With all of the emphasis Riot has been putting on the "viewer count" for major events and what not, I find it very fishy that this very oddly placed patch and downtime is occurring overtop of DreamHack.

Shortly after someone posted in the official forums about spending the time over at the tribunal (a post which got loads of upvotes), the tribunal then went down.

In effect, of course, I'm watching the viewers on all of the Dreamhack streams just skyrocket.

Fishy Riot. Fishy.

EDIT: Or I just could just be butthurt at the no PFE or Proving Grounds surprise like I thought there might be :D

Apparently, there is going to be a "big" patch on Tuesday and they're just patching in the small stuff now. We'll see if those claims are true or not. Regardless, more viewers isn't a bad thing :p

DreamHack always gets bazillions of viewers anyway.

Most people probably went outside and immediately burned to death.

*Face desk*

but anyway @ OP, I'm sure Riot "broke" their own servers and made their own game impossible to play just so that a few more people would watch their competitive events.

Lmao. I can't believe anybody would actually insinuate that that would be the case.
