All of the regular members of the LCS broadcast are included in the announcement, except for desk host James ‘Dash’ Patterson who announced he would not return to the broadcast in early January.
The announcement further states that the broadcast is changing things up for 2023 and going away from a traditional sports broadcast model.
“We’re building on that foundation this year, reinforcing our commitment to highlighting player stories through direct broadcast integrations like gameplay breakdowns, original sketches, match commentary, a new Player Profiles series, and more. At the same time, we’re empowering a fantastic roster of casters and talent to guide the action, creating spaces that showcase their unique strengths and interests in full glory,” the announcement said.
Dash is also mentioned in the announcement as it reveals that the former desk host will have his own “excursion show” with players in the league outside of the LCS Arena.
The LCS starts competition on January 26 as the new-look teams battle for a chance to play at the PNC Arena in April.
