Get your happening bets in.

 

[Drkirby]

Some of league's lcs drama is really amusing. CLG has subbed out their entire team so the main players can boot camp in Korea, leaving a substitute team to finish up the NA season. This some how doesn't break any rules and highlights how pointless the last few games are.

Steam down for me.

Dondo would/ve been fined $1000 for every fountain hook during TI3.

Unsportsmanlike behavior will not be tolerated.

Sounds like real sports where teams that have a playoff spot locked up will rest the starters and play scrubs at the end of the season.

If you mean the exact same downtime that happens every Tuesday, then yes, it is definitely happening.

A team actually got fined recently because Riot deemed they hadn't taken the game seriously.

I guess I can understand if it was because of match fixing. It seemed to happen a bunch in Starcraft.

it was because of a stomp and they were stomping too hard

it was "unsportsmanlike"

Those are sports with a realistic chance of getting injuries.

no, he means double-click on it in your inventory so that it appears on the map.

Not really relevant. Resting starters in physical sports is to avoid injury and give younger less experienced players time to play. Gaming doesn't have the former issue and the prior would only be relevent at a LAN event to help them get used to playing on a big stage with an audience. It sounds like CLG decided the last few games weren't important and they would rather practice for the upcoming bigger events, so they got 5 players "off the street" to sub in so the other people could practice in Korea.

There isn't really an equivalent in physical sports because just about every game matters. I guess the closest analogy would be just not giving a shit in the 3rd/4th place match in the World Cup.

Well that did happen in the NFL regular season last year. I believe it was Denver who stomped the Titans so badly their coach said it was unsportsmanlike (I think the final score was 52-7).

I built Yasha. She's green, wind, bow, skills are green. I mean come on it's obvious right?

No, I mean pop it out in-game. You paid 150 gold, now use it.

 

[Conceptor]

Having a GabeN face should bring in the subs. Especially since emotes are site wide.

If we let it go then it didn't happen A picture was taken, and it needs to be seen.

Carpal isn't an injury?

Fatigue?

Also I've watched pro sports teams fill out there end of the season roster with guys who are not prospects, guys who have no future with the organization etc etc, basically washed up scrubs and never wases. It happens literally every season in every American sport. I'm not saying the analog is 1:1 but you guys are trying to hold video game sports to a higher standard than athletic sports which is kind of weird because you also want them to be considered equal.

 

[Ikuu]

So to avoid that, they go and train in Korea and do the exact same thing?

Well all right, so there is a limit to the comparison I admit.
