LEC will implement pre-recorded drafting for the Regular Season of Spring.
To reduce the transition times from game to game, LEC decides to implement pre-recorded drafting.

The new pre-recorded draft system (b/p) is interesting, but its impact on existing processes is unclear. For example, capturing player reactions in real-time might be difficult, potentially affecting the fan experience.
Besides, does this format also allow teams more time to strategize before the game itself? In live drafts, this window is usually just a few minutes. It'd be interesting to see how long it becomes with pre-recording and how LEC sets the rule for this window.
One concern is the loss of excitement. In live drafts, last-second unexcepted champion picks can surprise everyone - fans, casters, and the opposing team. Pre-recording might dampen that element.
However, new implementations can bring unexpected benefits! I'm excited to see how this system works and how it impacts the overall game experience.
