Hi! Will we get the ward if we're watching the finals in theaters? Or do we have to struggle with streaming it on our phones while we watch on the big screen?
Ooh, that is a great question. Lemme look into that.

Hey everyone! Looking into this on our side to double check this because this was definitely not our intention. The worlds pass this year was supposed to have the same tokens as last years.
I'll follow up soon when we know what's going on.

Gigantic evil Tibbers was the best! The promo game for Doom Bots had the casters, etc playing against the doom bots and at one point Giant Tibbers looks up at the overhead view "camera" and growls - just awesome!
I remember that filming. The build was still pretty early, and we were battling bugs right up until the record. The broadcast team did cool little things like stacking the poro toys on a chair and shaking it for "crowd ambience". :D Zirene DC'd halfway through and we frantically were trying to get him to reconnect in the background. Crazy times. Good times on old League :D
how about the ability to remember role selection for ranked
this is planned
Omg so many fond memories. We spammed this in the office and it was a blast.
Jackie, this year was incredible and I am more excited for next year than I've ever been for an LCS season. Y'all have been absolutely killing it. Myself and many, many, many other fans will see you next year 🙂
Hell yeah! You love to hear it 😍 Thanks for taking the time to say this.
Is there any chance of it coming back???
It's been many years since I worked on LoL, so I have no idea sorry!
Sooo... Fasting Senna with K'Sante bot?
oooooooooo
I was wondering if you could help me since I didn't get the drop, I was watching the game on my pc and the drop happened in the time it took me to turn off my pc and tune in on my phone so I ended up missing the drop. I contacted support and they basically said they cant do anything about it I was wondering if you could help since I seen you trying to help another person here.
im euw and my tag is Gamielol
heya gamie1543, the rule is that you need to be there. I do know that the timing was late, especially for anyone east of New York, USA, so I'm looking into seeing if we can drop Akshan again with more head's up. I've been communicating when the next ones are coming, so you'll have a better chance at them. I'll keep you all posted!
The text which I got in the email was this but it was truncated
"heya crashmore! so, there are basically a few kinds of drops, you can get all kinds of things. Capsules, codes, loot codes, and chromas. The exclusive Tiffany & Co chromas are currently dropping as in..."
oof. so, maybe it's operator error on my side. (need a sweat blob emoji here) I was basically saying that we do different kinds of drops, and the chromas are not part of the capsules, so they're separate. some drops give you capsules, the others might give you a code, and then others will just deposit icons, emotes, wards, and now chromas right into your account.
That's weird I got an email about a reply, and then I opened it and there was no reply at all. I saw your other reply which was to my other comment. BTW support seems to think only some people get the chroma even if they're watching so I guess I am SOL
huh. reddit things i guess. :/ I'm working with player support on this as well. The chroma should have gone to everyone who was watching live when it dropped (and, of course, who's ad blockers were not on). It wasn't random, it was only to fans who were there when it happened. If you were, but we weren't capturing you due to a technical issue with ads, that would be the most likely reason if I had to guess.
I do have to say this post was made out of spite for the chromas not being skins. I really did not think much, and just wanted to vent a little. Being able to watch worlds for free is actually huge, and i should have processed my train thought better. Thank you for pointing it out, I'm less angry now
Hey there! I was able to get the intention of what you wanted to tell us! A lot goes into the planning and creation of content for Worlds, and every year we listen to fans like you and others to learn and make choices. Thanks to your post, I was able to help clarify some things, even if those things don't make everyone happy. The world is a big place, and I'm personally thankful for people like you for being honest about how you feel, even if it's not all sunshine and rainbows. Thanks for being a fan and a player! What get's me up out of bed everyday, other than my bladder, is getting to work on this stuff for fans like you all.
/u/Riot5oda I guess you replied to this and then deleted the reply. I see I was somehow downvoted for my comment too. Ah well
Hi! I didn't delete anything, I did edit one, but not this one. :(
Hm, I see. Well yes, I've read these rules, it's a good guideline, I'm just asking if it was random or "if you could get, you should".
Seeing your earlier response about "try supprot if it didn't drop while watching" I did, they just told me "The drop is not guaranteed so you can end up being a bit unlucky and missing it.", so I was wondering if that's the case, because it sounds like if I was watching like usual, which I did, I've.. the drops from all previous group stage games.
Sadly no live venue for me, but 28 drops from this worlds so far means.. I was probably watching it like before.
Still, either way, thanks for the answer, the "one of the few in the world who have it for a while. :)" makes me hopeful it's not a lost cause forever. Being an avid collector sucks..
I'm having the crew look into it, 'cuz you should have gotten it based on that.
I sure do. :D
Easily my most fun mode to make. Ascension was my most fun to play, but Doom Bots was most fun to make for sure. First PvE mode that gave us learnings for Star Guardian in later years.
Hey 5oda, brief question.
Was the Akshan drop on 16th, or the future Zyra and Swain or ward drop later, guaranteed if you were watching? Or it's still a chance?
if you follow the rules i posted, and make sure you get other drops, you'll get it. There are cases where people don't because their browser is blocking ads, so make sure you're all set up on lolesports.com. We also do a drop around the beginning of the first game of each stage as a way to let fans test and make sure they're all set up, so log in then for sure!
Thanks for listening, drops have been pretty good this Worlds otherwise.
Thanks! We always run into little snags when we try something new, like these chromas, so we really appreciate the feedback on them!
Is there any recourse for players like me who have watched over 30 games in hope of getting the chroma but the stream froze out for me during the 2 minutes that the chroma was given out? What about players who watch a lot of the world's event but have a life and couldn't be present during that one minute drop time?
It feels shitty watching this year's worlds event and going 5 days without a drop. Then, days later you open the subreddit to see what's going on and there are post with people claiming to get the reward. So you refresh the stream no more than 6 minutes after that post was made and then nothing and I'm just shit out of luck.
In this case, if you're having stream issues and followed all the rules in the player support article, I would reach out to them to see if they can help you out. I personally find Chrome, Firefox, and Safari work the best, and you need all the ad blockers and all that disabled.
That's unfortunate since I knew people who watched a bunch of games but couldn't on sunday/early monday and missed out on the chroma because they didn't have a heads up. I hope the team will reconsider and do another drop for it, since it was caught people offguard
That is good context. I'll see if we can do another since it wasn't super clear.
Hey friends! Riot 5oda here again! Let's talk about Tiffany & Co Chromas. :)
As part of our special engagement, we're dropping each of the three Chromas one time at Worlds this year. In order to get them, you must watch from lolesports.com, be logged in, and opted in to get rewards. Additionally, Ad blockers hate us sometimes, so make sure you're getting other drops as well, or check out our player support article on drops.
The rules of our promotion are relatively simple: simply be there watching live, with your player synced properly to the live broadcast, and you'll get the drop when it happens. Then, we will fulfill it directly to your account. You'll know it's working when you see a little check box on the bottom.
Some FAQs from questions y'all have asked: - You have to be watching on lolesports.com to get them (in most regions). - When they drop, they go directly to your account, even if you don't own the skin or champion. - Our agents in Player Suppor...
