League of Legends Dev Tracker

As a developer myself I'm aware the real financial cost of having to remove all references to lethality and across localizations could be, which I would like to see mentioned too. Be honest with the player base.

I'm a bit sad that communication around the conscious decision to keep the name wasn't mentioned in the notes, as likely true this makes it seem a bit revisionist? I'm not sure that's the right term here but I think it gets the point across.

I'd make the argument that lethality also doesn't tell me it's weak against armor. If I'm 50 lethality I'd think I'm really good at killing. Couldn't the same thing be said by naming it something a bit more on the nose? Physical Burst?

I think the name lethality just has a focus group pull to it that the kids like and that's alright too. Maybe more stats should have names like that?

Instead of heal and shield power, why not Protector's Power?

My point here isn't to suggest changes, but rather h...

Instructions unclear; do they go end to end in opposite directions?

i feel like a unique name for heal & shield power would be nice too, even if it's not a priority its just...such a long term for a stat

though of course coming up with a term that makes it clear that the stat works on heals and shields could be pretty tough

I assume they're seeing what happens after both her core items get nerfed.

Hey, that's me!

I'd be happy to make more videos if people are interested (probably shorter ones though), but I found myself in a weird spot on the Seasonal pod where we don't ship content very often so I don't have frequent content drops to talk to players about in the same way that the Live pod does (e.g. Phreak) or like I did when I was on Wild Rift, so I'm not sure what kind of topics/discussion/thoughts people would want to hear. Besides talking about new patches, are there topics people have in mind?

First of all, thank you so much for making this video - I've not gone through Phreak's yet but I've just finished yours and it was really fascinating. This sort of communication is super niche (as you said in the video, you have to be super-invested to find yourself watching it), but it's really rewarding. I found myself reading the patch notes being a bit sad at how little context there was on why the item system was changed the way it was (even the dev blogs left a lot of detail that you covered out), so getting to see such expansive thoughts is great.

In general, if this is content you'd be able to make, it would be amazing to get discussion of I guess game design philosophy as it currently is at Riot. Stuff like current thoughts on how various classes are and should be interacting with various systems. One thing which came up a lot in the run down is the idea that mages should be less threatening against tanks than they were in 2023, and the item changes reflect that go...

As long the content is great I'm sure people will like it, I don't mind it if you can't do it often. At least I prefer quality over quantity. I recall you making a small twitch stream with another rioter (I'm sorry I can't recall atm) where you answered several questions. You even answered one I did about the "demonic embrace spiritual successor" for AP tanks due it's removal and it was very insightful (before we had any ideas about what items would gonna come). So yeah, I'm sure people will like it as long the content is engaging, I think the way you have in explaining decisions makes the viewer interested in the content.

Besides patches, at least for me I would like insights about the goals you had before the official patch. For example, the awareness I got is that the goal this preseason was to reduce ganking, are you afraid for example that ganking paths may be too hard or it's scaling needs something? Also 2nd question, in terms of mage itemization (although they may s...

In your tweet you say that this was an issue caused by “people not demoting often enough”. Does this mean the demotion shielding is going to be less impactful this season, causing people to demote more?

Follow up question, If this is the case, is it a product of the new system attempting to adjust MMR off “player skill” as opposed to just wins and losses?

Item stat filters are manually added AFAIK.

Sharing (Gold) is Caring: Rift Herald grants any gold it gains from turrets/turret plates to the player that summoned them (if they weren't around) ⇒ Rift Herald grants any gold it gains from turrets/turret plates to all champions who assisted in killing the Herald

I'm looking forward to randomly getting gold for my own tower being taken down because I happened to hit the Herald as the enemy took him.
