When you get into LCS :]
Serious answer is whenever you want man. Takes a lot of time and dedication to get more than 2 viewers though.
After you get your breast implants. Jk.
Or whenever you feel like it.
start streaming when you finally reach bronze people love to laugh at fails that's is why there needs to be a spectate bronze option
do it whenever you want to do it. You can learn from good and bad players.
To help fellow summoners?
Realistically, almost never. What do you have to offer that the dozens of Master/Challenger/LCS streamers don't?
To try to hit it big and monetize your stream?
Difficult, but the earlier the better.
You can honestly stream whenever you want IMO its about how entertaining and how much of a character you are on internet. Most of the famous streamers are very funny and entertaining to watch, they are ver interactive with their viewers, and a little bit of education on the side. assuming you plan to talk and etc.
I don't really know about skill being important, but I will say this: People don't necessarily care about how good of a player you are, they usually care about how fun you are to watch. For example, if you sit in front of your screen muttering swears to yourself all game long, you won't get any viewers. If you are really quiet and just get really into the game, you aren't going to get viewers. You have to be entertaining, but not cheesy or goofy about it unless you make that your own special thing that you do (i.e. Cows wearing a cow hood whenever he streams is almost like a brand for him now). You need to be upbeat and talkative to be worth watching, because if you aren't, I'd rather just watch LCS VODs for the shout casting they do.
It also helps if you're entertaining while doing it and explain what you're doing when you're doing it and why. Just be yourself and see what happens, Let us know how it goes if you do decide to.
