would have been better with Monty, DoA and Papa, I'm mean seriously, u guys couldn't really dish out some extra cash for them, would have gotten even more viewers and crazier commentaries

No Monte, DoA, or Papa Smithy.... And they only get to cast half the games in summer split because of SPOTV. THANKS RIOT! TENCENT IS THE BEST!
