How do I not see any comments for Doa?! DoA is one of the most amazing colour commentators for eSports as a whole. Both Hearthstone and LoL. I mean come on, how can you not love the man after this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7R6D_gJ8h4M

Seriously, that was just pure gold. I would probably die laughing with a Monte/DoA/Phreak tricast

I voted for his duo montecristo since he was absent

CosnirakJul 20, 20154 votes

I watch mostly LCK and I used to watch IPL when it was a thing. DoA is my absolute favorite caster! Sometimes when there's a pause in game I hope it's gonna be really long because then DoA gets to tell stories and ramble and it's always awesome. :D

Phreak was on fire today during the GV/T8 match.

DeathToHereticsJul 20, 20153 votes

Phreak and Kobe helped make that match just so amazing. Phreak's reaction to Move's amazing baron steal was hilarious. So were the "I love you" moments

Froskurin, by far. Most knowledgeable Caster out there, still easy to listen to as she´s not a dick about it, unlike monte....also she really seems to enjoy the games and can appreciate silly plays.

DeathToHereticsJul 20, 20154 votes

Agreed, she's great to listen to with how knowledgeable she is. Also, Monte is a dick, but he's also really knowledgeable. His dickishness is pretty funny too. I'll always remember when he was going over UoL VS SK semi's, and he said out of nowhere "Also FFS Freddy upgrade your trinket."

ArveanorJul 20, 20152 votes

Monte's not a dick... he's just realistic.. and wonderful :)

Earl EulrichJul 20, 20153 votes

ah well, sometimes he really tunnels to hard on some mistakes - without DOA to balance him out it would be really hard to listen to it from time to time...

Is why I don't bother even watching LCK if Doa isn't there. Monte is so dry without him because he only focuses on analysis and is far too critical.

Feels like Doa has to try even harder to keep thing light. Just imagine him with DeMan or Kobe.

Wait, Froskurin isn't a dick about it? Have you not followed her very long? She is 100% the LPL (and female) verison of Monte, except she talks MORE shit lol

I mean, Thorin made a chinese LPL show called "Incoming Aggression" with her, because he knows how much shit she stirs up with her very blunt opinions and tendencies to be a dick and make people mad.

I actually like her even less now because at least she spoke her mind before, despite crap talking Riot and everyone not Chinese, but now she is just a suck up because she has a caster job.

Deep Terror NamiJul 20, 20151 votes

I tried to edit in Kobe right after posting but you can't :(

ProtestantCaesarJul 20, 20152 votes

I like all of the Lol casters that I've heard, but I think Krepo's my favorite.

WheatloafJul 21, 20151 votes

Krepo is on the rise, but he still has yet to dethrone Phreak, if only because Phreak has been around (as a caster) so much longer.

ModWulf HelhammerJul 20, 20152 votes

I gotta say Phreak for just enjoyment, Jatt for his analysis

EDIT: Oh, and Riv is just awesome

There was also this one guy, he had a strong accent. He left last year, I forgot his name, but bearded and chubby. That guy was good

DeMan?

DeMan or Joe Miller? They were both great in EU, they casted fantastically together.

i just feel like phreak because its just... he says some of the stupidest sht and its so funny :D

Toa of DeathJul 20, 20152 votes

Riv, Kobe, and Phreak are my favorites. A tri-cast with those 3 are always fun.

CosnirakJul 20, 20152 votes

A fact far too rarely mentioned or appreciated! He's got a suaveness that I'm simultaneously jealous of and attracted to.

Maximum ZileanJul 20, 20152 votes

Phreak because he makes any LCS game funny. And typically makes the most hilarious jokes when someone makes a big screw up.

F for FishJul 20, 20152 votes

I was so concerned at first LOL

junglerboy16Jul 20, 20152 votes

Riv for sure. Phreak is funny, but Riv just gets the hype going in a match and is generally a better caster when it comes to what's actually going on in-game. Phreak has the best banter though.

The LexerJul 20, 20152 votes

Across both NA and EU it's hard to tell since all the EU casters are pretty good. I'd probably choose Deficio (spelling?) but out of NA I'd choose Kobe. Can't decide on the best

Side note: I hate Monte

When Doa and Monte start talking about some teoretical aspects of the league like - how can piltover customs blitz go through the river and still function properly - things like that are just priceless :D

Zair UmbrasJul 20, 20152 votes

TrinityPhreak will always be the best. Though Zirene is catching up with how Phreak hasn't looked like Sheldon Cooper in quite some time.

The LovelessJul 20, 20152 votes

Deman was a big fave of mine. Him and Joe were a good pairing. I remember this game at s2 worlds where the are far was chasing kogmaw forever and Deman just goes "kill him goddamnit"

NsquiJul 20, 20151 votes

I may be one of the only people in the League community that genuinely enjoys Monte.

Reynard the ƒoxJul 20, 20153 votes

Monte's the only one I can take seriously. He's the only one who tells it straight.

NsquiJul 20, 20152 votes

That's another reason I love him. However, he also has some of the funniest random jokes... like the Raptor Wars movie idea xD

I used to, but he is a bit of a douche these days.

NsquiJul 21, 20151 votes

That's true - but I feel like that's just him - his personality probably leads him to be like that, and I think it may be subconscious. I know that I make a lot of sarcastic and douchey remarks jokingly, and that's just how my personality is - but my friends are all used to it and understand that it's in good humor. The issue is arises when you hang out with people who aren't used to your comments and such, because they could take the remarks the wrong way and be genuinely hurt - but when you've done it for so long you don't really have an off switch. I think Monte tends to be that way.

FormulaJul 21, 20151 votes

Riot Games as a whole are largely unprofessional, and that's why I love them. They strive to put a smile on everyone's face via many things, rather than be super serious like other corporations. Maintain that standard, Rito!

KhalibusJul 23, 20151 votes

How does Kobe not even make your list? IMO he and Phreak are head and shoulders above the others....who, don't get me wrong, I also like.

Although I have to admit Riv wears a particular phrase out and I cringe every time he says "x team is getting everything they want." Still love the guy though. I'm sure it's not easy finding new ways to describe a team pushing advantages.

Also, I really miss Deman and Joe Miller. Both top tier talents.

And I know Dash isn't a caster, but he is damn good at jockying the analyst desk. He was a great acquisition. Lots of charm and quick on his feet.
