What about the little extra exp supports were getting. It's not a non factor like people would think.

Open to compensation buffs in the future.

Primary reason for the strike is because of Formosa, which provides services for League. So they're putting pressure on Formosa via one of their most lucrative clients. Formosa had a complaint against them from SAG-AFTRA for:

The complaint comes after Formosa tried to “cancel” one of its struck video games shortly after the start of SAG-AFTRA’s video game strike. When they were told that was not possible, they secretly transferred the game to a shell company and sent out casting notices for “NON-UNION” talent only.

Edit: Official Riot statement on the strike:

League of Legends has nothing to do with the complaint mentioned in SAG-AFTRA’s press release. We want to be clear: since becoming a union project five years ago, League of Legends has only asked Formosa to engage with Union performers in the US and has never once suggested doing otherwise.

I think that’s kind of the point of the change. It sucks to drop a ward for your team level 1 and accidentally f**k over someone’s lane who might not have even seen it happen

It is mostly the point yes

Three themed seasons. Not ranked splits. They haven't decided on Ranked splits yet.

Oh yeah, if you don't have a desk or something in front of you then I think it might work a lot better haha. Also how do you watch TV while stitching?! I am always looking up and down but I feel like I'm always missing stuff!

I actually have one of those standing things and I HATE it! Usually I do my work on my computer and it forces me to sit way farther back than usual, it's a pain in the ass to store, and it doesn't ever really sit in a stable place that I'm used to. Though what doesn't work for me may work for you but that was just my experience with it! Is there a link or something so I can see what one of those square things are? My girlfriend works at a craft store so that where I get all my supplies but I havnt really looked outside of that for anything before.

Oh sh*t! I usually cross stitch on my couch while watching tv, so I thought it'd be nice. Plus then my cat can sit in my lap :3

Yeah something like ...

I use a hoop when I can just for convenience, helps with hand cramps from holding the fabric too. But for this one, since it was so big, it was basically covering the entire span of fabric, so on the tops and bottoms as well as the sides it wasn't feasible to use one.

I really want to invest in one of those standing/lap frame holders. I feel like it'll help with hand cramping because my hand holding the hoop always cramps.

You should check out the square PVC working frames. I swapped to one a few months back and it's been great for square projects.

Thank you so much! It takes more time, but I really don't like stretching string all over the canvas. Especially if I make a mistake and have to take it out, it makes the whole thing confusing haha

Yeah same. I try not to run more than like 5 squares, but sometimes I'm just immensely lazy T_T. Do you hoop stitch or hand stitch?

Skill Level Consistency Across Queues

They imply your ranked MMR will affect your normals MMR, I have to wonder if it goes both ways (or will they potentially even share MMR?) I doubt it but if it does then things will be quite funny

Match Balance:

Role-based matchmaking: the return

There are some cases that are just egregiously wrong, eg. a Challenger solo queue player should never be rated as a Silver in normals.

We need to find the right values for this though, because we know that different people approach different queues with different motivations and play habits.

eg. Many people play different roles, play more with friends, play "trolly champions" and we don't want to apply a broad brush across all of these different motivations. So this will take some time

Woooaahhhh the back is so neat for a full coverage! This is incredibly impressive!

A mixture

/u/RiotMeddler also wanted to ask if you would if the new thematic seasons would be part of the one canon stuff you guys talked about last year. I know gameplay stuff is (understandably) detached from story, especially in a game like league, but it seems you guys are implying that there will be more to narrative outside of new champs, which makes me excited

There'll be some lore stuff in the thematic seasons yes, and it will be part of the single canon approach we're taking.

What were you hoping for about Drakes? I expect we'll get back to them as a system at some point, they're not an immediate focus at least though

is having different theme for each ranked split like Wild Rift?
wherein a major patch for each season reset in a year would bring a different gameplay change?

We'll still be doing larger gameplay changes at the start of the year, then smaller updates throughout the year. There'll be some stuff at the start of each thematic season, but not a full season start worth of gameplay change.

You said as well each season would have its own narrative. Is this a way to bring lore and short stories back a bit?

We're looking to get some more immersion in the world, the factions, greater understanding of champion motivations etc in for sure. We'll be trying some different approaches than short stories though for it, want to find ways to get into the lore that more players will engage with

Ultimate Spellbook will be out next patch.

I'm sure all 7 people who enjoy that mode will be absolutely thrilled.

Historically at least Spellbook's been a surprisingly popular mode, both in initial play rate and lasting play rate. It doesn't get the degree of hype, or polarized opinions that URF or Arena generate, but people for previous runs at least did play a lot of it for as long as the queue was up which is pretty uncommon
