UK League of Legends personalities Aaron ‘Medic’ Chamberlain and Marc ‘Caedrel’ Lamont will appear on the LFL’s English-language programs.
The couple, known for both casting in the senior LEC and streaming, will be the guest cast of the English-language broadcast of the French Ligue Française de League of Legends (LFL).
It was recently announced that the LFL will be showing an English broadcast for the first time, with Canadian esports organizer Northern Arena partnering with Webedia, Riot Games and the LFL to broadcast it.
The English-language LFL streams will be broadcast from Northern Arena Twitch Channel.
Caedrel and Medic join other English-speaking casters on the LFL shows including SierraDawn, RavishingRavish, Visionzz, Beatdown, Influenya and Lisa Doan.
The LFL is one of several European Regional Leagues (ERLs) in League of Legends that are located below the LEC.
The best ERL teams qualify for the Amazon European Masters at the end of each season. Neither of these teams allows promotion to the LEC, a closed franchise league.
However, it is possible for teams to buy into the LEC in the event another existing LEC team leaves the league. Last year, for example, the BDS team acquired the LEC slot from Schalke 04 for 26.5 million euros.
The news comes as the NLC, the League of Legends European Regional League (ERL) for the UK, Ireland and Scandinavia, announced its talents for 2022. And tonight there will be another show match between the French top club Karmine Corp and the Spanish club Koi.
Two months ago, Riot Games announced important changes to the ERLs to “level up” the region and standardize its diverse ecosystem.
Both the LFL and NLC are accredited ERLs, which means they have offline events and their players are added to Riot’s Global Contract Database (GCD).
Other accredited ERLs are the Superliga (Spain), Prime League (DACH) and Ultraliga (Poland / Baltic States). The non-accredited ERLs include the PG Nationals (Italy), the Esports Balkan League, the Greek Legends League, the Elite Series (Benelux), the Hitpoint Masters (Czech Republic / Slovakia) and the Liga Portuguesa (Portugal).
The LoL Accredited ERLs in 2022 should each have € 200,000 in prize money and financial grants.
