Fan voting is an awful way to pick All Star teams (take note, MLB).
- There are many better off tanks better than Geguri in PAC
- One of custa's supposed strengths is his communication, but that's not gonna fly so well with the language barrier
- Pine as flex tank?
- Ryujaehong has been eclipsed by a number of other supports
- Fleta is not more deserving than architect, agilities, soon, surefour, hydration, or ado
My interest in all star games is low to begin with so not putting the best of the best on the field means I may not even tune in. Small loss if there's gonna be 200k viewers, I know. -
