Nyroth
As the factions prepare for their explorations of the new continent, Nyroth, conflict was inevitable. Having already faced the lawless pirates without success, Ionia now focuses its attention to the dark forces of the undead: Ionia shall face The Shadow Isles. Meanwhile, The Freljord wishes to test how buoyant the ships of Bilgewater are when they hit ice: the Freljord shall face Bilgewater.
They will battle it out here, with the winners winners taking home BoP points at the expense of the losers. Unfortunately the spectator mode is still having issues and so we are unable to stream the featured matches for another weekend. If, in the unlikely scenario, Riot manages to fix the spectator mode, we shall hurriedly rush to get the stream up and running and inform you of it (fingers crossed guys).
September 6 and 7 Featured Matches Schedule
Matches will be streamed at twitch.tv/LeagueFactions.

We ask that all players (including subs) show up 10 minutes before the scheduled start time to allow us to set up the game lobby. Anyone who is not listed but would like to play in a match simply be in the factions chat on league at the start time and if we end up needing any spots to be filled (which we usually do) we will ask for players there. Invites to games will be sent out by either 501st Big Mike or Sgt Porkchop.
I spectated a game yesterday and everything worked fine, so Spectator mode might work. Might being a key word there :)
