I wish this thread wasn't so accurate... I'll try my best to give you a full bingo card but ideally not create a spam filter :P I think a run of the classics is good, no?

There's no way for us Garena players to get the exclusive icons? That would be sad as I'm a fan of (G)-Idle.

There will be a way, it will just be up to Garena's discretion how they want to release it.

I really dont wanna over-interpret stuff but ender recently (sometime last week?) uploaded an instagram story where he said something along the lines of "this sucks, but dont worry about me guys, sometimes u just cant change things, still sucks tho" and i feel like this could be connected?

Has anyone else seen the insta-story and can confirm/deny this?

That was related to something different, not worlds that I dont feel comfortable sharing yet. I obviously wish I could be doing more, but I'll still be on the broadcast doing an SofM analytical profile during countdown.

Idk why they just dont make it a tri cast with each from differing regions. Would enjoy to see odd combos casting at worlds. Like 1 lec, 1 LCS, then one from LPL or LCK.

We haven't had any shoutcasters travel for the entire event. The NA crew have casted from LA, the LCK crew from Korea. It's just not possible and hasn't happened all event long, it isn't possible to get cross regional casts due to the impact of covid and our decision to make broadcasting as safe as possible for everyone involved.

Players outside of NA, LATAM, and BR who can't make the stream; don't worry! We'll be sharing with you a different way to get these icons soon.

Kinda confuses me. Does it mean everyone tuning in can earn it but for people outside this region they will get an extra chance to earn it due to timezone diff?

Its available to all regions except Garena and China. However since it’ll be pretty late in EU and Asia, we’ll provide other opportunities to get them.

Preseason Ranked changes testing on PBEHey all, we've activated some of our Preseason ranked changes on PBE for testing in Ranked Solo/Duo queue which means we'll also be enabling ranked on PBE. Specifically, rolling out the following:

  • Inter-division promos have been removed. On promo, leftover LP will now roll over into your next division. Inter-division demotion shielding at 0 LP has been removed as well.
  • We've also made some matchmaking algorithm adjustments. This won't be super noticeable on PBE due to the small population size and fewer ranked games played per account; we're mainly looking for bugs.
  • For those players at Master and above rank, duo queue will be disabled as part of our Apex duo removal feature.

In order to get more exposure on these changes, we've temporarily disabled normal queues. If you want a refresher on these and other Ranked changes we're working on, head to our most recent Ranked blog: ...

Why not put it in both categories? There is nothing wrong with overlapping content tags sometimes.

That was definitely an option we were looking at. The content management system we use for riot.com is a little funky so we hit a couple barriers in terms of providing a nice, slick UI while still serving videos in a way where you could find what you were looking for quickly. It was either a long boring list of links or endless scrolling (for the longer categories). All solveable stuff but it kept coming back to the YouTube playlist experience being hard to beat.

As we were working on the project it also felt like it was getting further away from its original purpose which had been to celebrate the partners we work with on these. We ultimately just started editing the video descriptions to add credits like we’ve been doing since “Welcome Aboard” (for Odyssey) or shortly after.

I’d still like to revisit this project because we have so much good stuff that it’s easy to forget about some of the hidden gems. Especially as we’ve gone multiproduct I dream of a central h...

What you use to log in with is the Riot Client and not what you're trying to modify. Under Finder > Applications, you should still see two separate applications - "League of Legends" and "League of Legends (PBE)". These get installed after logging in with the account associated with each for the first time. The same occurs on Windows in C:/RiotGames/ - you should see "League of Legends" and "League of Legends (PBE)".

I have been testing with this change, it has been fine so far but just after the patch this afternoon to restore preseason to the PBE I noticed that chat was not working (not able to type, no pings, no history, it was as if chat did not exist). As well, kills/aces/shutdowns etc. do not have the normal border and champion icons, only the text. I removed the "MetalBetaTest=true" from the config and they are working again. As well, the PBE crashed ~5 times in 1 match, but that may just be due to client instability rather than Metal.

Thanks for reporting these! They should all be fixed in today's PBE build :)

I hope Riot will do some kind of list on their website at some point ;)

Good job mate

Around two years ago we started building out a section of riot.com as a video hub but killed the project. We were worried it wouldn’t improve on the experience of a YouTube playlist and we also got a little stuck on how to categorize the videos (does Get Jinxed go in a music videos section or a champion section?).

I’m still not sure about the YouTube question, but this definitely shows we were overthinking it with the categories, lol. It’s an awesome list.
