Thanks for the transparency.

I know things like this are SUPER hard to predict (or maybe not I obviously don't know), but do you feel the "hatred" echo chamber towards new champions whether it is about overloaded kits, repeated gameplay & aesthetic choices, or whatever else the players complain about affect those metrics?

They were such a fun team to watch for so many reasons. I can watch the entire 2019 season all over again.

Hey /u/Reav3

Have recent released champions say Vex and Akshan, hit the "expected" depth & breadth target that Riot set internally? Or has there been a case where they have missed the mark?

Whilst I don't want to ask and spoil the LEC script, do you think you could get Abbedagge, Hans Sama, Bwipo and Inspired back to the LEC? Dunno if you can influence the LCS script at all...

Man just knowing that LEC is on makes my day, you guys are absolutely smurfing

It’s like that picture except mine has the riot fist in them.
I’m still getting them since I posted this. I’m at work and not sure where I can find my ID, I don’t see it anywhere on the riotgames site. I won’t have access to my game launcher until I get home.
I have the option to setup a riot ID in the settings menu, should I do that?

You're so full of shit. But it makes no difference to me. It was the night of CLG vs TSM. You were walking around the south exit MSG after the final game.

You don't remember, that's fine. I remember because at the time I was younger and thought you were awesome.

That experience definitely changed that and it makes absolutely 0 f**king difference to me whether or not you remember.

Edit: After thinking about this more it's really funny to me that you would accuse me of lying like that. You can look through all my comment history and see how many accusations like that I've ever made. Not once do I try to pretend that someone with influence ever wronged me.

It was seriously an experience that made me feel like shit. Not that it's your problem. You're not responsible for my feelings by any means.

You trying to accuse me of lying, yeah go screw yourself.

I just really wanna appreciate u/PhreakRiot for a sec, he explains things with so much insight and really gives a good perspective on many controversial things.

Riot should also recognize how they're an industry leader and moves they make will have effects downstream and in their own future.

It's a relatively small cost project when you consider it in the larger scheme like that.

Thanks for pointing out this specifically, it was the point I was missing in the previous comment. So, just to be sure: high number of games but low win rate doesn't mean the players are bad (even though they put a lot of games into a champ), but rather that the champ is purposely kept "weak" because otherwise his win rate would skyrocket because there are just so so many mains. Right?

Literally none of the champions you just listed are juggernauts besides Garen

I saw Phreak at a grocery store in Los Angeles yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.

He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”

I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.

The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.

When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each...

they go vs other players who don't know how to play against them thus they get an easier life inflating their win rate

This shouldn't matter. If the entire population is bad at playing against champion X, which leads to champion X winning 55% of their games, then the result of that is that champion X is winning a disproportional number of games and is, on average, overperforming to an unacceptable degree.

Riot doesn't balance around what the game "should be" like, cause that'd just be a guessing game, they balance based on what's actually going on in the game, and in this case, that'd be champion X being unreasonably strong.

I've once seen a comparable argument about Cho'Gath's 54% win rate, which basically went "Cho is really old and very simple, so it's to be expected Cho players have an advantage over more difficult/newer champions whose players haven't yet been able to master them like Cho players mastered their champion."

He is a dick online.

I've met him in real life.

I said, "Phreak!!!" While walking outside of Madison square garden during the NA finals one season.

Mind you all I said was his name and waived. And I was with like 4 people. I didn't ask for a picture, autograph, nothing.

And then his response, "dude can you keep it down I don't want a million people coming over here."

He is a dick in real life too.

Made sure to tell him in person and it felt awesome.
