Making spectating more exciting

I had an amazing idea to make watching lol esports much more entertaining - If you guys don't do this already, that is...

What if, before every game, each team told the camera controllers what their main tactic will be for that game so that way the camera can focus largely on where and possibly when that play will be.

I feel that focusing on where the play will happen before it happens could provide more content and background behind the play so the spectator can better understand and have more fun watching it unfold.

This could be a bad idea only if information gets leaked, though.

what do you think, riot?

Edit: the information doesnt have to be too specific, something along the lines of - watch mid lane when [our midlaner] hits lvl 6, or we are going to try to make plays bot lane around x minute mark etc.

Why watch 2 bruisers fight and duel in top when you can watch smite mid and jungle support walk around avoiding fights power farming? Clearly that's the more fun thing to watch

They don't actually care about viewership. They added commercials. Don't they understand our generation? There's a reason cable is going on decline in favor of other media outlets.
