Ignore the poor reviews. This show really provided a great 1st quarter. The characters are believable and relateable. Particularly Org for me, as an introvert gamer. Although I don't play LOL and was hard to keep up with some of the terms, the core story was universal and strong. Friendship, Family & Passion. Can't wait for the rest of it.

I am no gamer, Never even played league of legends once in my life but this show is so good, I feel like it might be a positive boost to the gaming industry! The plot, story, suspense, comedy have been mixed all together so well, it's like watching a reality show but way better!

Edit (after episode 8): This show started off as a great concept that was well done and has evolved into a surprisingly compelling and realistic show (while still being funny). You know a show is well done when you're sitting there rooting for players that aren't even real. They really are knocking this show out of the park and I can't sing its praises enough.

I hopped on here after watching the show so far expecting to see a high score considering how much I enjoyed it, only to be surprised that it has gotten terrible reviews. Click on the score and check out the age demographics of the reviews and it makes a little more sense.. It seems like the primary demographic for this age group is enjoying the show while older viewers are absolutely trashing it.

Is the show perfect? No, but when is a mockumentary perfect? It has the same feel as American Vandal (sort of over the top using the documentary style to tell a fun story) using the setting of the LCS as the backdrop.

I can't speak to what the show is like for those who haven't watched the LCS/professional league but its a funny show that touches on what the scene is like now with a great dose of nostalgia for the wild west era of esports.

It's meant to be a silly series about pro league of legends players and i am not really a league fan so i dismissed it but then i watched it cause It seemed to be trending and i was curious and even though it has moments of absurd silliness, it's so real. The plotline, the writing, the camera work, the audio when the camera enters a documentary style setting. This was truly a directorial masterpiece. The acting leaves something to be desired but everything else about this series was masterful in my opinion.

I'm a huge longtime fan of e-Sports in general and I've played League of Legends so I might have a stronger connection to this particular genre but the over the top dialog and making fun of the way some professional players and CEO's live and act was parody 101. The organization itself "Fugitive Gaming" is a parody of teams like Team SoloMid and FaZe Clan, with the internal conflicks and drama on full display through a mockumentary-style direction which I thought was a great avenue to showcase an underappreciated yet still growing sport.
