I hope you could at least merge the PH, SG and TH servers and just separate the VN and TW servers because the queue times are just horrible.
This is certainly not off the table for the future. For launch we wanted to reduce the risk and try to keep the initial transition as frictionless as possible.
Hey all! Posting some updates that are coming today here for clarity:
Sorry for the confusion everyone!
UPDATE:
On behalf of the team, we wanted to thank you for all the love and excitement that we are seeing for our Ice Queen, Winterblessed Diana.
We've been collecting your feedback and after discussing it with the team we're going to be making the below changes:

After evaluating the feedback, we've made the following updates to Winterblessed Swain per your feedback:
Animation/Rigging
Model

We have received a lot of great feedback and appreciate your trying to write feedback in a way that's most helpful for us. Some suggestions either conflicted with other player feedback or with internal craft expertise, others (additional changes to his model, etc.) are out of scope for a PBE change. Thank you for taking the time to test Winterblessed Swain and sharing your feedback with us!

Nothing is changing about his AA range, this only changes his interactions with items/runes that have a ranged/melee split like Relic Shield's execute threshold. I don't think Knight's Vow has a ranged/melee split on it.
If I ran ghost and tp on toplane, then queue jungle, replace smite with tp, not with ghost
Oh good idea. We're doing similar prediction for the upcoming Rune Recommender so might be able to do this as well.
TY MR TRUEXY, COULD YOU BUFF JINX NEXT?

I had a question regarding champ diversity.
Champions that have been purposefully dissuaded from jungling such as Camille, Sylas and Twitch could see a return with the clear changes. Is the balance team still planning on barring certain champions from jungling by other balance levers if they’re a problem or is the goal to give as many champions jungling ability?
We're leaning towards being inclusive by default and then assessing champs case by case.
Things that might cause us to reduce a champ's strength in JG specifically might be because it's:
Finally, thanks, please more QoL changes
What would you like to see? Things related to champ select are primarily where my team operates in the client.
To clarify the R, it is still infinite (you can only refresh the buff up to 5s but you can do it repeatedly just like Live)
The change is that the infinite MS stacks only last 1.5s. So essentially whenever you are out of combat, it'll drop back to the baseline 10% MS.
TY MR TRUEXY, COULD YOU BUFF JINX NEXT?
Do you have some failsafe plan "IF" this won't go well because Zeri has a
past and looking at your message i realised R is kinda teh same just with a little more weakness to it - which will make her still problematic but its porbably just me on copium because I'm not sure this will help.
We do have more things we can push if needed. But essentials boils down to "what fantasies can we keep on Zeri while solving some key problems".
Shortening her range and limiting the window of her R let's us keep that "infinite MS fantasy" for now by introducing new forms of counterplay. I'd say if this "fails", then we once again need to evaluate if "infinite MS" is a supportable mechanic on a ranged carry for the standard player
What an oxymoron you can’t increase skill floor and make something easier to get into
I’ve seen skill floor used both ways
I’ve seen it be “here’s what you can accomplish when you know nothing” and I’ve seen it be “here’s how much you need to know to be useful.” For what it’s worth I like the former more than the latter.
My time has come.
Changes look great! I love the idea of dropping ult Movespeed quickly if you drop combat while still letting ult go forever.
I'm concerned about the range though. Doesn't this technically put her below 550, since skillshot range is calculated center to center while AA range is calculated edge to edge?
Yup it places her at around the 550 effective range area. Between Kai'Sa and Jhin
If I understand correctly, that means that she essentially gets bursts of MS rather than just constant increasing MS?
Essentially pans out to "ramping MS while hitting people that falls off"
Another round of Zeri changes to bring her back into viability with a (hopefully) healthier pattern.
Main changes that should contribute to improving her healthiness:
To clarify the R, it is still infinite (you can only refresh the buff up to 5s but you can do it repeatedly just like Live)
The change is that the infinite MS stacks only last 1.5s. So essentially whenever you are out of combat, it'll drop back to the baseline 10% MS.
Hopefully we can get new updates to the client this season. I have been waiting for years so the client will remember the Champion sort order. With more than 150 Champs. Having to scroll down to find the one I want to pick or ban; or having to select the sort order to "Favorites" every single time, is just so inefficient.
Hi there this is coming in 12.23!
I think these changes have good potential. I don’t have a problem with making jungle easier, getting more people into the role will probably be good for the game.
Our goal is to make jungle easier to get into and increase the skill floor, but not change the overall skill required to master the role (not that anyone has really mastered the role anyway).
We wanted to move mastery out of unintuitive mechanics that were only satisfying for a small subset of players to mastery that is more clear and satisfying (eg. choosing and optimizing your companion, more champs can jungle, etc.) and we're still keeping some of these optimizations (like camp dragging).
Features like rec jgl paths, displaying leash ranges, etc. aren't intended to allow a Gold player to become Canyon.
didn't really create cool vision plays you could make.
Wait do the walls created block vision?
Yes they do
Question! Do the ARAM terrains appear in Morde's R? I would hate to R someone and then have them just walk through the terrain that was just there a second ago
I will ask our resident QA member to check into it tomorrow.
