Not sure but I dont think that alone would qualify as "Best designed" Champ. It would be a factor, but kit satisfaction is also a factor to good design, since at the end of the day we are trying to design a fun game, and fun champions. If a Champion had zero balance changes but nobody played the Champ it would hard to call it the best designed champ in the game

Karma is probably up there, but if you think about how frequently Corki's R is up vs. Karma's, the fact that he doesn't have access to it until 6 is outweighed by how frequently it is up post-6.

Ok so the Poro Snax question, I couldn't find a way to completely accurately answer this (especially not for all time), BUT, a couple of assumptions and calculations led me to about 152 Million Poro Snax fed to Poros every year.

Methodology-wise, I took a sample of ARAM games, got average number of snacks "used" (by looking at the trinket item slot and seeing the state of the trinket slot at the end of game), and extended that for roughly a year for all our regions excluding China.

There's a lot of assumptions I'm making here, largest one being that I had no easy to parse if you used 1 or 2 Snax (so I had to just assume a number there).

That all being said, that's a lot of Snax. I wonder what if they ever get tired of them...

Well your winrate against Garen isn't great at 38%. But good news, we've got a solution for you! Autolock Twitch or Amumu when against an enemy Garen - your win rate is 65% against him with those two. Oh, and stay away from Ziggs....

TAKE THAT, GAREN.

Nasus would weigh in on this but there's minions up top that won't farm themselves

Ixtal is definitely a region we want to expand at some point, especially since we really only have one Champions point of view so far

Hey rmcoo!

My path here wasn't super interesting, but it was definitely unexpected (for me anyway!)

I studied Physics in college, with a focus on computation. After I graduated, with the ever-looming student loan debt creeping up on me, a friend hooked me up with a job at a small market research firm here in LA. I basically got hired to be the office "Math Guy", but the job let me work on a lot of video gaming projects. I was able to work on everything from market analysis to audience segmentation for companies like Activision/Blizzard, EA, Sony, and even a few Riot studies. (I also had to do some work in TV, Film, and Digital Media, but that stuff isn't as cool to me)

After 4 years, I found myself particularly interested in player insights. It's amazing how difficult it can be for publishers/developers to connect with and understand their players with any degree of clarity, and being a life-long gamer myself I felt very motivated to work in that spac...

Her goal on the armor was to convey that she was a squishy champion rather then a tank or even bruiser, as Kayle is super squishy in game.

You humor has been noted. Appropriate measure have been taken /s

What we did was change the Clash design so it better suited how league works

Your win rate on Nasus is a whopping 55%! NICE!

But actually, the champion that you have the highest winrate on (with over 100 games) is actually Dr. Mundo at 66%!

Hey there! IMHO this is 100% the funnest job I have ever had analyzing data, and I've done a bunch of different data analysis jobs. At a lot of jobs in this field, you'll be doing lots of analysis and data processing every day, but rarely get to see how the data you're generating is getting used by folks at your company. We're pretty lucky because we're actually a part of the teams we support with data in most cases - so we know exactly what our designers, marketing folks etc. are trying to do, and get to design research projects and systems over the long term that help them get better at making decisions and mesauring the results of their actions.I've been working on trying to understand the same kinds of things about player psychology for the last four years - and when you're allowed to focus on a subject like that, sitting right next to people who are building features around them, you learn a ton!Plus it feels very rewarding to know that even if I can't actually code or draw o...

What should this champ’s launch skin be?

I heard there is a pretty direct correlation between being hardstuck and losing. I'd suggest not losing and winning more games!

Yes.
