Where to find the best games to watch?

I don't always have the time to watch LCS. In fact, I usually don't have time at all for it. But during the week, if I can, I like to be able to find one or two of the most entertaining games.

Problem is, of course, I don't know what those games are. I remember when Riot used to mark those themselves, which was perfect for me. I'm not sure why they stopped that. But now I look at the list of games and think, "I could spend some of my limited free time trying to hunt down the really exciting/skillful/close/newmeta/insert-adjective-here games. But I'll probably just wind up watching a really standard game." And then I end up not bothering.

Does anyone know of any official or unofficial list of some of the best LCS games of each week? I usually watch NA, mostly because of the casters, but any League would be good, I guess.

I've found the recommendations of the LoL VoD subreddit to be quite good. For the LCS games at least they run polls on which games are the most worth watching.

And then just scroll down to the 'Recommended Games' link below the VoD links. From this Saturday for example the TSM/Gravity's game's the one with the most votes by a large margin and it's certainly worth a look.

If you are okay with watching EU, then you absolutely NEED to watch the UoL vs Fnatic game. Easily the best game all split.

Well a few of the most entertaining games I remember are UOL vs FNC week 8 (best LCS game I've ever seen), TSM vs GV week 8, TSM vs CLG week 4, and TSM vs TL week 5. Even if you don't like EU, I still highly recommend watching the UOL vs FNC game. It had almost everything I ever wanted in an LCS game.
