry about their team being relegated (coming from a Dignitas fan). I would also rework your "challenger series" into more of a AA league giving each franchised team a B team with which to hold tryouts and bring in new talent. Although this would leave a void where the challenger series was which could be filled by other riot hosted tournaments whether they be amateur or challenger level. Overall I think the benefits of a franchised league would far outweigh the cons and create a much larger and more dedicated LCS viewership.
