Sorry Rito... but the offset camera is a lazy solution

Or, I dunno, we can just have an option to just flip the camera screen from purple side to be like blue side

Not at all. This is more like an extra camera. I heard you can make one like this in Dota only using in game commands :o Also the map is not ready for a camera flip. It's a bit strange when you do it, some textures are missing. You can find some videos on Youtube. ^^

I don't know, I think it would be more helpful to just see things from 1 side. I remember 1 person tell me they had never played on the blue side once after bots. And we were on the purple side in Dominion. 0_0,

That only looks mostly disorientating. Regardless of whether or not it's a good solution, I'm glad they implemented the per-side offset. At the end of the day it's still better than nothing.

Don't see how it looks disorientating. But well, takes a bit of time to get used to it. Still I managed to adapt to this one, but can't get used to the free cam :( For me the offset and nothing ended up being the same thing. Oh... for some reason the semi locked cam makes you feel like your ping is smaller than it actually is. Don't know why but playing locked or free cam makes me feel my ping a lot more (I have usually 190~200).

In that same reddit thread riot said they are aware of it. This is just a small help for the people who use locked camera.

True but the first request for this kind of camera that was strongly supported by players is almost 2 years old. Some months later LoLCamera was released and it took ages for Riot to officialy say anything about it. Some Rioters said this was a dream camera long ago too... but till now nothing..
