The Jungler is definitely going to me more on the complex side of things. Not like Aphelios though

I'm sorry, but I can't educate you on all of this. Like I said, I would advise you look into more formal educational material. The only - and last - thing I'll mention on that point in particular is that:

• There are an awful lot of things that are illegal that probably should not be that fall under crimes.
• Most people who commit crime do not commit crime because they want to commit crime.
• The police do not stop crime. The police apprehend suspects before a community panel. You do not stop crime by increasing police (in fact, there is some evidence that an increased police presence correlates with increased crime rates). You decrease crime by reducing the reason for people to want to commit crime.

Yup, I agree with that. I think the scope was very hard to understand because it was uncharted territory. I agree with Anathemas Chains being a really good item and I think our more recent additions are also pretty good! Gonna look to address more item pain points in the future hopefully!

There are so many talented and intelligent people who are not rewarded by capitalism in practice. If the goal of the reward is to encourage innovation, perhaps a better way to encourage innovation would be to ensure that people have their meets met so that they are free to innovate and not have to worry about where their next rent payment will come from?

This is without considering that it would probably me more humane to structure society around keeping people healthy and happy and enjoying the fullness of their life, rather than making sure we extract the most value (usually for shareholders) from people.

So I disagree that the item rework was conservative nor that it had a low impact on pro champions. We saw a lot of shake-up especially early in the season. As for this season, it was intentional that we weren’t going as big in scope because of how large a preseason last year was.

Unless you are someone who is fervently right-libertarian and believes that governments in the world right now are all corrupt, we already live in a world which relies on people being honest and moral. The profit incentive can guide certain things, but most of the worlds infrastructure exists not because of the profit incentive but because it was required.

And this is without getting into the fact that you do not need to be honest or moral for people to collaborate in order to further their shared interests. People need to eat, drink, be housed etc. Funnily enough, those last three things aren't even necessarily provided for in some governments, so it's hard to see how "communism won't work because we can't trust people!" is a valid argument when basic necessities aren't met when not practicing communism due to what appears to be greed.

We all trust that politicians won't abuse their power, but they do. If you want a world in which you cannot trust anyone, ...

If you're looking for a place for political theory then r/lol isn't it, but I'll' give it a crack.

Your problem is coming from the perspective of looking at the world through the way it exists currently, and the idea that the world needs to continue existing in that way. That is, we have money, states, etc, now, so therefore any version of communism would necessarily need to include money and states.

However how is capital judged? Are people going to be removed from ancestral homes or simply recieve no wealth in return when redistribution occurs.

Capital is simply private (not to be confused with personal) property and money. If a state ceased to exist, there is no one to enforce laws against private property - that's what the police do. Current money probably loses m...

Communism is the idea of a flat society with goods distributed based on need rather than on capital. It is a stateless ideology. "Equality" in communism is more closely related to equality in terms of capital - Wealth disparities, essentially.

"Communism means state run" doesn't really match up with what the political theory posits. one of the central tenets of communism is 'The withering away of the state' - the idea that the state does not need to exist in an actualised communist world. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Withering_away_of_the_state.

Noxus has no desire for the state to wither away; it is an expansionist military empire, primarily attempting to obtain arable land. They demand loyalty to the state from their subjects. It is an empire with a military dictatorshi...

yep

Yeah I always throw a wild card on the list to gauge community interest. A lot of people ask about a Quinn VGU so I threw it on to see how many votes she would get. She didn’t really get enough to put her on again this year. I put Kog up as the wildcard this year. Their is still interest internally for a Quinn VGU at some point though.

It’s support > Jungler > botlaner > Udyr right now. Of course we won’t release things until they are ready so that order is subject to change

I did, she deserves it !

Viego is literally a monarch

Hahahaha seems I was found out xD

Sylas is closer to anarchist than communist IMO, references to Marx notwithstanding. not that the two are mutually exclusive.

Of the roster, Sylas is definitely the closest. Anarchism is all about dismantling unjust hierarchies and taking direct action - it's hard to argue that Sylas' killing of Jarvan III isn't propaganda of the deed.

he's still here in spirit. and also, as my manager.

You and me both hahaha, happy to hear that
