When are we getting the next champion roadmap?

Also, the concept and animations for the champ are SSS+ tier.

Will try her cause I love her shadow so much. Lots of her concept art would be cool champs and some of those skins.

I wonder how much her skins and legendary will alter her shadow design. That's the biggest thing I hope for.

Next roadmap should be out later this month

Her and Sojyoo both worked on the next marksmen we will release. She was the artist on Vex, which is just hitting PBE. She is also working on a unannounced VgU for 2022, and soon to start a new Champion which is targeting 2022, but that could always change.

may i ask, do marks stack on the same target multiple times?

I'm actually not sure! Maybe /u/Riot_Koyuncu would know as I know his team has played her quite a bit for testing.

Heh, at least I haven't seen anyone else notice it. As an English major and part time proofreader, I just can't help but notice stuff like that. great Champion Insights btw.

Editing is truly my weakpoint haha. Hate it.

Thank you!

/u/Riot_Koyuncu would know! He gave me the one for Lillia that we shared in her Champ Insights previously!

I was ready to hate Vex due how cliche (in personality) and overcharged (in kit) she -initially- looks, but the recent gameplay reveal and this insights makes me apreciate it way more. It's easy to see the care behind her. Right now, and until I start hating facing her, great job, guys!

P.D.: How feasible would be to pick her as a support? I know it's not her intended place, but artillery mages tend to like to go well there, with some of them turning it its main home.

Per Riot Axes, she's a pretty good support!

Get ready my future ADCs, I'm coming for your kills.

Don't you also have a placeholder splashart or something like that that one of you just draws quickly and is often a masterpiece?

Regrettably no - I wish I had some MS Paint Vex art to share, but we used her concept art as our placeholder splash for the entirety of development.

Big thanks to /u/riottomukus for helping make the header image for Vex (I'm big dumb with Photoshop)

Original art is by Lonewingy!

Omg thank you! Yes, I've got the Deathly Hallows symbol, Flash symbol and the triquetra from Charmed on my arm 😊

Very cool! I have Morrowind's logo on my back, the grand soul gem from skyrim, neekos flower, and a pokemon tattoo! I'm actually at the point where I want more tattoos but am almost lacking games I feel that level of dedication for 😂 what's your ign BTW? I'd love to give you some RP!

It's easy to see that champ designers deliberately went with dashes as opposed to including blinks as well.

If possible, I'd love to understand the considerations/implications that would occur if Vex's kit also included blinks. Was it ever on the table? How did internal testing go?

Totally understandable if you can't reply here, but I'm sure alot of us would appreciate it if this facet of the design process was included in an edition of champion insights.

Thanks!

It does apply on blinks, actually. Sorry for that confusion.

they underestimate the number of MOBA players who don't want to be MOBA players

Shipping range extension in League would have given Vandiril so much content.

Fun fact: We also briefly experimented with the inverse, where portals slowed down incoming enemy missiles to a crawl. Walking around a slow motion Ashe arrow or Miss Fortune ult was really cool, but had its own host of technical challenges.
