achilios
paperthin
doug
mika (havent heard her much)
babybay 💀💀

i am not even sure we have 3 proper duos 😭😭😭😭

I genuinely dont see a single casting "duo" on this list fit to cast a grand finals. I mean sure we miss out on brenshow and panpoc, but this is just horrendous. Most of these talents are decent, but none of them look like they are at the level to cast a finals. achilios is good, but then again we dont have that duo mannnnnnn!!!!

pansy solo casting would have brought more hype to a game than this.
Fuck it man, i would have preferred steel ranting for 24 rounds over whatever we might get.

prius, sapphire and yehty work most riot international events as observers no matter the region
CN staff will obviously be there to help with production, those are just the main observers they want for events since they are the best
tiie is newer, worked in NA for a long time and did a great job. started moving up to international events at champs 2023

most people watch watchparties anyway tbh, the fact that (imo) the only S tier casters are missing is defo gonna have an impact on main channel viewership even more. Hopefully it prompts riot to put in some more money into hiring talent

nah doug/babybay is the 2nd best from NA and achilios has been grand finals caliber for 2 years now, we'll be fine unless anybody else casts

Achilios and paperthin casting is passable. It's not the best choice, but it's not the worst either, but the overall lack of quality and variety in casting talents is heavily missing
