You're kind of both right. You can buy eggs for any species (Any random Shisa for example), or directly purchase specific colors from a rotating selection (ex: Firecracker Shisa).

Assuming this is gonna be the normal version of Malphite's Prestige skin then.

ALSO there's no way in hell these Lux skins weren't worked on by Sirhaian considering they were brought in for the Jax skin too, right?

Edit: Confirmed :DD

Just for full disclosure, I work full-time at Riot now (and have done so for two years now), so there's no need to bring me in anymore hahaha.

(And yes I just HAD to work on those two skins!)

Taric, Twitch, and Talon skins are all so good. I've been fairly consistently unhappy in some capacity every skin batch for the past year or so, but this f**king rules.

I'm normally not a big fan of Dark Star either but these are all really good. Weakest is Malphite, but that's mostly because Malphite is kind of lame in general (even if I enjoy him in ARAM).

The Lux skins are good too, although I am literally never buying another Lux skin since I have the ultimate already.

edit: this does make me wish the older RPG skins were 1350s, cause that is a massive lost opportunity we can't get back. Oh well. At least the skinline is back.

We do hope that bumping the RPG line up to 1350 serves the thematic a bit better. We’re fans of it and hope to see it continue assuming players do too. :)

We'll take a look at this today - we're refactoring a bunch of the backing systems for the Stats tab this year. It seems to be more stable in most regions, but in some places where there are a lot of games to process (such as EUW) it may still be getting backed up. Thanks for the bug report!

I'm excited to hear from Riot August but holy shit that picture.

A younger Riot August. I didnt think that pic was that old.

This is what working on Rengar and Wukong does to you.

Hey all, wanted to clear up any misconception before it starts - this wasn't aimed specifically at Doublelift.

I gave a take earlier on the show that Spring Split does matter & basically it's garbage that so many people are saying it doesn't when if you're a competitor you should be driven to succeed for any number of reasons, career success, achieving playoffs, Finals, MSI, etc etc etc.

This was just a follow up on that. Yes DL said publicly that he doesn't care about Spring but it's generally wide spread sentiment I've been seeing so much of on Twitter & elsewhere in the community.

Why are they using Ember.js and creating hundreds (and maybe even thousands) new instances for simplest stuff while they could use React or Vue both newer, more performant and has a centralized control mechanism (1 instance to rule them all [*1 instance and thousands of components])?

Why hundreds of Ember.js apps?

Shortest answer, we f*****p; really bad, long story.

AnotherJS newer, more performant

Link to benchmarks repository or it didn't happen.

That is A LOT of work.

Based on u.gg...

You did not remmeber correctly. About 50.5% jg and 48.9% top in platinum+. All ranks are about the same. Not a Skarner main but damn I haven't seen that dude in awhile. And that's coming from a Wukong main.

wukong is currently one of the best cases for an overpowered champ being played incorrectly and considered underpowered because of it... he's like, 55% winrate in midlane and 46% winrate in jungle.

I'm Viable

iirc hes kind already pretty high in winrate, including top lane.

Totally fair. The only thing that should change your mind will be positive, forward progress.

Well, I guess you'll know what you're doing. And they way you put it now, I'm a little more optimistic again.

But I think you gotta understand why the wording that you chose to go with made me (and probably others as well) very skeptical. It sounded like you mainly care about making the client faster and not about fixing bugs.

Thanks for going a little more in-depth, I hope you'll be succesful!

We've earned your skepticism, no doubt about that. Hopefully in the coming months we'll re-earn your trust.

me: hey skins team, what're you doing

skins team: oh nothing, just generating revenue for this company, which covers your paycheck and the paychecks of everyone else here including the client team devs

me: oh tight, wanna stop that and learn how to fix plugins and ember apps?

skins team: f*ck off

In the process of going after specific speed metrics (which we explain in-depth) we'll be opportunistically tackling bugs too.

You had me in the first half, not gonna lie.

But this sounds just like what I was worrying about.
I'm pretty sure that 'opportunistically tackling' bugs is just not gonna do it with the sheer amount of bugs that already exist and the new ones that pop up every once in a while.

I appreciate you taking the time to answer me, but I feel like you missed my point.

I'll put it more directly: we're going to be reworking plugins and ember apps. These same plugins and ember apps are at the very root of the bugs you're talking about. Therefore, when we rework them, we'll be making sure we're addressing any and all related bugs.

For bugs that aren't necessarily related to plugins or ember apps, we'll be going after them too, "opportunistically."
