This seems like a pretty massive change that a lot of people have been asking for, what does everyone think about it now that they’re actually working on doing it. I’ve noticed the trend with recent reworks that they’re pulling damage out of kits. Y’all’s thoughts?

Can't remember.. but I think it was that Spideraxe30 does screenshots for Twitter mostly not to conflict with Reddit's policy of promoting posts/comments or similar [not sure] but generally.. he mostly meant them for twitter audience. So, people, just find that comment on reddit and link it up in the post for ease of reading here
If I comment on this thread, does that take us full circle?
Can I post this comment on twitter next?
Just make sure you sign someone up to screenshot your tweet

I didn't know that subreddit existed and I don't know how to feel about it lol
Just wondering, does this mean damage is being pulled universally? Or does the skill expression statement mean that champs like Lux, Nidalee, etc that are supposed to reward combos or long shots with high damage will still be oneshot type champs?
We're likely targeting champion base durability, plus a variety of systems that we know will need adjustment.
We're not doing much direct champion pre-balance, but a lot of the work we've put in over the last few months has been aimed at understanding our balance levers so that we'll be able to react to what we see. I do expect some rougher balance for a bit after changes go live though.
I thought the experiments Riot was doing with SUPER low damage numbers to see how it affected the game were really cool. How did these experiments lead to this gameplay decision?
Edit: I just read the tweet (of the comment) so I presume you'll talk more about this in an official post. Just curious if there's any details you could share now :)

They told us that there was very likely a better version of the game worth pursuing, gave us an idea of what the specific values we're after were, and illuminated some of the areas we'd need to pay attention to in a real implementation. It was a very useful exercise.
