The one thing I miss about the Gangplank Announcer is

That he would call out if Dragon or Baron Nashor was slain. I'm pretty sure those sound clips exist for the original announcer, buried somewhere in the spaghetti code, so why are they not implemented?

My personal favorite, a death quote for you :

"You call that a kill?"

I miss when he would say "the tides always turn!" >3>

But yes him announcing the slaying of dragon or baron was pretty awesome.

That's what I was hoping the op was going to say they missed. I found it very, encouraging, when he'd say "the tides always turn".

Only liked that and the tides always turned out of all that he said. lol

you know, why hasn't Riot taken the opportunity to update their announcer at all in all of this time? This would be a perfect opportunity to spruce things up since they where adding in the GP voice anyways. The announcer is something that's present in every single game of league, yet we see way more attention being given to champion voice updates than anything else.

I mean, it can't be all that hard to record someone with a non imposing yet iconic voice and add in some more things for us to hear.

Why do I keep picturing Shaco when you say that?

All I heard was a Ron Perlman voice-over. That'd be a boss announcer.

they should really think about making voice packs of some kind. I'd love some variety in the announcers like other mobas have done. The vanilla one in league is okay. She gets the job done, but it's not the same to go back to hearing her standard dialogue after hearing gangplank's excited pirate speech.

The Gangplank Announcer, Butcher's Bridge, so many amazing things that we would love to have back (some might even pay money for it). Really hope they make their return.

I just miss him period, he made the game feel more like... a game. It was just way more fun.

the female announcer is possibly the least hype thing i've ever heard.

John St. John announcer when?

This is why smite has voice packs, they only effect the one person at a time, people love them, and they can fill the shop with them and no one will complain about them messing with their game.

" Theyve slaughtered the baron " was my favorite. It just imprinted this image of baron as a pig in my brain xD

they exist in the spectate mode the original announcer will say if the team slain drag/baron.
