With the modern emphasis on Humans inspired from other cultures like Samira/Viego, is there any plan to return to Ixtal in the near future?

The region has a lot of Meso-American inspiration and offers a pretty unique blend of various cultures that I feel isn't fully explored through just the existence of Qiyana, and I was hoping to see more given how long it has been since the region took the spotlight or even had an associated champion released.

If we can't get more creature champions...can we get more 'monstrous humanoids' then? Rito pls.

I thought it was pretty clear but looking at the comments it seems as though you might need to write jot notes instead of rationale to get the point across more easily.

I have a question though, how do you measure engagement and how do you decouple it from strength within meta/between patches/regions and regional metas.

I hope we can get at least 1 monstrous champ each year (from either humanoid or creature). I guess the thing about humans representing humans seems obvious to people but in fact it happens in others IPs. Makes me wonder, are we going to see an Aztec inspired champ that could fit in Ixtal?

And while Runeterra isn’t Earth—so our goal isn’t to make champs that perfectly reflect real world locations—we have made a stronger effort to make champions inspired by regions everywhere. We want all players to be able to see themselves in the games they play, and League champs are no exception. This is something we’ve become really passionate about on the Champions Team, which you’ll see reflected in some of our recent (and upcoming) champions. For example, Samira was inspired by Persian culture, Viego by conquistador-era Spanish culture, and so on. To do good cultural representation though, you almost certainly need to make humans, or at least champions that are close enough to humans that people can relate to and identify with them. So this is another reason we’ve been doing more humans recently.

Not sure if any Rioter will read or answer this comment, but there have been a vocal minority that are bitching about Irelia looking Asian outside t...

Did they just acknowledge that they f**ked up with Aurelion Sol's kit?

And the whole article just feels like a big excuse to justify "Human champs are hot and sell more" without saying it outright tbh.

Random question, not sure if you're who to ask but hopefully you could pass it on to whoever is the right person to ask.

Would it be possible to get stat-tracking on Guardian like most other runes, and almost all the new items have? At the moment it just shows it's current shield strength, but it would be awesome if it also showed how much total damage it had shielded over the game. Like a mini locket of the iron solari.
