its not impossible for a free game. how many of those users pay any money for stuff or follow the pro scene? no idea. but if every school kid in china and india gave it a try they could easily get that kind of insane userbase.

Just logged in with new spectator mode, SG Soloside playing Kayle Top is on the featured games. Double dorans into Nashors and taking every buff. Standard.

Well I wouldnt call 36% a small token amount. Also, a lot of games lately have been ending early for me when I'm still sitting on GP5's so I dont see a point between 6% CDR and 11% CDR then

It's more like 10% vs 15.6% CDR, there is a pretty big difference, and more importantly, it's more useful than MR or a little bit of AP for soraka.

So... do any TL'ers play on NA? Now that spectators up, I'd like to watch some of the better players on here if at all possible.

the cdr blues allow for you to get 10% from masteries, 15% reverie, then zeke's gets you over the cap and randuins brings you close enough to cap, you can opt for merc's, or even mobility boots (faster ward covering, better chance of escape). Its for the early game mana regen spam on ur carry/ harass. I use them to great effect.

Yeah, watching this match. Got confused by Rammus having a BF Sword, until Alistar/Blitzcrank picking them up too made me realise it's displaying Philosopher's Stone incorrectly =p

I do play on NA. I'm not very good, though I am always up for constructive criticism and advice for improvement.

Is chat broken in spec mode? I turned on the "Show [All] Chat" option but it's still not showing up.

Spec mode doesn't show ally chat at all, so maybe no one is talking in all chat.

I'm watching 5HIT play Riven right now. It was one of the featured games.

lol, yelllowpete + krepo's solo q team out of position vs enemy ashe as they retreat from drag. "If only they had a long range projectile to stop us. You know, that could possible stun one of us in our tracks and slow all others around us." lol

edit: and enemy udyr has the blue buff bug. So it looks like he has like 3 blue buffs even though he doesn't even have one lol.

There was an option in the bottom left "Interface Visibility", had to click on chat in there.

i think a really neat/useful feature would be the ability to search for games to spectate based on champion. For example, if I were to select nautilus, then the client would pull up 2-3 nautilus games within a specified elo bracket.

i think that sort of system would appeal to me more than the current featured game system.

ya. and the ability to watch players that aren't on your friends list... would make it easier to find pros without begging hotshot to approve your request.
