hi riot meddler,
could you please look into checking with the Challenge team and see if they can fix a few challenges, especially "Dream Team"
Pls give as much detail as possible on what's happening with Dream Team. Trying to track this bug down but its quite tricky.
I happened to be lucky and randomly get August on my team in a norms game last week. Super chill guy. Happy he’s able to take some much needed time off.
please tell me it wasn't the one where I went 0-7 as Zeri
HP SPECTRE x360 - 15t-ch000
Just saw this! I’ll pass it along! Thanks for following up with the model.
Finally. Now when people ask me if I'm a janitor I can actually be one in game.
This is great. Valorant is the only reason I even still have a gaming PC. Use my Mac for everything else. Can't wait to downsize.
uh whoops I'm so sorry I thought this said Vanguard for Mac. Apologies for the confusion there. Maybe the League subreddit shouldn't be the place to ask Valorant questions lol
When are you going to talk about why 2025 is going to change league forever?
We've got some cool stuff coming in 2025 and will share more about it later this year. Having said that I think "Change League forever" is a bit of an oversell though. I'm really glad @RiotPupulasers is super excited about things being worked on, we're not redefining what LoL means, upgrading everything at once or anything at that sort of level though.
I thought there would at least be something like a teaser for 2025 changes, or what direction to expect etc. , is there any reason why no announcements?
We'll talk a bit about direction for 2025 gameplay and other changes around September, then a lot more about details sometime in November.
/u/RiotMeddler what are you doing about smurfs ruining rankeds at every level of play?
I think pretty much every single player has been affected by this recently, it's absolutely out of hand.
I think it's one of our bigger issues too. We've got some matchmaking work underway as one part of that. We'll talk about that in the next dev update which should be sooner than usual (so about a month or so from now is the current plan)
I've counted "We'll talk about that in the next update" at least three times, and I'm only at 3 minutes.
Seriously. Why bother? Why start with "We're going to answer your questions", and then not actually answer the questions?!
Other option was to skip this video and just wait until the next one (around a month from now most likely). We concluded even if we couldn't give specifics yet on some stuff it was better to stay in the habit of talking regularly and answer what we could.
Will you also talk about what we can expect from the anniversary? It's good to know about the rewards and stuff, but what I'd like to know is if there will be any news about the IP. Series, movies, big changes to the game... I understand that you can't go into details, but it would be cool to know if you're cooking
Focus will be just celebrating LoL and its community, not on any big reveals. So some rewards, some light stuff to engage with, bit of reminiscing and general discussion. No big reveals or wider Riot news though
august 8th, in what world does a multi billion company need 2 full weeks to edit and publish a video like this, sry but thats actually insanity to me
Editing and Localization times! For context every time we publish something we have to ensure it gets localized in all the languages we support. That's like 27 languages. So we have to get all these articles, and all the subtitles localized in those languages. ON TOP of everything else that we're already doing. It's actually a crazy lift when you step back and look at it all.

Was there any articles about the day vanguard was down and kicking players out of the middle of matches?
If it's the specific moment I think you're talking about we actually talk about it in the Vanguard article we put out today
Should be in that "Vanguard Event" section. While it was more of a consistent issue, the day this started really popping up had a lot of posts about it.
I wonder if they saw that thread a few weeks back complaining about skinlines...
We did and yeah, that's one of the reasons we wanted to touch on this topic. Some of this discussion was planned regardless, some got added in response to ongoing conversation
I see your sql query in the Vanguard dev blog and it makes me wonder, would it ever be possible to have access to read only databases to make such queries? I would spend my days just looking at data and make random graphs with it u/RiotMeddler
We already have a hard enough time keeping u/mirageofpenguins in line with graphs. I don't know if we want to unleash more of you all onto the world.
any chance that this would re enable league on linux? I know we are a small population of gamers but feels bad having to dualboot and restart my pc to swap to windows every time a friend wants to game
This would not sadly. No plans still to support Linux but if that changes we'll update y'all.
Great format! Nice to have just some standard questions answer instead of focusing on one or two topics. These are good to break up the normal dev updates but shouldn’t replace them.
Excited to see the new modes information. From the outside, it seems swarm was really positive. I’m hoping to see either a permanent mode added or an emphasis on cooperative modes that allow a more collaborative environment instead of a competitive one
Thanks for the feedback on the format. We'll probably do this approach again occasionally if we don't have enough regular content. Unlikely to be a frequent thing and certainly not a replacement for stuff we'd otherwise talk about
u/Riotmeddler , vanguard disables the drivers on my HP laptop which prevents the touch screen from working. Just wanted to note that.
Vanguard demands you submit to M+KB supremacy. On a real note, I'll send that over to the Vanguard squad to take a look at. Mind sharing the model of the laptop to give them something specific to look into?
Calling off the duo.
Like we're eligible to duo anyway
Sorry to everyone who doesn’t play Zeri, Swain, Diana, and Caitlyn on the prestige front. That said 3 of those are my most played champs across all accounts and another sign that Riot has clearly been listening to me specifically.
In case you were wondering we made the call after Vanguard gave us all your fanfiction about them
