The Story of Phreak

Have you ever recommended a build to your friends that is guaranteed to do tons of damage? If you answered yes, then you probably know of David “Phreak” Turley.

Phreak is one of the game’s longest serving casters, and has grown tremendously along with League of Legends. But in a lot of ways, he’s stayed true to his roots.

His love for the game has always been a driving force for the scene.

This is his story.

He gets a lot of hate but I'm glad he still sticks to it. His devotion to the game is real. Glad you guys made this.

Phreak is a god damn legend. Glad you guys covered him finally.

The KILL for Huni.
Luv you Phreak <3

[ddsuperstar]

i love how you guys give us the story on the casters and not just the gamers

[gespenstderverzweiflung]

I learned how to play the game correctly because of phreak. Back then, there were no streamers, no "META", and no proper laning. SO what he taught was, how to utilize skills. what item complements the champ best and how to cover the weaknesses.

Glad you were able to cover his story, thank you.

He's the only person that i would recognized immediately if he would say "Tons of Damage"

[brendondevilliers]

I barely watch League for the gameplay any more; I watch League for the casters.

They're just big nerds doing big (and often awkward/terribly cringey) nerd things and having fun. Absolute legends.

I was there when phreak played every single new champ as a jungler and when tri force is good on everyone even those who dont hav mana like lee sin LOL good times

[bladeknight]

Edit: who remembers nikasaur from the show of league where she talks about some art submissions

[FIFAFootballer]

To me, phreak is and will always be the face of esports

[lerbyn]

I'm pretty sure I've watched all of phreaks champions spotlights from the very start seeing the old ones made me really nostalgic

Phreak is like my older brother, the more you get to know him and the more you know how awesome he is the better, 100% himself and genuine, lives by imparting his knowledge and enabling others to know what is up and how to do it

[ryanellinger]

I really miss Jatt, especially when we talk about guys that have been there since the start. But I know that he is following his real passion now in the balance teem. Jax is op now, thanx alot jatt

The day Phreak stops doing Spotlights i'll be so sad.

[brianz]

Ah yes. My favourite caster.

Dove Freak Turkey

[faelreklaw]

He is my favourite caster and Riot employee by far. Lots of respect for him, he gave back so much.

[HenriqueRJchiki]

Legends say that to this day, Phreak still has no mana.

[Daedalus]

I love how Phreak and Kobe cast the most hype NA games like C9 vs AFS and the finals of the splits and finals of the gauntlet
