poor dude was getting flamed when they didn't even give him anything to work with.

[stordoy]

Imagine doing your job, and people think it's so bad they deny you being a real person

[jonong]

For those who aren’t aware, WR champion spotlight videos don’t have any voiceover. This is the first time a champion spotlight is voiced, hence why it’s odd that the voice sounds very “robot-like”

[lifedeather]

I thought it was severe too all this time 😂

[E_D___]

They had to approve his work after they got it from him, they could have told uim to redo it because he didnt say Sivir right.
They just didnt care

[wastedsoul]

idk man here in SEA we pronounce Sivir like that.

[kun-zouf]

Sivir pronunciation might vary by region. I'm from Mexico and everyone pronounces Sivir the same way so for me it sounded natural but in Spanish XD

[stan]

At this point I wouldn't be surprised if we learned that the game balance was AI generated

[bryanglover]

I think we’ve all confidently mispronounced a champions name only to be roasted by our friends. I pronounced Sivir the same way as this guy way back in the day.

[aparctiasyt]

I honestly cannot blame the voice guy at all. He recieved a job, he did it and the client haven't corrected the wrong spelling of a name they made up. I feel like they might even owe him an apology.

[Temp]

I don't see a poblem of them using AI

[bebekpenuhcinta]

came for the news, the nintendogs ost got me in. subbed😂

[BHisme]

Also, "Fleet of Foot" from the AI

[olianims]

Every time I heard severe a bit of my brain dies

[barney]

Tbf we pronounce it as severe here in the Philippines

[fobinc]

I mean... Sivir is supposed to sound like severe but we kept calling her siever so it stuck.

[AishaKyes]

I did not expect the meteos clip lmaooo

[NaldoNidoking]

I thought it was strange that everybody thought it was AI. I definitely have heard people pronounce Sivir that way, as well as many champs being pronounced in strange ways, and to hark on that as the reason why it was thought to be AI was weird to me. The dude was speaking monotone, which I get is another reason, as well as the script being a little generic sounding, but no reason to jump to conclusions when your only evidence is "well, the vibe is off"

[darkgnll]

Ryscu was playing against the most human Yi main in that last part of the clip

[HellfireGFX]

I'm from the UK and have always pronounced it "severe".
