If you talk about OGN then you have the wrong information they have very good english caster with MonteCristo and Doa.

And you need only to pay 6$ if you want watch it in higher qualities, to talk in the twitch chat and to watch the vods in twitch. But the production value is awesome and worth every cent.

I can't wait for the final match of Champions Spring 2013.

^ Oh okay, didn't know this. But the problem still remains: I cannot watch the vods and I cannot watch the stream (because of the time). And for the few matches I would maximally watch every once in a while, the 6$ per month is not worth it. I don't really get why they don't make it like basically everywhere else, be it Europe, NA or SEA.

thats because OGN isnt a riot event.

I've watched the finals of S1 and S2 tournaments and it was boring shit. People just last hit creeps(there is not even deny) till 20min then they force baron 1 team dies and it's gg.
There is no creep pulling, creep blocking, smoke ganks, teleports, use of terain, micro and such. You literally watch some guy who just walks around and right clicks on creeps when they get low. And in the mean time he can spam his spells on the enemy since LOL has infinite mana (some heroes don't even need mana they can just spam).

Keep having that DotA mentality. LoL is not DotA. Deal with it. Or keep whining. Your choice.
Personally I enjoyed watching S2 Championships especially this match:

Neither is GPL or LPL IIRC.
And still, they all are qualifiers for the Season finals, that alone should be reason enough to make it the same for all. Last season it was just horrible, because very few people knew about these teams, and if you can watch most of the leagues, but not the Korean one, how do you expect people outside from Korea to relate to the teams or root for them.

Btw, does anyone know how the Season finals are played (I mean the tournament system).

i get your point, what i wanted to say with my reply is that this is a decision made by OGN and as such is not LoL related but organization related

I hate those bespangled godamn LoL hero names. My eyes just bleeding when i see them. Honestly, a normal "race" name as main wouldn't be better, easier to memories? Like Dragon Knight or Alchemist. These are formed from normal english words. But LoL give us these Dyzeu or Heyop (just random shit, i can't memorise them, but something like this). The name giving in LoL is like the russian language. Put random letters next to another

Yea they should get names like Nortrom, Aurel Vlaicu, Raijin, Lyralei, Mangix,....

You know that all lol champion have a "professions" or second name like dota heroes ?
If you want call them Monkey King, Fallen Angel, Void Walker, Armordillo, Sinister Blade,.... you can do this and I think most player will understand what a champion you mean.

You do realize you are comparing names to titles? One does not simply call warlock his name, he is simply warlock, or alchemist. Do you even know their names?

DotA hero names are so weird that their titles are usually preferred when referring to them. And titles are not names, they do not have foreign origins, they are English, mostly.

[Miaolong]

You know, I'm fairly certain the only two DotA:Allstars heros with "normal names" are Razor and Carl, and Carl just got his name because no one could be fucked to remember Kael'Thas, the Sunstriderr.


But no, this guy has a point. LoL names are too confusing-- let's rename Ashe to Traxex and Yi to Yurnero and Annie into Ish'Kafel. That'll clear things up.
