Either that or they have found there worst players :)
50 cs average on the riot team at 25 minutes in…
Riot’s Malphite didn’t skill his ult until level 14.
So many easy kills that the riot team just basically walked away from.
And the announcers are SUPER EXCITED OMG.
Chiffy said it best to me on IM… This is like a professional wrestling version of LoL.
Maybe they’ll throw the curve ball at the end and let us know that both teams were bots all along.
Lol, AnnieBot and Cho’Gath bot ftw.

The bots are improved but the Riot team is playing like garbage.
Also this is how Phreak gets when announcing, he always gets this excited.

Who are the Riot folk? If they are designers or QA, and not intentionally throwing the game, that’s a bit sad. I would hope that both of those professions would be putting in lots of time playing the game. If its just random Riot employees like some producers and programmers or whatever, then I can understand, as they don’t really need to be playing the game to any level of skill to be good at their jobs.
Still, regardless of them playing like crap, the bots do seem improved.

Yeah they seem very good. I’m not expecting HAL 9000 AI from Riot but from briefly watching that stream, I’m impressed.
They intentionally played bad. I don’t believe for a second they are actually this bad. What’s stupid is Phreak screaming about how he never expected the bots to win.

Riot actually actively tries to avoid hiring people who aren’t active players for LoL, for all positions.
I don’t know the actual job titles of anyone who participated in the match today. I think Nikasaur is on the community relations team though.

Sorakabot was MVP, I think, followed closely by Nunu. She legitimately healed her whole team constantly.

watch about half it, but yeah, it’s fucking pathetic.

apparently some player made this unofficially.
let you watch replay of your games, only 5mb file size for a 25 minutes game.
it actually use lol to replay the game, you will just be in offline mode.
I’m taking bets how many new big tits heroes before we see an official replay system.
I’ll put my money on infinity. That said, Karma seems relatively normal, at least for a comic character (I haven’t checked her alternate costumes though). I played Katarina in a catgirl costume last night, sheesh.
Kat the cat is a funny idea, really. Karma as a geisha is rather cute though!

I think we would get dominated :D Also, I can’t commit to dates. I remember we made a Qt3 team for Left 4 Dead and did pretty well in a tourney though, so it is possible!

If we actually tried to get a team together and practiced team strategies we would get pretty far imo.
Especially if you play Corki.
