The REAL reason Locked Camera sucks

Ever play with Locked Camera (Fixed Offset) on Red Side and wonder why it feels so awful to play, while you have no problems with it on Blue Side? Well it just so turns out that Locked Camera is not actually centered relative to the game.

As you can see from these images, Yasuo needs to be positioned higher on the screen for his Q range to be properly centered. This is the position that Locked Camera is supposed to be in.

This change would be a huge QOL fix for the people who play Locked Camera in Fixed Offset. This way you could use one locked camera setting for both Blue Side and Red Side.

I made this argument 5 years ago after a great deal of frustration trying to learn to play unlocked. 5 years later...such an easy fix and it's still not fixed. Played alot of Heroes of the Storm in it's Alpha and LOVED the locked camera there. Every map is left to right and allows you to drag the screen a little while still locked on your player. IT"S SO MUCH BETTER for locked screen players. After a few years of HOTS getting a little tired and trying LoL again, but OMFG how have they NOT fixed this yet???
