Kind of unrelated to everything, but thanks for writing that insight! I usually dont bother reading them, but I was pleasantly surprised to see it wasn't just some boring corporate buzz. So, thanks for a giggle or two, keep doin' what you're doin'!

Thanks for the feedback! I'm learning a lot about what y'all like and don't like in these articles so I'll be trying some new stuff for future champions!

The company has gotten so big and faceless that you have to market the humanity and sell us that riot is still infact still run by humans.

It bums me out to hear you say that tbh. I think a lot of Rioters choose not to engage because they're afraid to deal with bad reactions.

For example I've been harassed and received rape and death threats for making jokes on Reddit. It's sh*tty and definitely makes people unwilling to chat. Or the constant flame about "treat women better." Which, fwiw, keep holding the company accountable. But average sound designer guy is almost certainly the sweetest person in the world and has never done a bad thing to another soul and isn't sure how to respond.

We're all humans. Riot has changed and grown, sure. But I wouldn't still be here doing this work if I didn't think the devs cared about the game and all y'all's happiness.

I feel like some players forget that if the employee is talking to them, they're part of marketing.

That's not the case actually! Any Rioter is encouraged to talk to folks if they want. But people who work outside of marketing/comms often hesitate.

I'm sure partially because they're afraid of the spice and salt. I've been playing since season 2. I live for it.

Holy shit, thank god they didnt go with the original design. Having a champion that can double the range of any projectile is insane.

The same thing that doubled the range of allied projectiles also used to half the speed of enemy projectiles, it was wild

Is editoral writer considered marketing? I thought it isn't... correct me if im wrong.

It is! Haha. It's a weird one. My internal title is Marketing Communications and I sit in the marketing area of the org. But I also... It's a weird thing to communicate, but I don't view my work as marketing. I'm not selling something. I'm just here to tell you the story of how it was made and the humans behind it.

Could you possibly share which writer and designer you’re thinking about assigning to the VGU

Alright, time for my middle school soundtrack to make a comeback.

From MCS, specifically, I'll recommend the following:

Incidentally, these are pretty much the top 5 MCS tracks on Spotify, so I guess what I'm really saying is that high school me was a basic af emo kid :/...

Sure! I've got my Viego one here. I actually deleted the Gwen and Akshan ones. Lemme dig up the others.

Any insights on the utility of her R? Going in as a mage is fairly novel - neeko gets a substantial shield from R and Fiddle does so much damage he doesnt care about defenses. Does Vex fall somewhere in between?

Vex going in with R usually entails (a very predictable) AoE fear and a large shield. So it's much closer to the Neeko side. She usually has the damage to blow up one person if she chooses, but she definitely doesn't have the "one shot 5 people instantly" like Fiddle.

Idk if you can answer this till PBE, but when gloom says 'enemy', does that include minions and monsters? Or just enemy champions?

Enemy means every unit, so it includes minions/monsters/champions.

Yeah I love pressing way too many buttons to do anything in any game so was super hard to get away from Millia once I tried her!
