Smoke the doubters – British League of Legends streamer Marc ‘Caedrel‘ LaMont will be co-streaming the Worlds 2023 final live from its venue.

The former LEC caster and Excel Esports player is one of the in-person co-streamers for the grand final, which will see South Korean powerhouse T1 face Chinese esports organisation Weibo Gaming.

He was streaming from the T1 offices and will now be at the live arena in-person for the grand final.

The final takes place this Sunday, November 19th 2023, from 2pm KST (8am GMT UK time) from the Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul, South Korea.

Caedrel added: “I wanted to take a minute to say thank you so much to T1 – saw people discussing me not being able to stream in their office during the finals and saying the wildest things, but I completely get it and I completely agree with the decision.

“It’s for my own safety and I would also feel really bad rooting against T1 for the finals in their office, so it’s better for both sides. They’ve looked after me for a month and have been so amazing in helping me every day from streaming to taking care of me as a person, I’m genuinely so grateful – it’s a tough finals to watch as a fan of League for so many years, and having watched and covered these players for so long. It’s weird to see two of your favourite teams play a Worlds finals.

“I wanted to say that whoever wins the finals this weekend I’ll be happy, very happy, but I will be rooting for TheShy and Weibo to take the title.”

Just before Worlds 2023 started, Caedrel teamed up with Ruddy Esports co-owner Regan for a rap music video about South Korean player Kang ‘TheShy’ Seung-lok, who plays for Weibo Gaming, titled ‘TheShy is back‘.

Caedrel’s streams have been very popular with the League esports community – his Worlds 2023 broadcasts have been racking up hundreds of thousands of views, with some breaking the 1m barrier. He currently has 590,000 followers on Twitch.

Caedrel joins other on-site co-streamers at the Worlds 2023 final including LS (NA), Baiano (Brazil), Ibai (also from EMEA with Caedrel), Kim Min Gyo and Lee Sang Ho (Korea), Doinb and Uzi (China) and K4sen, SHAKA and Obo (APAC/Japan).
