That's an interesting thought, with that said it's very hard to measure that or estimate it. There is definitely some non-0 bias there, but I wouldn't have the expertise to really estimate how much that matters. My gut tells me that over a large enough sample size (which we tend to have) it mostly washed out to less than 1% of a total winrate increase. But my guess there is likely as good as yours.

One thing that's important to note about these stats outlined in this post is that pick rate =/= viability. Mythic diversity manifests mostly in what items are viable on a champion, and the items are different enough that certain gamestates call for certain items.

Using your own examples, Sylas (in the last 30 days) purchases everfrost in 88% of games. However, there are 3 other mythics with higher win % than it, one of which is Ludens with a 3% higher winrate. If players were more adaptable, they'd identify the situations where other mythics were more optimal than Everfrost and opt into those alternatives depending on gamestate.

The unfortunate problem with mythic diversity is that it's really tough for us to beat player psychology, which is to play what's comfortable or popular rather than critically think game-to-game. I don't blame players though, as up until this season there weren't meaningful decisions to be made so that skill hasn't been trained.

This post is... odd. I'm seeing very clear alternate options for all example champions, with some even higher WR than the most commonly picked item. The problem is that no one is changing what they buy.

I see this is more of an issue with how Riot "weights" what defines our recommendations in the shop than anything else (we currently heavily value what's bought more often than what's the most effective WR increase).

Thank you, that was confusing me

Sure, but the read is that Divine Sunder is like 1-2% winrate up for top laners when bought, which is the amount they wanted to buff Illaoi by in the first place.

Sorry I'm not seeing this until late!

Thanks! I feel like art school is good for networking and getting face to face interactions with teachers and other possible future workers.

I learn more in a classroom environment and need feedback/criticism. It may be different for each person.

My goal was to go to school to learn, and not get a degree. I saw 4 years of learning kind of wasteful and long, so I made sure to focus on getting good at one thing I could be passionate about.

In the end it boils down to your portfolio. Plenty of youtube videos talking about portfolio do's and dont's.

Hope this helps!

Yeah but then they one-upped it game 1 against MAD

He didn't miss R. That's why his first Q on Lucian reset.

Depends on what company you are at for how it works in practice. At Riot we have multiple groups, each based on their own affinity such being a Veteran or being Filipino. The size of each varies. I think our LGBTQIA+ group is one of the largest. In general, the groups meet weekly/monthly/quarterly to build community, collaborate on projects, and more! We did this mostly at our office, but now we do it virtually because of COVID.

Lol its ok!

I still suggest Youtube because alot is on that.

I dont know any online schools to be honest. LCAD is my first and only college experience. I hear a school called brainstorm is super good and cheap. Idk if they have any VFX classes tho. I plan to go to brainstorm to learn things once I settle down and figure mylife out haha

Hey there! Our team is technically an Employee Resource Group (ERG). ERGs are groups of employees who join together in their workplace based on shared characteristics or life experiences. The business benefits from hearing our diverse perspectives and in turn employees are heard and changes are made for the better.

Almost all large companies have ERGs including Google, Disney, Amazon etc...

Hope that helps!

<3 Honestly, I read a lot of bad comments related to being LGBTQIA+. Comments like these that are so simple and nice mean so much. I agree that we're not perfect, but we're trying and I think we do genuinely get better year over year.

Mhmm story telling and stuff like that. I didnt get to do much animating but it seemed tiresome lol
(they were still doing the traditional animating with paperflipping using 100+sheets of paper)

VFX in my opinion is actually a form of animation. im taking a particle system and making it go from point A to point B. Or stretching it super far and then shrinking super tiny the next second! My favorite thing in VFX to do is called FlipBooks! Its pretty much hand animating something. Like for example, did you know Dragon trainer Tristana has a flipbook animation of a flame that comes out of the dragons mouth when it fires? its just 4 frames that happens super quick.

VFX is awesome because there is no one way to get an effect done. I can make the same effect but using 5 different methods. I was very uncomfortable in VFX the first 4 weeks. it was only after I started to grasp it that I was like. "niceeeeee"

LOL I hope this answers some of the questions.
