the NA championship was on a few weeks ago, and it was good for me, since i work nights at a bar on weekends. It would mean a lot to me if i could watch it while"working"

Probably won't be not just yet. World Championships might get lucky and be on but other than that most likely not.

i kinda doubt it. They had a HOTS tournament on ESPN 3 one time and everyone flipped out

The HOTS one was on ESPN 2 (which is on every TV set) and it got mixed reactions, the DOTA 2 one was on ESPN 3 (which is an online service) and got everyone to flip out.

I don't get it either.

Maybe because the HOTS one gave out scholarships, but I dunno.

also because HOTS championship was in america. Worlds will be in europe, so idk

I hope so. I hope that one day, I can sit in a bar like in that one Buffalo Wild Wings commercial and watch LCS on the side like that one guy watching Taekwondo. That commercial always confused me.

Honestly I don't see it happening because the ESPN Network president said that they only do sports and "Gaming" is not a sport. But there is a rumor that it might actually start soon. If Riot can make more money then they already are ESPN might start showing it.

the NA championships were on it, and i missed it because i had other things going on. they even had interviews with the winners.

I didnt see it on ESPN. But I was watching Sportscenter that night and I saw the interview. But I feel like ESPN should make a gaming channel.

Likely, I remember ESPN was trying to hire people knowledgeable about League.

Well it depends on the station. They ask for hefty prices. I doubt riot wants to any ways. The generation that watches lcs is normally getting it through twitch or YouTube, putting it on ESPN won't be as high
