Don't you feel they're too gimmicky for Summoners Rift? I understand that you want people to get 'the bang for their buck' but I feel it just doesn't fit on SR.

Not sure yet, and at end of day what players feel trumps what I personally feel. ARAM will hopefully be a useful test of sentiment there too, alongside getting an initial read on combat clarity impact.

the broadcast is sorely missing a top tier analyst

getting Veteran would be amazing, guy knows EU very well

Out of genuine curiosity, what do you define as a top tier analyst? What is it in your eyes that differentiates them for other analysts?

Pretty sure Darius is the kingpin, according to the poster

The city of Demacia Vice definitely has enough room for more than one mob boss. ;)

Hi! Dont mind me asking, but is there a specific reason why Xerath hasnt received a skin for so long, even tho his playrate has been good for a long time? Is it an artistic or other kind of challenge? I would be really glad to know, thank you for spending your time with my question.

Whenever we make a skin we’re faced with a lot of difficult choices. Not only what thematic world we want to visit but also what champion to make it for.

There are some champions that have much smaller audiences than others. This means that some skins don’t do as good or a job of “paying the bills” as others.

This all being said, we don’t always choose to min-max for revenue, which is why you skins being made for lower play rate champs like Papercraft Anivia or Darkstar Shaco.

One active effort we do have though, is we’re trying to augment our skins and content pipeline through a variety of means. This is both having more people work on League content but also looking at our tools and processes and trying to find more effective ways of working. The end result, we hope, is that we can create more skins for lower play rate champs per year.

Isn't it just ARAM and not SR?

Just ARAM for now. Interested in SR too at some point, but would require we solve for visual noise. Might involve things like them sitting on terrain Swain Raven style or just vanishing entirely when people are in combat.

Really think so? I'm 28. Lol

Definitely. I know a few Rioters who did complete 180s in terms of career substantially later in life.

Can you elaborate on what is the difference between the 3 categories? I wasn't able to find that anywhere.

Cat1 = lower seating section close to stage, Cat2 = middle tier behind Cat1 and Cat3 is higher up and far away from stage. You should be able to see a seating map when purchasing tickets.

This is the kind of quality content I open this sub for at 1AM.

Awesome!!! If I start spamming a champ now will it count towards that Shop?

Your Shop is usually generated a patch or two behind the release date, so starting now probably won't have much impact unfortunately.

If these ones sell well, I think there should be a spinoff skinline with other champions that might not fit the "vice" thematic (not hunks), but work really well with the retro/neon aesthetic. I'm dying for more skins like this, but none of my mains would actually fit in the "vice" theme :(

We have a similar hope. Will have to wait and see if players globally really enjoy the thematic, if so then we’d be more than happy to expand the world of Demacia Vice.

Ahri would be nice lol.

Not an uncommon request. Definitely being considered for future visits to the Pool Party theme. :)

Huge Kavinsky fan. Was actually just listening to this mix that has him featured around 30:00-31:00 mins in: https://youtu.be/85bkCmaOh4o

I'm assuming with Aracde being the summer event that means we won't be getting Pool Party this year?

No Pool Party on the immediate horizon.

As always Riot delivers on an amazing skin trailer & the music department kills it too. While I won't be buying the skins cause I hate em (cait is bae though) - I said "wtf no way" so loud at the lucian and garen skins at the end that my friends were like "dude you ok?"

=P

Really wish I was good at graphic design or video editing working with Riot would be a dream job.

Never too late to learn!

Hey will there be pool party skin line this year?

Currently we’re not planning on any pool party champs for this year. Is there a particular champion you’re looking yo see in it?

Can you confirm anything about previous prestige skins being available?

Selfish question, I’m just sitting here with 3 of 4 Prestige K/DA skins, missing Akali due to finals but with 100 tokens in my inventory.

This is a contentious topic. We are still figuring out if / how we'd bring back Event Prestige skins outside of the current ultra rare loot drop. Open to suggestions!

Hey, seems like you are mission/shop/event thingy Rioter, so I'll ask - any plans to put in "Your Shop" anything for people who unlocked all skins? Even Hextech offers or icons/wards will be appreciated, so we can get something too and you will be able to potentially increase your sales.

Your Shop is literally useless for me and instead of bringing excitement, it brings me "Eh, again?" feeling :(

We've talked about adding accessories to the mix, but it's not likely to happen for awhile.
