Want your replay shoutcasted?

Hiya! My name is Octavian0 (though on here its aatrocks cause aatrox rocks. Seriously, undervalued champion) and I am an aspiring shoutcaster.

For practice, I shoutcast over replays the friends and fans send in to my youtube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1btlgqKiIEj6E0s9z16O6g

If you want your replay featured in one of the episodes, you can send me an email at [email protected]

Thanks!

Do we need to send the replay too? Or do you have another method of obtaining the Replays?

I would need you to send the replay to my email - but just the replay file, you don't have to record anything or anything like that. Thats my job =]

You're pretty decent :D What you need to work on: -Champion name pronunciations (Lucian = Loo - Shen, it was arguable on release, but almost everyone says Loo - Shen now.) -Champion spell names (A lot of shoutcasters memorize the names of the spells, so that they don't sound silly when trying to remind Zilean's W's name) -The fact that you give information is nice, but it's not something you need to linger around. There are some times when you were talking about something that wasn't necessarily related to the event happening. Try to stay on topic, bud. :)

Keep practicing!

I would recommend watching some other people who shoutcast as well, such as Jump in the Pack or Protatomonster*.

Haven't looked at much yet, but it looks like you need to work on transitioning from information (Zilean is good vs assassins) to a new event (you didn't mention Lee ganking until Zilean was all but dead).

Yeah - usually the job is handled by two people, one who does information like that and the other doing action as it happens. Solocasting means that I have to cover both and sometimes it gets to be a bit of a handful. Thanks for the advice =]
