British esports host Yinsu Collins and Danish League of Legends personality Broxah will appear on the LEC Spring 2023 group stage broadcast this weekend.
They will work as interviewer and analyst respectively, and are the latest guests on the European LEC, which has included the likes of British esports host Frankie Ward this season too.
Yinsu Collins made her League of Legends esports broadcast debut as part of the MSI 2022 talent line-up last year. She is known for her work in Valorant as a host and content creator, and has also worked as a journalist.
Broxah has been a player and content creator in League of Legends, and even played in the UK League of Legends scene many years ago on teams like Last Remedy and Epiphany Bolt, before going on to play for the likes of Fnatic, Team Liquid and CLG.
Now they will join the LEC broadcast for the LEC Spring 2023 group stage this weekend.
Yinsu Collins said: “My first big break in my esports journalism career was covering the LEC back in 2018. My first proper interview was with Bwipo and I was so nervous.
“So grateful for this opportunity, I feel like my journey has come full circle.”
Yinsu also told Esports News UK she is very excited and emotional about returning to do interviews.
“It’s something I chose to give up to pursue Valorant so to be given the opportunity to do that again is really surreal,” she said.
Broxah added: “It’s good to be back!”
Who will progress from the LEC Spring 2023 group stage?
The LEC Spring 2023 group stage will conclude this weekend.
Fnatic will face Mad Lions and SK will play against G2 on Saturday April 15th 2023, while Astralis will play the winner of the former and Koi will go up against the winner of the latter on Sunday April 16th.
Vitality and BDS have already progressed to the Spring 2023 playoffs, with two more teams set to join them.
G2 won the LEC Winter 2023 playoffs and have qualified for MSI London 2023.
London-based esports organisation Excel Esports have had a dismal time in the LEC in 2023, having finished bottom of the table in both the Winter Season and the Spring Season, failing to reach the group stage.
The LEC Spring 2023 playoffs will then run from April 17th to 23rd, to determine the second LEC team that will qualify for MSI.
