Its OK To Balance Some Of The Game Around LCS
But when you dedicate everything to making the game flashy and "Fun to watch", it really ruins the whole gaming experience.
I dont know why Riot thinks that if LCS is fun to watch that they will get more viewers. The most viewers Riot would get is when the game is being played by millions like 3 years ago. Now that Riot is driving a majority of their player base away, they're not going to get the same number of viewers the next LCS.
Bring Skill back into them game rather than everyone running around one shotting people.
Bring strategy back into the game. Removing jungler unique smites just made the role more brain dead to play. Damage being too high makes it pointless to even group until someone assassinates an enemy champ in the jungle.
Its fine to balance some of the game around LCS, sure you want it to be fun and exciting to watch but thats never going to happen in a game like League. This isnt an Action First Person Shooter 1 life only game. You get to see both sides of the teams, where everyone is, what everyone is doing, League isnt going to be more entertaining with more damage. Most people only watch LCS for a few reasons:
- Twitch Chat
- Their favorite team (TSM, SKT, C9, etc)
- Or to improve their playstyle and be a better League player.
I can't think of anyone that would just sit and watch a League stream because its exciting.
Just take a few steps back. Make games longer, reduce damage dealt, fix runes, and make League fun to play again.
