Original Post — Direct link

A few games ago, I was playing TFT (normals) when I matched with a rioter (QuesoKing). Throughout the game, we were talking back and forth about his job (data analytics), as well as general balancing things. After the game, he added me as a friend and just said "check your rp". This honestly made my day, and after looking his name up, the only thing I found about him was this same thing 5 years ago. Just wanted to post this to show some appreciation, as I have only had positive interactions with rioters in the past.

From what i can gather rioters have a monthly (or weekly, i don't remember) amount of RP that they are allowed to gift or giveaway on streams

It's an annual amount called the Riot Pls Gifting Fund. :D

So, is the amount different for everyone? If so, what determines how much a rioter can give away?

It's the same for everyone. 40k I believe per year.

Hey, unrelated but I just wanted to say how great the behind the scenes Spirit Blossom posts have been, you do a great job putting them together!

Thank you! There are two more coming up! We'll be diving deeper into the two videos (The Path, An Ionian Myth and Kin of the Stained Blade) and the sound design done for the skins. Really excited to have those two come out! It's been a long journey and I'm honored to tell the devs' stories.

Since everybody is talking about it, after 2 and a half years of playing the game, I played my first game with a Rioter called ARedHerring a few days ago. Me and him carried as Camille Top & him using Kha'Zix Jungle. Even if we smashed the enemy Darius Top (0/4) he ended up 12/8 and nearly carried, but in the end we won through my splitpushing and his picks :)

I'm sorry you had to experience my jungle.

Rioters play ranked and are in D4? Huge conflict of interest here. “That fiddles just one shot me” “Nerfed”

That is really cool that you met a rioter in game. I did not know they queue up for games. I wonder what rank some of them are.

Of those that play League, we have roughly the same distribution as the regular playerbase but it's more weighted toward higher ranks due to the playtest teams and the fact that Rioters are disproportionately more likely to invest time in our games

Who would you say is the most skilled or highest ranking Rioter? If you can't answer this question because of privacy reasons I understand.

Also, shoutout to Riot Redbeard who I matched against top lane. He's a really cool guy, a good Sett player too. I introduced him to our One True Kraken Priestess, and unfortunately he was not in motion and caught The Slapp.

Question: Are there any rioters playing on eune? I've never seen one in my 7 yrs of playing :))

I know of at least two, but most Rioters who could play on EUNE play on EUW or TR. Sorry friend. :(
