I vehemently disagree and yet I appreciate the enthusiasm.

I get that it’s very strange and unorthodox but I really do think that League needs more strategic creativity to thrive. Buffing—>Nerfing—>Buffing the same champs over and over is just getting stale for me.

If you wanted to cut back on information overload I think just including substantial changes (ie Ashe W CD change) would help at least. Would be helpful to know that certain builds are non-viable because of aram balance changes. Also items that get changed (ie Heartsteel) really either need to be looked at or just removed if they can’t properly display Aram changes on them .

Now define "substantial change" in a way most people would agree with ;)

Lane swap is the best thing to happen to pro league. It’s like in football (soccer) where different teams employ different formations (4-3-3, 4-5-1, 4-4-2, etc) depending on their own personnel as well as the opponent.

Bringing more tactical variety to League is absolutely crucial for developing the competitive scene and retaining interest in the long term.

aram mains are begging for this one super easy feature pLEASE:

please, when I roll, make my benched champ unselectable by others for ~2sec. 3rd party apps already have a feature to reroll for team, this would put everyone on an even playing field

and stop locking out bench picks if you try to pick and fail, that also feels terrible

I like this one.

league has 167 champions not 168

the top search for google says 168 champions but its 167, that website that shows in top search is just playing for late game and didn't want to keep updating that article so they just write 168 lol

other than that, a good write up

I mean I legit just forgot and googled it. Rekt.

Howdy, I'll give this a think out loud:

The buffs/nerfs on ARAM are designed to put the champion in an appropriate spot for the mode. If they are going well, they generally bring everyone to "fair". Assume that this is a given, since I am not involved with balance much at all.

Ok so all champions are fair, but some have stats down and some have stats up. If we displayed that in champion select, one of the challenges is that we would need to figure out which level of disclosure we were interested in.

Highest level of disclosure is probably a little blue up arrow on their portrait if they are adjusted up for the mode and a little red down arrow if they are adjusted down for the mode. Maybe some sort of Tilde (~) or something if they have some up and some down. I further assume that if you hover them you can see those details.

One immediate challenge is information overload. Most champions have some adjustment on ARAM and this could be entirel...

ah this is probably my fault, I'll take a look at it - should be fixable, no promises though

Is your issue similar to this one? Looking into these programs may help.

https://www.reddit.com/r/LeaguePBE/comments/1c61v5g/pbe_0_fps_whenever_i_do_any_inputs_clicks_and/

If not, feel free to upload your Riot Vanguard Logs to https://support-leagueoflegends.riotgames.com/hc/en-us/requests/new and DM me the Ticket # - it helped out with some issues, so it actually is appreciated. Even if it's not Vanguard related, it can help us isolate what the issue is a lot of the time.

Vanguard isn't affecting the Ring -2/SMM level in this manner, and wouldn't be able to tamper with this step of the boot process. That being said, if you have other cases, you can escalate to me directly just to ensure anything else isn't going on related to us.

An issue like this wouldn't be related to Vanguard, but if you haven't restarted your computer in a while, it could related to an issue with your CMOS battery, since that's what powers the start-up chain.

This isn't an issue I'm really equipped to speak on since it's not related to Anti-Cheat and Vanguard, but I'd look into troubleshooting related to similar issues related with your laptop/boot sequences

Please note the Corki midscope is still in active development and you’ll see changes hit PBE frequently. We are still working to ensure he’s a viable bot laner with a niche in the roster, while using the new item adjustments similar to other caster marksmen.

yes I play in JP and it seems to work now.. though idk if thats because of reinstalling the game

It wasn’t related to the Vanguard program itself, but a server issue that affected others too. Apologies for the inconvenience here.

Hey there, we've seen some FPS drop issues with players with some versions of these programs:

Actual Multiple Monitors

DirectFolders

Desktop Taskbar Expander

MSI Afterburner

Start10/11

If you have one of these, could you try closing and seeing if its improved in a custom game?

Hey there, are you playing in the Japanese region? We had an issue there, it will be fixed now though.

Cut Down my beloved, what is happening to you

It's similar tuning to Coup De Grace but applies at full HP. This means that it's more likely to trigger in a variety of places, whether that is lane poke, burst from high HP (AOE Mages, Karthus, GP), and siege poke (Xerath, Zoe). If we don't consider Coup De Grace weak, then this likely shouldn't be either.

That's my analysis at least, but we have time to tune it if this ends up untrue.

Not where I thought that was going lol

Can I ask about if you are looking into Teleport at all?

It seems like it would be a contender for pro play-related changes. Especially for mid lane, we often see teleport negate any willingness for pros to play aggressive.

That would probably be a preseason change, but I think TP is actually quite problematic and it's not very cool how it's basically mandatory in 90% of cases in pro play for both solo lanes.

Yeah we are (or were, rather). We tried doing something for Split 2 that would reduce the necessity of teleport but weren't able to land it well enough to be ready with the time we had. Agree with most of your points here, we're primarily thinking about it in the context of normal play rather than pro though.

Did they forget unsealed spellbook?

While it is about 2x the playrate of predator, it’s still obviously out of place.

We did want to rework or replace spellbook but ended up prioritizing some clearer wins we were more confident in. Scaz tried some spicy stuff here, like an Omnistone type of change where your summoner spell cooldown would be dramatically lowered but replace your summoner spells with random ones on each use. It's something we might come back to later.

Yeah considering where complaints have been this season, I genuinely can't believe that nothing other than ADC systems gets referenced in this entire article. Hopefully there will be changes to other classes that they just didn't feel the need to signpost, but otherwise this is really disappointing.

There are, though they're smaller in scope than our ADC item and rune reworks.

can heal be looked at? it feels too weak compared to ghost or exhaust, currently it's just being used to take really good trades early for prio more than anything

We think Heal is roughly correct right now, but that Ghost is too strong. Exhaust we're trying to sharpen as a choice vs. Barrier, that part is a little more speculative though.
