I wanna say something about NA LCS so far

I love how close all the teams are looking. there is not a single team where you look at them and think "these guys have 0 good parts" which is nice to see since then every team has a win condition and if it happens they can win which is cool to see. Even NV has a strong laning phase which makes it seem like if they get their stuff together as a team they can do really well. Also love how the top teams aren't as clear cut since teams like P1, Flyquest, and Echo Fox are now all also looking strong along with TSM, C9 and CLG (and yeah CLG didn't look good week 1 and they went 0-2 but they have had so far the closest games against C9 and they were against Flyquest as well who are looking really strong). Its just super interesting to see and crazy to imagine a scenario where it possibly isn't one of the big three winning it. I'm a C9/Flyquest fan but I sure as hell am loving the newer teams as well. Will be cool to see how the pro scene evolves with stuff like kha and rengo getting gutted a bit next patch and seeing how they will fair with new ww.

See, I'm actually enjoying the casters more than anything, as it seems more "balanced" now. EU without question has the best ones now that pulse is gone and deficio has gone full "dutch princess", NA seems to finally have some energy now that CaptainFlowers (my vote for potential MVP of spring) and pastrytime can balance out the constant droning of zirene/riv/jatt/phreak, and the LPL might be the most underrated broadcast of all time as froskurinn is making Pulse and Saita (the two casters who made the ridiculously entertaining 2016 challenger almost unwatchable) look top tier. Challenger's kinda a weird one as it's only been one week and Tom is kinda giving me the same "saita-vibes" as last year, but overall I can definitely say that the quality is way better.

couldn't agree more, this year every team seems to have a chance to win. Just seems like most the bot lanes need to step up. All the NA talent in the jungle has really added a lot of excitement. EU has actually seemed really hit or miss to me, also LOVE cpt flowers.
