Worlds - Triple Casting is Not Good

In 2013 Worlds, I believe Riot did something new. They had 3 casters taking turns to cast. I felt it was completely mechanical and disliked how unnatural it felt. I hope they don't go back to that format.

I think it would be interesting to have 4 casters for each game, but not all at the same time. More like the style that, if you watched the dota 2 world champs you might know, there was a stream for people who knew the game and a stream for newcomers.

I, being a league player, had to watch the newcomer stream and they did a great job explaining general game mechanics and champion abilities

I feel like there are times when three+ casters might be useful, and honestly if there were 10 unique casters on 10 different channels, I feel like it might be better. One caster for each player, looking into their mindset and talking about what they do in fights and such. It would be really cool, I feel, but more than 2 casters on a single page can be really annoying. Also, with the addition of multitwitch you can listen to whatever caster you want while still being able to watch all points of view!

and they need to keep casting teams together.. mixing montecristo with na/eu casters isn't as good as monte and doa.
