That's the kind of scripts I'm talking about! It really goes to show the value in "knowing your lines" like when a better player kills you and lives with 10HP, it's not luck, it's that they knew they'd live.

This is super cool! Keep at it!

I played a match earlier today and it was just fine!

I'm not sure how it is now but the bots had very precise scripts way back when. E.g. Veigar bot would only walk towards you if he could combo you and he would with precise E W Q R. If he ran away he could not OTK you. EDIT: Banshee's Veil would confuse him and he'd try to OTK you and not succeed leading to free kills. This was very useful in the doom bots of doom to win at level 100. TL;DR the bots have scripts to layer CC and time things like...well robots.

But why week 2 has 2k points to get when week 3 has 7,5k and week 4 only 6k? It doesn't make any sense. Even now as I am ARAM player I don't get any points from a couple of characters so I usually get 20 points per game. It means that I have to play 90 games this week to complete only week 2

When u get more sentinels u will also get more points from them, so it should keep going up as u progress

Last I checked, u/RiotKingCobra said it wasn’t a possibility, though I don’t remember if it was on the discord or the subreddit. Also worth mentioning is that AFAIK Cobra doesn’t work on the balancing team, and as many suggestions as he got on the “poll” post a few months back about ASol’s identity nothing has really come to fruition from it yet since it’s something he’s been doing in his limited free time.

Swapping E and R would solve many issues, and until a Rioter that works full-time in the balancing team (no offense to Cobra here) confirms that it won’t be a possibility I’ll keep my hopes up that it can happen one day.

I would not say that it is off the table entirely - anything is possible - but it is pretty unlikely given the amount of work it'd take, not including time spent validating if it's even a good idea in the first place.

And to clarify, I work full time on the balance team! I'm just not a designer. I'm a quality engineer though I do collaborate super closely with designers every day. While I do not directly design and implement changes on a patch-to-patch basis, I'm usually a participant in the conversations and meetings where we discuss them!

Hi! Do you know why the Sentinel Points Objectives were changed? The current ones on the live server are different to those on the support page of the event. For example, Swift Irelia (A) is now about getting kill streaks, but on the support page is about winning within a certain number of minutes.

I would like to know because I am choosing each region based on the information that you provided, but it turned out to be unreliable and now I am worried about the other selections.

Update. The Support FAQ is correct and the in client text is wrong. We are updating the in client text now

I somewhat wish they would reveal the canonical order so that we can (if we so choose) do it in chronological order. On the other hand, it would be another thing to consider in addition to how we earn points (so perhaps better it isn't revealed early)

The canon order is Demacia > Freljord > Noxus > Ionia > Targon > P/Z > Ixtal > Bilge > Shurima > Shadow Isles

We are investigating that right now

Thank you, that sounds much better. Can you disclose if the points will continue to be multiplied for the following chapters as well?

They will yes, they increase every week of the event

I'm holding my breath.

This is all lines up to be £ternal$ 2.0

Be ready for them to charged £10 for "one trick" tag.

Hell, even money to select your boarder.

No charges planned in this space.

Same boat. Too much grind.

It should start to get a lot faster. With Chapter 2 coming out points are now doubled

idk if you can tell yet but will Vex come with an event skin or will she be like Akshan with his Cyberpop skin? (Also I love that skinline hope you do more of them in the future)

Vex is currently planned to ship with a future event and get a skin within that skinline

/u/Reav3 Whats the point of making a recap if im half-way through noxus and i didnt touch frejilord yet ? Is my progression slow ? I played a lot of games since the event started.

No your progression isn't slow. It's mainly for people that did hard grind all the way through and for people that aren't reading the story. I would suggest watching it after u finish Chapter one (Demacia, Frel, Noxus) though since it's pretty fun to watch

i hope you read this because even if a lot of players don't appreciate it it really means a lot that you respond for the .0001% of us that genuinely care and want an answer despite the abuse you'll probably get, thanks man

the point about lucian and senna not knowing these champions really is an obvious point that i cant believe I didn't consider

However, biggest flaw that you haven't addressed and the only truly egregious lore thing here imo is that there's nothing about yorick. I would love to hear the answer for that lmao because unless you guys still have something with him to release, that's a big fat "we forgot and/or didn't care", there is no one more involved in the shadow isles and viego it's like his whole mf lore

I'm giving the benefit of the doubt that he's just going to be a later part (and hopefully a good/big one) because based on responses like yours I truly believe there's some nerds at Riot that love the lore as much as we do and wouldn't d...

I did read this, and thanks!
