We're currently testing Hecarim changes for this patch. Ideally we find a way to just push power away from tank build into fighter builds.
It's possible that we need to adjust Chemtank instead. The problem is that Chemtank is a pretty reasonable option on a lot of champions and a extremely powerful one on a handful that are heavily driving the meta (Udyr, Hecarim), so nerfs would have pretty major costs.
It is the worlds song right
Yup! We mixed the Take Over theme into his R. You can also hear it during his Recall too.
Will look out for the show! First impressions; the prestige skin looks great. The white and light green work well together. The actual skin colors are just so dull and don't look good.
Appreciate structured and thoughtful feedback. :)
Fixed an issue where scaling the HUD could break parts of the shop. (Allan, add a joke about scaling here.)
Damn it Allan
(Barack, Respond to the comment about your stupid joke.)
It will be fixed in the patch being released today/tomorrow
Interesting they're moving from red on the Conqueror skins to green, wonder what the reason is?
Hope Jax mains like it cause that skin at first glance is a hard pass.
The DWG skins look exceptional, though I'm a sucker for blue skins.
Like Championship skins from Worlds last year, we’re trying to theme Conqueror 2021 closer to the events visual theme and colors. Let us know what you think once the skin and the show are live. :)
yeah i hate that guy, always ruining my life.
True

So are they going for a rune page theme now?

Impressive performance from both Rogue and MAD today, and it’s really nice to see some new teams being able to compete at the top of the League.Casters:
Long ago, when the pyramids were still young, Egyptian kings played a game of great and terrible power. But these League games erupted into a war between G2 and Fnatic that threatened to destroy the entire world, until a brave and powerful pharoh locked the game away. Imprisoning it within the mystical Mythical Items. Now, 5000 years later, a man named Larssen has overcome his demons. He is infused with ancient magical energies, for destiny has chosen him and his allies to possibly be the New Kings. It’s time to DDDD-Duel!
this is the single best comment i have ever seen, but did you know that armut is the 2 time tcl champion?
Read moreI think theres obviously a balance. Trash talk makes it fun, and since the tweets are pretty intrusive I feel like there should be more effort into making them more diverse. I think at least a decent number of people would agree with this. Otherwise it might as well be a bot sending messages with words from a random pool. Having positive messages isn't a bad thing, but if every message is positive it doesn't add anything to the broadcast, and kinda distracts from the whole thing.
An example is the tweet about the dude not wanting tsm to lose cuz it was his birthday. That had a bunch of actual emotion in it that people could feel, and it clearly was a popular tweet. Maybe if you don't want trash talk, show some of the more desperate tweets or anything other than the 'I'm so happy, good luck to both teams, can't wait to support both teams' sort of stuff.
All my opinion obviously with no stats to back it up. I just think it has so much potential to boost team rivalri...
Totally agree. As people get familiar with having tweets on broadcast, I hope it encourages more fans to submit so we can highlight lots of unique and creative messages.
I don't know if you are allowed to say this, but can you show tweets that are trash talking or would that be against sponsor rules? I feel like the tweets could be really fun if they weren't all so 'positive' if that makes sense. Maybe tweets like, 'TL will 100% throw this lead' or something like that. It will make the twitch chat more fun IMO, and will likely feel more real
If I have a choice between a supportive tweet that is hyping up the teams and players, or one that is being negative or heckling them, I'm going to pick the positive one most of the time.
Hey Reav3, is the roadmap being published this week?
No
Yeah, casting is hype and I like watching with it, but holy shit the tricast of Meteos, Sneaky, and Doublelift is so insightful and provides so much information about professional play/high level gameplay.
Back in the day LCS had lounge casts, and co-streams are really the evolution of that. The idea was always to have pro players just chatting about the game, but achieving an authentic tone on a Riot broadcast was problematic (for obvious reasons). This is really is the best of both worlds, and I'm glad this outlet exists for fans.
LCS DOES dip into tri-casts, flowers/azael/Kobe is definitely not unheard of. I’m assuming because of spacing and social distancing issues they couldn’t get a tri-cast for the finals but I actually have no idea.
You are correct.
They are likely tweeted 10-15 minutes before being broadcast. If I had to bet, it was tweeted when the score was 4-1 or something, or maybe even in game 1.
No not that slow. They are delayed, though. Obviously we need to screen tweets to make sure they are PG-13, which takes some time. Properly encoding the stream to ensure a high quality signal also takes processing time, so viewers on twitch and youtube see the game with ~2min of delay compared to the production team live on site, so even the fastest tweets will still be a couple minutes old.
I agree 👍
“They have no respect for TSM, and to be fair, they don’t deserve it.”
Jesus Christ, Phreak.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
wow I can’t believe this is the first time a team named g2 or fnatic hasn’t made the final since jesus christ himself walked the earth
Haters gonna hate, this defeat deserved this. Part of the reason the LEC is growing in viewership is buying people into these stories because they are freaking true. While the people commenting here may dislike it, many many people do appreciate hearing them. It may be trendy to bash on LEC storytelling, but it's a powerful tool for any sports broadcast. The people stories, the team stories the game stories. We're not a live broadcast explain only what you're seeing show, we're an entertainment and edutainment product. You gotta have both.
We always read threads to keep an eye on fan sentiment and make sure we're aware! Especially when I say the wrong spell names ffs
