Allright people, it is finally here! The big tournament all e-sports fans have all been waiting for! The League of Legends World Championship Season 3 which is hosted in the Los Angeles, USA and the finals will be played in the Staples Center. I heard that the tickets to seeing the finals were sold out within the hour of releasing them, which is just incredible! It is awesome that the e-sports scene is becoming so big, really hope that I soon can watch the games on my local station and hope that helps it reach an even broader audience.
I am sitting watching the stream right now, and I gotta say that I love the production value of it. Being a sports fan and an american football player, I watch the NFL a lot, and the production value there and all the content around the games themselves is stunning. Well, it seems Riot has learned something here, and I think it is a good thing. Do something that works, no need to fix it! :)
If you don't know where to watch the games, here you can find a free stream of the World Championship Season 3 tournament:

We have already had a good first round of games from the Group A. I loved to watch LoveLin playing Lee Sin jungle against SKT1. These Chinese teams are just so crazy aggressive, and it makes for a lot of fun games to watch! If they continue this playstyle (they were somewhat weak against Team Solo Mid) and keep getting the better part of trades and gambles, this could go a long way.
I am waiting for group B to start now, and have already put up a betting tip for one of the games. I will definitaley be betting a lot on this tournament. Check out my Samsung Galaxy Ozone vs Team Vulcun betting tips if the game hasnt already started when you read this. I will get up some more tips for day 2 for sure, so keep checking back if you are interested in betting on esports.
