Yep that's also valid. Players shift behavior, which can't easily be cleaned up when just looking at performance from the outside.

If you're slamming as an ADC, you don't bother counter-building Soraka. If you're losing, you may as well buy Executioner's and then you may as well finish Mortal Reminder at some point.

There's a huge problem with using "x Max" public data win rates without nuance because they only count games where players have reached enough levels to actually reach rank 5 of the ability. I spot-checked this once for Seraphine and it was somewhere between 1% and 2% win rate inflation at Support, less so for Mid/Bot.

If you want a better public data resource for that, just look at what's ranked up at champion level 5. You're much less to have the above bias and it'll be closer to the truth (though it has its own biases). Using lolalytics as an example, about as many players go 3W -> 5E (level 10 required) as go 5E by 9. This means you're heavily inflating "E-max" win rate builds because being 1 level higher biases toward being on the winning team.

E max Janna is like 50.5 and W max Janna is closer 53. I believe Janna is a completely reasonable champion in the 51.5-52 range if she's not severely MMR skewed.

It was bugged, ultimately.

It's a legit question! To be honest we weren't sure how much we should lean into a full seasonal event with gameplay and narrative content together. Would it feel too disruptive to the SR experience? In the past we've focused on doing one or the other, usually not both together (things like the Bilgewater event, Odyssey etc being outliers). Given the response to this seasons gameplay changes, and the overall player interest in more immersive storytelling, you can expect us to continue to go bigger on cohesive seasonal experiences in the future.

The program had a similar issue in VALORANT and they were able to fix it, if you could comment with your issue, it may help them fix it with League. I’ll reach out as well.

Hey there,

It looks like the program "Actual Multiple Monitors" isn't working well with Vanguard. Could you try disabling that/removing it and letting me know if performance goes back to normal?

Which isp and location?

Does using a VPN to NA fix it? Try a trial one. If this does fix it, there is some sort of filtering between the server location and your ISP.

Most of the ISPs in Alaska connect back to the US, not direct to Europe. You're probably best off on NA.

Yeah but the comment I was responding to was 4 hours ago

Absolutely! You're pretty early, I found out about game audio even being a career option in my junior year of college :) I like to help game audio folks because we are a pretty small, tight-knit group in the games industry.

Also, if it helps, I'd like to plug my blog / website here for you to read, if you're interested! It goes into detail about how I got my job 4.5 years ago. https://danielkimaudio.com/blog/2019/11/18/how-i-got-my-job

Hello Vixiara!
Here are some different tips depending on where you are in your journey as a sound designer.

If you're a complete new beginner to sound design, try downloading Reaper (you don't have to pay to use it). This is a great Digital Audio Workstation that I and many professional sound designers use at work day to day. There are lots of great tutorials on Reaper on YouTube that you can find.
Sound Design doesn't mean you have to record everything from scratch - although that's really cool if you can do that. But sometimes we don't have a lot of time to do so and that's where Sound Libraries come in.
However, they can get a little pricey, so to start, try downloading lots of free sounds from 'Royalty Free Sound Effects Archive: GameAudioGDC. Then, just grab some clips from any videogame trailers or cool gameplay footages, mute all the audio, and try your hand at placing sounds and making it sound cool.
You're also going to want to get your hands ...

Yup, I almost wanted to bring that up too, lmao. I’m sure a Sneaky/Zven bot lane would have been fire, but that might be relying a bit too much on hindsight for this particular discussion.

If you wanna go tit-for-tat then Nisqy and Licorice didn’t deserve jobs either for disrespecting their teammates and threatening the owner?

Yeah, and of course Zven is a quality player, very bright and intelligent too, but I mean… Sneaky had Zeyzal and Zven had prime Vulcan.

The problem was clearly roster construction, not Sneaky’s individual play. He was one year removed from sh*tting all over an LCK team in the World’s QF.

Boy I work American corporate, it’s a soulless existence but nobody at my company would ever think to give an ultimatum like that to our CEO and expect to get away with it.

In a vacuum, no of course not. But with context, the situation was messy, one-sided, unprofessional, and handled without proper respect to Sneaky and his contributions to the organization as the franchise GOAT.

Acquiescing to the threatening demands of Licorice and Nisqy is pathetic (as were the demands themselves, as anyone who has ever been on a team will tell you).

Hm let’s see … maybe Jack could have told his first- and second-year player that roster decisions were not theirs to make? Especially when it’s a strong-armed threat to do what they say or they’ll quit? Have you never held a job in your life? Is that why you seem so obtuse to the concept of professionalism?

Not true, since that implies the spot was up for grabs. It was not up for grabs, it was already given to Zven.

Sneaky would have had to “earn it back” (or Zven would have to lose it) which was, of course, impossible to do since Licorice and Nisqy had already told Jack that it was “him or them.”
