Right, TIL.

I edited my comment to clarify.

I'm taking it you're involved with the LEC production team. Just wanted to thank you for making the LEC such an amazing experience! Loving the consistency of designs - really great content. You guys have kinda ruined other Leagues for me.

Do Design Studio regularly update the graphics? Because I feel like over the course of the season I've seen new graphics/transitions and some such.

I'm one of the Producers at the LEC. Small disclaimer as I try to summarise below, I work more closely on the broadcast side of this relationship, and am not overly familiar with the fine details of the collaboration that we do, as it is part of our brand team!

Our graphics team in-house updates and designs our graphics to work in our graphics renderer that we use on our show, VizRT. Some graphics (like Live Gold Difference or Champion Select) require further collaboration with our stats, IT, and game teams, too.

Frequently Design Studio will give us new items or elements to utilise, and we also split up work for certain videos. (We produce a lot of our video content in house, and on some pieces we have Design Studio collaboration, like our start of season hype vids!) If our internal teams are a bit busy; having trouble coming up with a design that fits the LEC designs; or are trying to make something that isn't within our own expertise, we work closely with the coo...

EDIT: My comment is misleading at best and false at worst, check Riot response below.

The LEC production team doesn't design the LEC layout. Design Studio, who also designed layouts for the UEFA Champions League or the PL do. Riot likely doesn't have a contract with them for international events, only for the LEC.

Hey, just popping in to clarify this point on Design Studio. While we work with Design studio for developing our brand at the LEC (colours, typeface, transitions, visual motifs) we create our own graphics and designs around this in-house and are able to modify/utilise as we see fit.

While Design Studio has given us a branding style and some cool tools to play with (transitions, shapes, typefaces), all of the broadcast graphics you see on air were designed and programmed by our teams!

We don't utilise the LEC branding on Worlds, as the event itself has its own branding team which is region agnostic. It's a bit weird to picture, but there is one centralised team that is making the event, and then all of the broadcast regions are producing their coverage of the show with separate teams by adding their own casters/analysts on top of it, including the English Language broadcast!

It honestly seemed like one of your smoothest things you guys developed.

I know. The dev team busted their asses. And they still are as they get ready for set two. The game modes team is spinning back up too and doing great work as well as they get ready for our upcoming events.

To be fair, you guys are comparing a mode that was in ALPHA, that had NO REAL BALANCE DONE TO IT, to something that you guys showed a hell of a lot more support and work twards that was in beta-near release state on it's debut, that also is a completely different gameplay genre, that people who don't actually play the game can do.

That's like comparing a watermelon to a orange. I seriously think you guys didn't give it enough of a chance and are majorly to blame for why NB didn't do as well as it did, especially since you guys rushed it out and called it a alpha to begin with.

TFT’s development was the fastest-moving dev cycle I’ve ever seen at this company. Like, when we were only a few weeks away from shipping on PBE it still looked like trash and there was this bug that made it so Swain’s ult played non-stop. Endless crows screaming. It’s a MIRACLE that players actually thought TFT was in a decent state when we got it out the door.

That’s fair. We’ve been getting a little more wild with TFT missions in part because it’s not a team game—even if you decide to go after a really weird mission, you aren’t screwing over somebody else in the game
