Not complaining too hard, it's just best not to sound like you're criticizing a player when your game knowledge isn't absolutely solid yet. | ||

Ya the casters general game knowledge is surprisingly decent, but individual champ/matchups is a bit lacking. I think in the future the casters should try to find the champs that are being played and do some research on builds/lane matchups before watching the games. And this game is NOT representative of jungle tf. 20 minute razor is WAY too late. | ||

Get a wriggles. He isnt as slow as the casters were making him sound because red card is actually a really good farming tool, but god, wriggles vs non wriggles, you WILL be behind. But the ganks were good, and the replay they showed at the end showed that the fail gank mid was entirely kassadins fault- go forward, get rooted, dont use any abilities, die to tower shot. | ||

Likes/Dislikes? Think of this from a production aspect, not simply just the casters. Though feedback for casters will help them. | ||

I wouldn't say that game proves TF isn't viable  . When you're playing against CLG, it just feels like everything isn't viable because CLG is OP and needs to be nerfed. Edit: I really like it. The stream didn't lag, the casters provided entertainment (I'm not looking for perfect knowledge I just want to be entertained) and the camera guy did a fairly good job of showing the important fights. I would prefer more in depth commentary ala Day[9] style though. The casters were still fine, but I like to hear some commentary about team compositions, predictions as to what a team might pick/ban and why, and the thought process behind item builds. | ||

1. This was their first cast together, so talking over each other and whatnot will get smoothed out over time. 2. The audio will be much better next week because we have swapped to Sennheiser broadcasting headsets with compression. 3. They are actually casting these games live. There is no real time to go do quick research about champion builds "before they watch the games," because they are using the 5 minute delay spectator client at the same time the games are being played. It is pre-recorded so that we can add things like the slow-mo instant replays and in the future, more production aspects. Overall I hope everyone enjoyed the stream, and look for improvements from week to week. | ||

Ya, I mean generally they were pretty good, apart from a few "wut?" moments. | ||

I guess the game knowledge is biggest thing as it was kinda distracting. Tell them to frequent TL LoL forums | ||

CLG didn't outplay them that badly. The second game looked awful cause after that dive mid they gave Ryze blue back which they had just stolen throwing away their advantage. A couple bad plays later and they're completely out of the game. CLG generally doesn't let you come back and they are one of the best at working the end game. They know when they need to split push and how to stop it from happening to them. One of the best teams at closing out games besides being overcautious at the end of game 2, although I suspect they might have just been showing off. When you're up that much global gold it should be fairly obvious that you can just attack move to their nexus. I'd like the casters to point out the cs differences and how far ahead certain lanes are during the cast. Like a 20 cs lead is significant and should be mentioned. They talked about the global gold every so often, but early game they never mentioned who was winning the lanes and how far ahead that side was. Other than some minor game knowledge mistakes they did pretty well I think. No doubt a lot better than a lot of the casters we've endured in the past, but they aren't pro players casting either. | ||
