I use Skype with 4 other ppl on.
But Skype tends to slow down FPS rates quite alot on single cored machines nowdays. No lag on skype no lag ingame while using it.
Free
Easy to handle.

Response to B-Wong.
Your point is valid but someone still has to be the one to pay for the server.
Don't get me wrong this thread was not intended to be a bashing session on Vent vs TS vs Skype this was just to get everyones input that uses these systems that way the people that don't yet use the system can see what the more experienced players are using and why ....

Actually, I do use Skype.. I feel a bit like a freak now. My interwebz-speed is decent enough to handle it (15 mbit) while I'm also playing LoL. I know that you can setup vent to not be a push-to-talk, but if you do that, you might as well use skype for better quality. Aaand the issue with push-to-talk? - Sometimes, just sometimes, you need to scream "Heal!" without having to worry about the 0,1 second delay there is when you need to push alt/ctrl/whatever you prefer.
But yeah, personal preferance. I definatly see the plus with ventrillo, having used it myself a lot, but in LoL I prefer Skype

1. Skype is free. Vent is not.
2. Skype picks up every voice transfer no matter what and is a endless stream with no ping. Vent holds its own ping and at times can lag you down and with voice activation being only 90%.
3. Skype can hold a conference call for up to 100+ people without being lagged down.
Skype is used with allot of pro teams outside of LoL. Top arena teams in WoW use Skype over vent. CoD stream line teams like FeaR and Team EnvyUS use Skype over Vent or Teamspeak when playing the PC version.
Clearly my point of view is valid so just because you don't use it doesn't make it "dumb". But thank you for your input.
