Shoutout to the producers/casters
Given the recent unpleasantness with Dota2's e-sports division, I thought I'd take a moment to recognize what a great job the producers and casters do with the LCS. It's great that we have people hosting, casting, and analyzing who know League of Legends and the people who play it. Everyone brings an amazing professionalism to every show that we've been taking for granted. In this, LCS tends to be the exception, not the rule.
The shoutcasters bring intelligence and humor to every game they cast. They always seem to know exactly what to say to evoke a response from the audience or get the best interview out of a player. The production value has gotten consistently better and better, and it really shows that everyone works hard, knows their job, and is ready to bust their ass to give us a good show. They are as integral to the LCS as the players are.
So to everyone who has worked so hard at making the LCS what it is today, thank you. We've taken you for granted, but I don't know how many people realize just how many cuts above other e-sports you guys are.
