US-based LoL Commentator \u2019Froskurinn\u2019 Axed By Riot Games<\/h3>\n

Popular American streamer Indiana \u2019Froskurinn\u2019 Black has been released from her contract by LoL developer Riot Games. The 29-year-old had been a broadcaster for the LEC since early 2019, and she previously covered the highly-competitive Asian LPL.<\/p>\n

The LEC had a particularly difficult year, including a controversial partnership with Saudi Arabia. Color commentators in the LEC were harsh critics of the move, including Froskurinn. The Portland-based caster indicated that she is open to new opportunities for the 2021 season.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s unclear whether Froskurinn will remain in the League of Legends<\/a> esports scene. She has broadcasting experience in other types of games, including sim racing esports. Her approachable broadcasts, often paired up with Drakos, made her a fan favorite.<\/p>\n

While bookmaker<\/a> odds painted one picture, not everyone agreed. Suning was highly praised throughout the tournament for their superb level of play. In fact, Fnatic\u2019s Selfmade weighed in on the match-up, saying he thought Suning had it in the bag.<\/p>\n

The Mexican leg of the Six November Majors has come to an end, crowning Estral Esports as champion. It\u2019s the second win for Estral in the Mexican division of LATAM\u2019s Six Major this year. The team is often a favorite for regional Six
\nMajor betting sites.<\/p>\n

Estral had a stellar year in Rainbow Six<\/a>, finishing first in Mexico\u2019s regular season.

However, a lot can happen between now and February. It\u2019s still too early to know if Estral will make it to the Six Invitational.<\/p>\n
