Can Clash start earlier?

I don't have a problem with starting a Tier II Clash tournament at 9 PM on a Saturday (I'm in EST), but Sunday is a little absurd. I enjoy Clash and I want to play it whenever I can, but with school the next day, I barely get sleep on Sunday nights. Our clash tourney last night finally ended at 12:30 AM, and that gives me less than 6 hours to sleep which is definitely less than I need. Again, on Saturday nights, this isn't a problem for me (and I'm assuming other people in my timezone), but Sunday is just kind of ridiculous.

I am asking Riot to please consider an earlier Clash start time on the NA server. Talking with people who are 3 hours behind me in PST, they say that it wouldn't make a difference for them, but it would be huge for EST people (I hope I'm not alone in this lol).

Be happy you even have Clash, they non stop cancel Clash on the EU servers. Are you honestly "tired" of this? I'm tired of them trying so hard to push Clash only to be cancelled.

If it is only the weekend dates then see no reason this can't start 4 hours earlier, the west coast should be out of bed by then, oh wait they have to drive home from work and eat and make dinner and watch netflix for a couple hours before they can play.

Not sure why all these game companies cater to west coast exclusively at least make it 1-2 timezones east.

I am happy that I have Clash, but I also am a track & field athlete and sleep is extremely important in recovery and muscle repair from a run earlier that day, and when I don't get enough sleep, I am very prone to injury. It's just a small change that doesn't really effect anyone on the West coast but on the East coast I think it will help quite a bit of people.

Also, when I said "A tired Summoner," I didn't mean I was fed up with Clash and the start time. I simply meant that I was sleepy tired because I was up so late the night before.

One more thing, since you were bronze last season, I can assume that you won't get much higher before Clash is finally working on EUW. This means you (Tier IV) can lock in an hour earlier then a Gold (Tier II/III, depending on teammates) like myself. I wouldn't mind if my Clash games started at 8 PM instead of 9 PM. An hour makes a huge difference. Just try to see it from my perspective since the time won't really matter for you :)
