Trouble @ Riot.

If you followed the drama on HotshotGG's stream last night you probably are aware of the situation. There is a thread on the main League of legends page.

Apparently, Riot decided to change the seeding for the Dreamhack qualifiers at the last minute. Not only was this qualifier never supposed to happen, but during season 1, many changes were made without notifying teams about said changes. The most important change was the amount of circuit points needed to qualify. CLG (seed 1) now faces a top tier team (seed 8-Team EG) instead of the whatever team EG replaced (lower tier).

Riot wants their game to become a high end eSport, and with this type of shenanigans, how can anyone take them seriously ?

I would be pissed if my team put all our time in to seeding first, just to have the tournament changed at the last minute.

This is yet another reason why nobody should take this game (or others) super seriously. It's just a game...

so me, prince, chadlek, a pal and his pal doing a game. I'm on vayne, prince on cleric, we are doing good @top maggeting their Jax n shit. Well Pal's pal feds their vayne @mid so like 15 mins in we start insta dying to ganks/team fights.

I immediately say surrender plan stands asap. Pal's pal is optimistic we will still win the entire game, while I just played negative nancy.

Long story short 45 mins in Pal scores a pentakill(steal) on Twitch and we go in for the win. As we're killing the Nexus I start a surrender (which I had been doing the entire game, team fed+ks so insta die etc.). 4 votes at last go thru as we kill the Nexus.

Camera pans over to victory screen.... then switches all quick and our base explodes and we lose. Other team was like ?????????? I laughed my butt off and still am

pal's pal was so raged he didn't even stay for chat lolo

I often play with 4-5 people/premade. If we only have 4, and someone is being an asshole (Like trying to go mid on Trynd, and or stealing the blue buff from out jungler) we will get to the point of almost winning the game, and we all surrender. Some of the best NerdRage I have seen has come from this!

When $100,000.00 is on the line, people tend to take things seriously.

Yeah I guess you're right. I knew there was money involved, but not that much. If it's enough to make a living off of. Then yeah. Get super cereal about it.
So...
The whole team splits? Or 100k per person?
How many hours do you think they put into the game?

The team splits the money.

Hours Played:

If I had to make a educated guess, I'd put the hours played per person, from the start of the season at 2100~ hours.
