What about uptime at max stacks? Or both: uptime at max stacks + healing done so that it's easier to tell how often you're fully stacking Conqueror and getting its power along with how much you're pushing your advantage at max stacks with the healing from it.

Uptime at max stacks might be a decent alternate stack to track.

Sudden Impact also only gives you stats (lethality and mpen) and it still shows damage.

Pen is far easier to calculate since it's just a % increase/decrease in damage that is the same for every spell/auto attack of the same damage type.

Riot already said this is near impossible to add because of just how many forms of damage scale off of its Adaptive force. It’s not just a simple “full conq damage - damage”, because then you’d also need to account for damage levels at each individual stack.

This. I would REALLY like for this to be damage rather than healing as well but because it's based off adaptive it's not really possible without the cost being high.

Every damage calculation would need to go through a filter of "of how much damage would this have done with X less adaptive" where X changes with how many stacks you have. And with that applying to every instance of damage (including DoTs like Darius Bleed and Liandries) it's not a wise use of PC/server resources.

How didnt you expect they would play her as a support?

We didnt think she wouldn't get played as support at all, we were fine with some support play. Typically though players end up playing a champion in the lane/position they are strongest in. Through internal playtesting we were confident she would be stronger in mid then support so we thought players would still primarily play her as a mid laner. We were right about that and she was stronger in mid lane, but she was very unique in the fact that most players (by a large degree) were playing her in a position that was actually statistically weaker then another position.

yeah, we would likely have to do that to some extent anyway to make the release exciting. We took a similar approach with Senna/Yone, for example. We evolved their story and visual design with their releases as champions.

Serpaphines silhouette is different enough from Sona. She was also originally intended as a mid laner. I wasn't implying we couldn't have 2 champion with plant like powers (Maokai and Ivern also using plant like powers) I was saying we didn't want to make another female support with plant like powers. We certainly can and do have more then one Champion who uses a sword, and we felt we could also have more then one Champion who uses music, and that singing was different enough to playing a stringed instrument. We didn't explicitly plan for her to become a support that's just where players want to play her. Even when her winrate is higher in mid most people play her support.

Hey Reav, do you think there is a possibility of ever seeing a LoR character getting added to League? I know prior to Renata's release a lot of people thought she would actually be Corina Veraza, and I'm curious if we could see some badass characters like Atakhan, Bringer of Ruin (I mean the champion name and title is right there), or really just any cool characters or champions inspired by LoR designs.

Yeah, we talk about it a lot. It gets complicated because the characters have to be different enough and have unique enough silhouettes that they don't overlap with another character on the roster. For example, we talked about Corina when we were making Renata, but given we were making a support we felt that she had to much overlap with Zyra. Both were dark/evilish supports that use plants, or at least the best version of Corina in LoL probably does something with botany or plants. I think we will probably do that someday, but we haven't found the right opportunity yet

That’s what happens when you ignore the void

The puns in that one must have snapped right into place!

Oh it's going to be a joy.

My only thought for how this happened, is that your clone applies red buff as well, but as a different tick. That clone stops existing and there fore can no longer earn you gold and experience, almost as if a neutral mob killed a neutral mob. Huge bug honestly.

Close. Clones cannot apply Red Buff, but they do apply the jungle item. The rest of your theory is mostly correct from my understanding. Looking to fix this in 12.12 ideally. No promises however.

You're amazing and your genuine excitement for League is infectious.

I appreciate you, thanks :)

The amount of true damage sources in this game is getting a little absurd right?

FWIW it's bonus true damage, not conversion, and it has to stack up before it's going be a massive number.

Every time Phreak tries to meme with his voice, I’m reminded with his More Sparkles bit with Zoe’s Champ Spotlight and Sett’s Spotlight.

Glad this one actually delivers lol, still some cringe but not as bad as Zoe’s

More Sparkes is legend how dare you

Surprisingly little puns, is phreak ok? Is he sick? If you're forced to cut down the puns, blink twice.

FWIW there are different writers from spotlight to spotlight and some take a more humorous approach than others. As I was busy with MSI, I didn't have a lot of time to add more jokes in myself. This isn't to place blame on anyone. I think Bel'Veth's spotlight is good.
