NA LCS, EU LCS, LPL, OR LCK should incorporate a 3v3 league

To whom this may concern

I've been playing league of a legends for quite a while now, on BOTH the NA server & the EUW server, I'm a big fan of the lane swap in SR & I also love playing the tank support jg meta BUT I've noticed a slight rise in popularity for 3v3 over the years. I remember when I first started playing Twisted Treeline some BOTS/AI's were added to games due to the lack of players using that Queue, now that isn't the case anymore.

Anyways I absolutely love how intricate the 3v3 map can be, if you have a pre-made team. Although I have seen and experienced more than one strategy which usually always revolve around the support.

-1- I've seen some ADC's take smite and start item 3307 item 2031 item 1041 OR item 1039 They would farm the JG quickly with their support & then rotate top lane to quickly clear the minions with the relic shield orbs which help increase gold income and clear speed. By that time the Altars have unlocked and the first jg camp will be respawning soon.

*2- I've seen the exact SAME concept same starting items item 3307 item 2031 item 1041 OR item 1039 BUT this time with a HYPERCARRY AD champ (Top laner) OR your typical Jungler. They grab smite and start by farming the JG quickly with their support. Then they also rotate to top lane to clear the minions with both their relic shields orbs which help increase gold income and clear speed. By that time the Altars have unlocked and the first jg camp will also respawn soon. *Favourite strategy

-3- I've also seen teams not even grab smite and simply have a ADC/Support duo top lane With your standard mage in the bot lane. (Which in my opinion doesn't work as well { I could be bias though, I am a jungle main} )

-4- Lastly if you join the Queue alone you'll often just have to play with selfish people who won't want to play along with these strategies.


My point is with the NA LCS franchising and LolEsports on the rise. Why not include a new aspect to the pro scene as a test. Last YEAR Rift Rivals was successfully introduced.

Sooo here's my suggestion A best of 3's would be exciting to see the different strategies the pros use. Teams who would participate would most likely make their Mid laners, Supports and their Junglers play but could occasionally switch out their junglers for either their ADC's or Top laners depending on which strategy is chosen or which player they feel is best suited for that game. This could also be a method of finding out the synergy of some academy players (Challenger series) with the LCS starters.

Either way I've noticed a significant drop in views since NA's franchising when it came to the regions whom haven't franchised yet; (EU LCS, LCK, LPL, and LMS) A new 3v3 tournament with some of the best players from each regions COULD actually be quite entertaining and MIGHT INCREASE views.

Please riot, LET ME KNOW what you think!
