BBC Three To Stream League Of Legends World Championships
British institution the BBC will stream the League of Legends World Championship starting on October 15, along with supplemental coverage.
All four days of the quarterfinals will be online at BBC Three live from Wembley, with interviews with players and fans, as well as commentary from casters Leigh "Deman" Smith and James "Stress" O'Leary.
BBC Three is also teaming up with BBC Sport's media platform usually used for live sports events.

Our Take
BBC 3's iPlayer appears to work only for those in the U.K., but it's cool to see the region's state-run media institution add eSports.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
