@
princeofcarthage I am sorry if it felt it was rude, but I actually read your post and we had a discussion about it, your points are valid
Ok, but yes just reply with something then.
but I also have exactly conflicting arguments from other top player
Quite curious who these would be and what they would have to say, so why not share it? Imo most top team players would agree that a full combo counter pick is a huge advantage. What could be, is that some top teams who currently have an advantage (lower elo while similar skill compared to other top teams), would disagree this time
So I decided to stick with the rules, and see how things work out and optimize for the future tournaments if needed. Also I think it is kind of bad thing to change rules 2 days before tournament.
I get that it would be uneasy to change a lot, so short before the tourney. So yes take it into account for the future. On the other hand though, alternating pick happens from game 2 as well, so changing that to always wouldnt matter that much imo ^^
