Ik it's a LAN but tbh we never had a perfect LAN. There's no crowd and there were matches played from hotel rooms to adjust to the situation but kicking out a team who rightfully earned their place is the worst adjustment Riot has made thus far. If we are not going to have a perfect LAN experience might as well make it fair so the tournament has some integrity huh?
Just let the FPX games be played on an online server where the avg ping is minimal. In that way FPX players will be able to play from home and it wouldn't be unfair to the Iceland stationed team either since they will most likely have the lowest ping to the neutral server. It shouldn't be too difficult to manage either. Imo it would be a much better solution than kicking out the tournament favorites for an undeserving team! Riot always seems to make decisions that is most suitable for them but for once make a decision for the players and the community otherwise this tournament would be no fun.
