Hi GalaxySmash, any update on the emporium? I feel like it's one of the only big things that hasn't been addressed yet

No update but it has not been forgotten.

I know I asked before (sorry if it's annoying) but will sojyoo still do the concept art for "artistic midlaner" since I heard she now works on the Valorant team, if she left could you update us on who does the concept art now?

LoneWingy took it over

Hopefully someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you can still go higher than 999k essence. I've seen some other posts in the past about this and usually the answer is that the client won't show you have more than 999k but the game itself remembers.

Thats right, highest number that will display is 999K but the actual number is stored safely.

I disscussed this with the team, this was intentionally removed when we updated smite but we will likely bee adding it back.

Appreciate the indepth response as a software programmer myself, pretty cool to see how the lookup references damage values

How many champions have you converted to the modern tools of Data value vs leaving it in the spells scripts would you say?

Personally? Like four. Newer champions, like Samira, are already done in the newest way.

To be fair, this was actually one of the cleaner ways to do it back when he was released.

I'm kind of surprised this was ever the case. Option 3 is how I assumed the game worked from the start.

We didn't have software to cleanly edit JSONs with a good GUI. It was supposedly a mess but I've never looked into it.

I remember you said a year or so ago you wanted more female champs for toplane but apart from Gwen we only had Ksante, so is there still a chance for more female toplaners?

Of course!

But they are young male champs. I’m just curious what made it so important to prioritize a male champ in 12-14 range specifically?

Tween is significantly different then child or teen, just like Zoe is a different then Lux or Annie

Thank you and the riot team for this breath of fresh air in the enchanter space. I'm a long-time player and fan of enchanters in this game, and I'm also a dude! Coincidentally I'm also hispanic, and I appreciate that Milio as a resident of Ixtal is some form of representation.

I'm also gonna risk my neck in saying this personal belief, but I want to share: Milio's representation not only combats the common stereotype of "only women play enchanters", but he also combats the hispanic-media stereotype of "hispanics characters are always morally gray/ambiguous or ill-intentioned".

On the topic of alternative male enchanter explorations and other lack of representation in League, I want to bring to your attention a big quality missing from every champion in league: Eyeglasses! No champion by default wears seeing eyeglasses in League of Legends (Vayne wears sunglasses and some other few champions wear goggles), but a quick google search says 60% of all people wear eyeglas...

Glasses is definitely on our list of things we need to get to

We we’re definitely looking at encanto as one of the inspirations since it came out around when we started on this champ

Thank you so much! As long as we still get a hot enchanter male someday, I'll be happy.

I was just absolutely terrified that someone would take a look at Milio's data and go "Oh, this didn't significantly increase the rate of male supports played among the people looking for hot males, so the experiment is a failure, let's never do it again." Sometimes the way data is used within Riot has come to conclusions that I personally haven't found to be... the most objective lol.

But yeah, as long as there's still an understanding that people want a hot male enchanter, and that isn't going to be infinitely put on hold forever because of Milio, I'm happy with that. Thank you!

I think the data generally shows that most players want to play attractive, hot champions, regardless of gender :)

Nunu? Ekko?

Ekko is in his teens like 15-17, and Nunu is much younger like 8-9.

I know it's now really, really far down the line, but could we someday have a hot male pure-enchanter support? When a Rioter (I forget who or where) said Riot wanted to increase gender diversity in enchanters (who have primarily conventionally attractive female options), I was really hoping for/expecting a thirst-able male a la Rakan but without the engage part of the kit. Milio, while I'm happy he exists for the people that love him already, doesn't satisfy that given that he's a literal child.

There's still IMO very much a demand for thirst-trap male pure-enchanters, and literally zero options currently. :(

Like I said, I know it'll be way, way down the line (probably 5+ years given the champion slowdown), but it's genuinely disappointing to have so little diversity in a role I care about so much despite having played for thirteen years.

That was me that said that back in the day :). Yeah this is something we know we need, though we intentionally wanted to keep this release away from other make supports like Rakan/Taric. Understand those aren't pure enchanters, and understand we still need that space. We also realized we had no male characters in the 12-14 age range, so that felt more important to prioritize at this moment.
