League of Legends Dev Tracker

It was a mixed bag to me but overall positive.

All the mentions of being data driven is the exact opposite of what I wanted to hear. Especially in regards to changing broadcast times and dates to reach the maximum number of people. Will changing broadcast dates and times for the millionth time increase viewership by like 10%? Probably, I'm sure the data is correct on that. However, if you make a compelling product and advertise the league well, people will come to watch regardless. The amount of times that the LCS has changed its broadcast time, broadcast dates, format etc. over the last handful of years is laughable.

However, hearing her draw comparisons with the MLS and its youth development systems was exactly what I wanted to hear. It's by far the best North American sports league to look toward. The two leagues face very similar challenges: weak leagues in a global sport, smaller playerbase, but both have an ability to attract foreign talent.

Great show, thanks for joining /u/jackfelling. It might be too late to implement at this point (I didn't think of it during your previous feedback thread), but if you were looking for feedback from fans have you considered having a QR code and link (emphasis on "and") shown on broadcast that takes people to a survey to gauge interest on different ideas or get a sentiment on other feelings about the LCS? Something like one of the slides during ad breaks like you'd see for the Grubhub deal or the Mastercard deal. I've gotten survey pop-ups in the client relating to the game before and that's neat, so having an open survey shown like during finals where there's the most eyes watching could bring more feedback than you'd normally see only on Reddit or Twitter (probably also more trolls). Even as a trial run for the open survey link, sample questions could be about what people think about the live comms, or players being involved on the broadcast, or quality...

Dang I missed the Jackie Episode flying back from vegas! Had a couple topic ideas I really wanted to bring on the show that always seem to be ignored when talking LCS (though jackie has briefly mentioned it in AMAs, she has been great imo so far.)

But really want to get into the LCS branching out of the boring LCS studio and trying to make connections to younger audiences across the country in something like a homestand.

Looking more into local development, I've come to the conclusion that amateur leagues may have the ability to revive League in NA.

Unlike Solo Q, amateur leagues puts you face to face with real people instead of 9 faceless figures across a screen. Toxicity within a team will more than likely be shut down immediately by staff, and behavioral issues if not solved with simply be removed. A team setting also promotes learning and growth mindsets, instead of the mindless, spin the slot machine hypnosis that soloq causes. I've personally found that amateur leagues are a far better and rewarding experience than soloq.

If Riot can support programs at the high school level and promote collegiate, as well as foster and advertise independent tournaments and leagues it would be a very positive change for the region.

Big fan of Jackie, props to her for coming on. She's got an amazing resume and it already looks like she's bringing some great ideas to the LCS. Looking forward to 2023.

They speedran the development. They did it in something like 6 months as I recall. They were only able to do that by reusing league assets.

The reason for the speedrun was people were unsure about the longevity of the genre. They wanted to get in on the hype before it died down, and they didn't want to dump resources into a game they weren't sure was going to last long.

It took me much longer than I’d like to admit to realize it was you Quickshot and not just another random person who wrote this comment. Absolutely love to see the community engagement.

On a separate note; can you PLEASE tell me where you got that beautiful purple suit you wore a few weeks ago? I have a mighty need.

I just wanted to say there was a small part of your cast today that I really appreciated and I think exemplified the experience you bring to the desk.

The technical difficulties made watching and casting difficult and I believe Rogue had Kaiser semi trapped after killing unforgiven under the bot turret (definitely could be remembering the play wrong but it doesn’t matter), and you commentated the mini map for us because we couldn’t see it.

It wasn’t a crazy hype moment, it wasn’t something that will end up on any highlight reels, but I thought it was an example of a master continually perfecting their craft.

Thank you and here’s to many more years watching you cast!
