It's not the same watching someone stream, because the fact that they're playing at the same time limits the amount of analysis they can do, and colors their perspective. Casting over FPVOD or replay after the fact allows a much deeper analysis, and a very different level of insight.
I'm not going to hold my breath for it though, because streaming appeals to a much wider audience and probably generates more money. if anyone should do it, it's probably you.
Seconded.

Darius that he beat in lane got back in the game and is on a streak at least. Stupid op champ. The enemy team just looks so easy in teamfights with Karthus and Darius. What's also hilarious is how Diana jumps into Karthus, getting the killing blow, but then Karthus' passive pops, he lays down a wall, and almost kills Diana before she can get out. I think it's fair to say that Karthus has a stronger late game when flash isn't accounted for.

He also admits he plays way different (ie more aggressive, possibly buying damage and forgoing a ward) in soloq than he would during a real (pro) game. He plays it for fun, a luxury he should be able to have since he's not on a team.

hahaha I just used that spectate anyone thing to watch a game where SivHD and ImSoFresh were getting ghosted
they ace the other team and get triple killed by baron (Lol!) after which the other team takes free baron and pushes pretty hard, starts going on about how they should take notes and they had fun owning Fresh in mid lane (he was Xerath vs an Eve who was endgame with a sheen, mob boots, and GA wtf)
then they (the ghosters) get raped in three consecutive teamfights and destroyed
suddenly it's "ggwp" again
eating your words ftw?

Are CLG and TSM scrimming on tourney realm? Can't even see the results in their match history.

Granted, some games he actually vs people who DO camp top lane lol. Like the one game with jungle shen where he was kayle vs singed. Shen was top like for half the game and even sat in his bush, got a pink ward for top lane, etc.
But yeah, WoD does complain about getting camped a LOT, even when he clearly isn't being camped, he's just getting ganked from time to time after a jungle clear, or if enemy jungler ganks mid and fails then goes top. (which sometimes he doesn't notice due to explaining stuff for stream chat while playing).

So more or less the same thing as Saint. k, so riot marketing is succesfully co-opting streamers. Got it.

Mucking around on the PBE, I know it's unreasonable to expect to do it in a real game, but a fully built Ryze is absolutely HILARIOUS. Musamana + Seraphim + Tear of the Goddess + Iceborn Gauntlet + Rod of the Ages + Furor Enchant Sorcboots.
You can't run, you can't hide. Ryze is going to find you and hit you with 700+ damage Q's, 700+ W's and 200+300 damage autoattacks, which slow you, and speed him up.

It takes soooooo long to stack both Muramana and Seraphim. X(

By the way. Playing PBE has made me so upset about the real LoL. If the servers weren't totally bad half the time, and matchmaking wasn't ridiculous, I wouldn't play anything else.
Oh hey, I feel like playing Nautilus, Astronaut skin? NPNP. Officer Caitlyn? NPNP. I get that Riot makes its money that way, but I feel like I would have paid $60 upfront for LoL (especially if they had the WoW-like 10 day passes to get you hooked) and been much happier then the "god damn should I get a 5th runepage or lulu" bs I do now.

Iceborn Gauntlet is easily becoming one of my favorite new items. Building it on someone like Malphite is crazy. Especially in the jungle, the bonus slow is extra nice. Overall a fun item to build.

I'm not getting much out of these repeated phrases like condescend to x or confirmed on saint's stream.
