I can kinda understand why riot waits a week between quarters and semis most of the time because well they travel (ignoring the fact that this isn’t the case this year). What I don’t get is why they aren’t using this time to build up anticipation. I’m not saying full blown production or anything, just like get 4 caster to represent the four teams and to give you an hour each on why they think their team will win it all. Maybe on the fifth day you have them all face off like that old show with quickshot. Something that can be done entirely over zoom.
TLDR: you can take a week off from games but not from game related content.
best we can do is put the broadcasters help the art team (intern labours, popular skin suggestions or even bringing coffee) with a new 200$ gacha chroma
Wait till you need to wait 1 week for finals
That is the worst part of whole worlds
I don’t understand even if we change venues. What’s the need to have 1 week break
Cricket World Cup is going now India have match on 12th Nov. And their semi final is on 15th nov. In cricket you need to be in field for 4 hours in sunlight. It is hella tiring. And final is on 19th nov.
I actually like the idea of two semis one day then a break and then finals. We’d probably see much more competitive games with out icing the teams for a week with subpar practice at best going into finals.
Swiss was kinda aids tbh. Not only did it allow for teams to get one-off luck in draws and force a terrible final, but in worlds in general they add a ton of time between the tournament for what? The teams to rest almost three weeks in between three series? Wild. JDG had played a single series and 2 games, that’s 3 days of play time and almost 3 weeks of completely blank space… why? It’s not even a competitive tournament at that point, just random matches once a week.
Divephoria was uploaded yesterday I believe. You can check that out. :)
