I dont understand Why FNC VS H2K was canceled, just move it to the other working studio instead if waiting 2 hours and then canceling.....

Edit: FNC VS H2K was canceled and moved to Tuesday (when i am working and cant watch it live) because of technical issues.......

There are several issues involved beyond player integrity, even though that is the main one.

If they had decided to move to the second theater, they would have had have to move the players, the crew, the audience, the casters and everyone else involved as well. That would take a lot of time for them to settle in, especially the audience. And if the two theaters are not the same size, and I believe the second theater is a good deal smaller than the main one, then you have the problem of who you allow to go in and who has to settle for a refund/rain check.

There's also the fact that whatever problem was causing the disruption in the first place may not have been a localized incident (as they had not found the cause of the problem at the time) and if it presented in the back-up venue as well, than the entire move would have been for nothing.

Unfortunately, these kinds of technical issues can pop up even after extensive testing before hand. It's a hazard of the business.

Thinking is too hard for Riot!

It is because of the player integrity. Imagine you have played all split and have practiced and trained hard for this match and, for most of the players, have taken a red bull or another energy drink, imagine having to wait 2 hours. Because of the delay the players wouldn't play at their highest level. It was because of the players and coaching staff of both teams, nothing Riot can do but respect their integrity.
