Let us buy Announcers

Katslayer··142 votes·5,248 views

Hey guys! I can't possibly be the only one who finds the Gangplank announcer hilarious. I love listening to him instead of the lady for a change, so here is my question... why doesn't Riot sell Announcer Packs, such as this one? I know other MOBAs like HoN have done this before, so why not LoL?

Riot, if you'd sell this stuff, I'd buy it! Certainly more interesting than chroma skins! ;)

Cheers

I would pay real money to have Phreak voice my matches. Especially if he goes crazy when someone gets a penta.

Plus the Puns of Damage that would be flying around everywhere.

I don't play often anymore, but dammit if I wouldn't play more often if I could have Phreak talking over the game. Always my favorite Rioter.

The biggest contender I'd have to match with Phreak in terms of announcer pack glory is Rucks from Bastion announcing game status over in DotA2. God I love that announcer.

I'd sell my soul if they'd make an announcer pack with Logan Cunningham! Also, great idea - I'd definitely support it, I agree it is much better than those chroma packs... <_<

I'd like for Rek Sai's screaming to get more intensive as you rack up kills toward the penta kill, but thats just me :3

Nasus smoothest voice in the league. Do it Riot.

An amazing thing would be having individual champions doing the announcements. I'd give money to hear a whole bunch of champions announcing stuff, especially Elise Syndra Sona

Sona, on game start: "..."

Sona, on First Blood: "..."

Sona, on Pentakill: "...!"

Sona, on Victory: "..."

Sona announcer exists already. Turn off announcer volume.

This. It's a little known easter egg: if you turn announcer volume all the way to zero, Sona will announce for the match.

RekSai on game start: dolphin noise RekSai on double kill: dolphin noise! RekSai on triple kill: dolphin noise!! RekSai on quadrakill: dolphin noise!!!! RekSai on pentakill: DOLPHIN NOISE!!!!!

This would be a good idea. However, I think that announcers should cost IP instead of RP.

They wouldn't sell them for IP, too much work to go into creating a voice pack.

Love the Idea, especially if they go down the lines of making champion voicepacks, i'd love to hear someone like Azir, TF, Jinx narrate the match.

First Blood: "Ok." Double kill: "Ok Ok." Triple Kill: "Ok ok okay." Quadra kill: "Ok. Ok. Okay ok." Pentakill: "Cool." Enemy Pentakill: "Not okay."

Mecha MaIphite6 votes

I just thought of a "rager" announcer.

First blood - Get rekt An ally has been slain - Your ally is a scrub You have been slain - Quit feeding You have slain an enemy - Outplayed Enemy double-quadra kill - Report this team Enemy pentakill - ff@20 Victory - gg ez Defeat - This team is trash

Can you just imagine their voices as announcers, with their personalities/accents? Oh love. <3

No. Just give us the option to switch between both of them.

And update the original one so she isn't left out by GP.

That seems rather blunt and self centered, why don't you care about what others might want?

I'm saying instead of buying them, they should be free. Understand?

You say both of them, the OP is suggesting they make more than these two and allow them to be bought yet you seem to be against the Idea despite it not being forced on you.

agree with this, why give it free, its a lot of work to make a voice pack, it seem very unfair to be freeQuinn

This is the second voice pack we got in 6 years. What makes you think they're suddenly going to develop more in a short(er) period of time?

Making a million voice packs is a waste of time, resources and funds. They can make more epic things rather than create more voice packs.

Because of customer demand and because if they sell them it won't be a waste? Why do they make Ward Skins? Why do they make Player Icons? Stop acting like Riot is just a small indie game studio that has limited resources and funds and they can't afford to take risks when creating products.

For gods sakes they made Chromas.

And any way "More epic" is a subjective statement.

Summoner Icons*

Well, they could do it if they want and possibly make it profitable, but I'd rather they focus on other things than make more voice packs.

DoTA does this and it's awesome. Jim Cunnignham, the VA who voiced Rucks in Bastion and the Transistor in Transistor, has a announcer pack for DoTA and it sounds awesome. I can say I would pay a pretty hefty sum for a Tahm Kench voice over.

There's also GLaDOS, a bunch of different heros, and Dr. Kleiner from Half Life.
