Players (Serie de TV)

Seriously look at jaronhatcher's review he created a brand new account just to 1-star review bomb the show with no reason except "its bad". Is there some sort of controversy or something like with Moon Knight?

This is a really good show in the style of Netflix's American Vandal. If you enjoy the League competitive scene you're sure to enjoy this show as well, it really looks like there was a lot of hard work put into this unique series.

This show expertly walks the line of comedy and Drama similar to American Vandal. You don't need to be a fan of League of Legends to enjoy this show, as they have a character that serves as the audience in this regard and gets things explained to him.

This is made by the creators of the amazingly funny Amercian Vandal. The series is shot in a convincingly realistic documentary style, and follows the journey of a fictional League of Legends E-sports team.

The characters are fleshed out nicely and the acting is surprisingly good. They are not generic "gamer-boy" cutouts and the main characters have their own interesting backstories and motivations.

As a result, different personalities within the team clash and create conflict in a way that feels convincing and effectively drives the story.

Humour-wise, it's not in-your-face funny, but there are quite a few good laughs in there if you're paying attention.

The show doesn't hold your hand but is watchable as a newcomer to the gaming/e-sports scene. However some familiarity with the competitive scene will help you understand some of the more subtle jokes as well as appreciate the many cameos.

I hate that this is getting so many 1-star reviews but I can understand why. It's not a very obvious show but it's absolutely worth watching if you're looking for something that's just unique and different enough to be fresh and enjoyable.

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.
