As my role expands to support more games at Riot, we're looking for an experienced esports leader that loves TFT to take over day to day leadership of TFT esports. The role is based in LA and will join the leadership team of the worlds largest PC strategy game!

Finally a coherent pro player who is able to rationally articulate his points on an incident in TFT and can save me 40 points writing my own donowall post
Pretty much completely agree with all of Gobo's points on the topic of Jedu's pause incident

@tettles@CompeteTFT Ah yes, let's punish players with a tournament-ending 8th place for unavoidable tech issues in an esports circuit that is held entirely online when there is readily available tool that can prevent such an issue.
A true visionary has decided to share his thoughts today.

I already made a lengthy post about it at the end of the last set. Its not going to carry TFT, tft esports is like 0.01% of playerbase, but T2 it is undoubtedly the base of the competitive scene and with an unsatisfactory T2 system nothing will matter in the long run(only like 16 players max per region are good enough to maintain their spot in t1 every set, half of those players will spend time in T2 and dealing with the frustrations of the t2 circuit if they arenโt qualifying through ladder(and even most ladder spots are only guaranteed playins and not week1 so one bad day of tft and good luck next.
I proposed an 64/128 player LCQ tournament the weekend before regionals w1 starts as a solution, with snapshot qualifications prolonging the gm/chall t2 season for another month at least and offering one more tournament on close to the final competitive patch of a set for t2 to experience. If you want more details you can find my post from the end of last set.

Can't wait to play patch 17.4 and the rest of developments for Set 17....oh wait my competitive set is already over after 1 month and 10 days on the set.
Maybe next set will have some changes to the T2 system, fingers crossed. ๐ค
@MeanMisterKien I wonder if forcing EMEA players to play on NA server ping could have any effect on the results, its surprising how often this question is relevant.. :)
