Hello!

We're looking for feedback for the new Challenger Recall VFX!

This new Challenger Recall will also play in ARAM, although toned down to make sure it doesn't read like an actual teleport.

Let us know what you think of it!

Thats not how it works, especially in tech. Newcomers would need quite a bit of training in the way Riot codes and does things, that it would be good for long run but would mean in short run their educated/qualified employees would have to work more. This would actually mean lower productivity from those people for a while.

Things like coding languages, workarounds, coding patterns, documentations etc are not things that someone can just see once and start writing their own code within few seconds. This is particularly important when you consider that League is a 10+ year old game with some real weird/spaghetti code without proper documentation at times.

It's true! With so many exciting opportunities in the gaming spheres and so many changes in our lives in the recent years, roster of folks working on champion is in flux. Mostly because we always have to trade off making the next exciting champ vs focus on training.This year, I think we want to put more bandwidth to train up newer Rioters all across the board! This means designers will have less bandwidth to work on their current projects. I'm hoping this is helping to build better stability in the long term. Once we have enough devs to backfill etc. It opens up current developers opportunities to grow in mentorship or even to work on a different project that they are passionate about. I don't want to ever keep someone on the team as an exciting opportunity passes them by or if they need a bit of a break etc! I'm grateful that the team think the same and will often stretch themselves to support their fellow teammate.I like to think that we are going a bit slower right now, in order...

Will there be level 3 and 4 honor recall as well? I would like to alternate between blue, purple and orange colored recalls.

Nope.

Riot shills trying to pretend they don't treat their employees like absolute shit lmao

Riot has (and has) it's share of problems, but it's by far the best place I've worked at in multiple metrics. I can't think of many companies in the gaming industry which, on the whole, treat workers better.

No longer a dev, but please write into player support. They have the tools to validate and fix this.

I would say that's the whole point of 'GG' option, right?

Are you saying you use "GG" honor for asshole players rather than just honoring someone else or just skipping the process?

Is this the case if you buy it too? It will only last until the end of the season or if you're demoted?

It's free. You can't buy it.

Yeah, maybe, but you're certainly not going to honor someone who was being an asshole, are you?

This seems like a bad thing given the incentive to reach honor 5 is lowered.

The incentive is there to be honorable every game, which is good for everyone.

I’m guessing when you’re honour 5, the recall lasts for more than one game?

Yeah, lasts until you're no longer honor 5.

Me and my friends are having a debate right now on how to understand your sentence. Do you mean that it's not only for honor level 5, but also for being the most honored (aka honor level 5 is NOT a requirement) OR it's not just for honor level 5, but only honor level 5 + most honored last game (aka honor level 5 + most honored is a requirement)?

Yeah, damn. That really is a confusing sentence. You can unlock this recall EITHER by being honor level 5 OR by being most honorable player in the previous game (for 1 game only).

Most honored as in if you get 2 and everyone else got 1 you get it, or does it need to be the 3+ honors thing where you get a chat notification about being the most honored?

I believe it's probably whenever you get a "leaf" in the scoreboard.

Comment

It's not JUST for Honor level 5. It's also unlocked for 1 game if you were the most honored player on your team!

Casters calling it a 1v2 when it's clearly a 2v2. If it was a 1v2 trist wouldve blown ezreal up bc he used e and flash on Gnar

I mean the entire play was an extended 2v2, but the end of it is Flakked alone vs two champions. As a style thing, I'm probably not gonna say "Flakked wins the 2v2!" when in that precise moment he's now in a 1v2 but that's just me in this particular call.

Like sure I might be technically wrong big picture wise, but I don't think it's dishonest to say it's a 1v2 given how the fight transpires.
