How the f**k is "player never left the fountain" still not remakable? It shouldn't be tied to if a player connected to the game or not. Doesn't matter if they connected to the game if they never f**king leave the fountain.

yeah agreed, we'll fix this. also looking to move up the remake timer to when absence would reasonably start to impact the game, so around minions meeting in mid or something, exact time tbd

I don't feel players can actually have any confidence that Riot actually will fix these things. Obviously you are not in charge of everything but Riot 100% has made it feel like they don't care about league players at all other than as a tool to sell skins to. We've been lied to over and over about behavior systems, the client, ranked ladder changes.

It is particularly frustrating when riots other games are facing far fewer problems and even have solutions to problems league faces already implemented in them (such as individual performance scores and working clients). Granted those games are on newer code bases.

An additional point of frustration many feel is that it takes things like this getting so much attention on reddit for them to get any focus at all.

that's reasonable, confidence has to be earned, which we'll work towards by following through here. this is a pretty specific commitment so should be pretty clear cut to see if it happens or not. can't promise a specific timeline right now (it's saturday) aside from it not being next patch, but the timer work was already scheduled, and we'll look to do the extra work to make sure this feature is resilient.

I do talk with the VAL/WR teams that work in the same area my team does (competitive systems) and they've definitely been able to benefit from seeing where league has stumbled and starting fresh, but they definitely have their own challenges too. part of talking to them does involve seeing where we can take their learnings back into League, we are paying attention to areas they're doing better in

reddit's a tough one, on one hand it's only a small proportion of league's english-speaking audience, but also the folks here really f*cking care and are deeply engaged, which I value a lot, but doesn't always drive priorities because it's not the full picture.

Riot Auberaum what is your current rank in league? So many problems in high elo do you even play the game? Atleast they should hire some high elo in the department don't you think?

You can look me up if you want, my NA summoner name is Riot Auberaun.
