Good to know. Thank you for the info!
No problem. Sorry for any confusion or alarm! This could have happened when I fixed a bug yesterday where her crit anim was still slow—but it's still working fine for me locally. QA is hunting it down as we speak.
The Anivia auto attack buff was one of the things I was looking forward the most, and it already got reverted lol
It's not reverted. Must be something funky going on—wall is reverted because of visual issues with some of the skins at non-100 increments (since that's the size of a wall chunk), and the rest is all going through with minor tweaks if anything.
Edit: Just tested on PBE as well. Seems like the change is correctly still in, not sure what's up there.
And? Berlin night scene is special but it doesn’t come close to LA.
You've been to the wrong parties! As cool as LA is, Berlin night life is on another level
Wow what interesting but dangerous idea. Love it, thanks for sharing. Like that level of problem solving is what LoL needs to go another 10 years. Obviously not every radical change is good, they can sometimes be change for the sake of change.
But You know what would spice up the jg again? Those smite buffs we had on camps. I feel they add much needed strategy back into the jungle and rewarded invading. I digress though.
What are the main goals for new champions coming to 2021. I love that the team is dedicated to releasing 6 a year. I think that's healthy. Really hoping you can change the cadence to release more monster champs. I know it's a tired topic but it would really bring back that fantasy aspect that League had. Tone down the anime feel. I know the art direction of LoL has changed but in the end I think a high level fantasy is what it should stay.
Ill be going over the goals for 2021 in the Champion Roadmap that will come out early January.
In 2016, Lululemon (the athleisure brand) revealed their strategy to grow their men's business to $1 billion by 2020. The quick version of the strategy was this: if woman want to buy premium athleisure, look good at the gym, and be comfortable, why wouldn't men?
Turns out that strategy (along with the rest of their company's strategies) has done wonders for them. Their stock is trading at ~$370 today compared to like ~$50 in 2016
I love my Lulus. Most comfortable pants I've ever worn, and I basically swore off jeans. Some of my guys friends actually roasted me a bit when I first started wearing them, but I kind of notice that men everywhere are wearing athleisure and joggers now. It's dope.
Anyways, women playing LoL is dope too. People shouldn't be bullied or harassed for their gender, especially related to their hobbies or interests. That sh*t is really cringe.
You know what's funny? Even as an outsider I just feel he's jut so inspiring to work with. I am sure he improved everyone around him and I feel besides champions, he could've done some major damage in the item update this pre-season. I am also sad he left but hopefully he can return.
Much respect for you as well boss I think you're very good at your job.
We actually had Brad working on Pre-Season stuff once for the Assassins update. For along time we were testing what we called "Base Guards" and they were these woodland Satyr like creatures that would spawn from your base and patrol your jungles (2 base guards for each team that would each patrol one quadrant of your jungle) They were allies to your team but would attack on site any enemies that walked into your jungle, but would give your whole team gold if u killed them. They did very high damage but were susceptible to burst. His theory was that to make Assassins as a class less 1 dimensional and more useful to their team, adding a objective to the map that was tailored towards Assassins that Assassins could do to contribute to their team would make the class more viable in high level play (since Assassins often struggle in high level play) They were really interesting but we ultimately cut them. Later Brad would go on to make a Assassin that has been viable in proplay since he...
Read moreWill CertainlyT ever come back boss?
Send him my regards either way, I love the way he approaches problems <3
This video and the interview with Travis were very good :D
Who knows. I for one would welcome him back in a heartbeat and I was very sad when he left Champions team. Of course I selfishly wanted to keep Brad on the team forever, but I think it makes sense for him to go work on other projects that could potentially have a bigger impact then just a Champion release. He is simply on the the best designers I have ever had the pleasure of working with. In my close to 15 years in the industry (damn I am getting old) their are only 2 designers I can think of that had a massive impact on my career, one being Eric Williams from the 7 years I worked on the God of War games and CertainlyT here at Riot. He not only made incredible champ designs, he pushed me to be a better producer, and product manager just through working with him everyday he was here on Champions Team. But you know, August left Champs team and came back eventually so maybe Brad will be back someday as well
You really have no idea who certainlyT is do you? He’s by far the most acclaimed designer, creating unique actionable ideas without the August Browning touch of unbalancable, and by far the best champ designer at riot, Yasuo Zed Zoe Thresh Darius and many others are examples of top tier design and fantasy fulfillment beyond their years while maintaining peak balance.

Read moreCertainlyT was unironically one of the greatest holistic Designers (not just champ designer) that League has had. I know this is going to get memed because people will say "yeah he just taught people how to make broken stuff or how to balance worse", but I don't think he did those things. Designers here are definitely good enough to have their own opinion and be able to defend it. He definitely pushed the boundaries in a way that is not everyone's cup of tea, but that's part of what makes him great. He also knew how to make simple champions (think WW update).
It's unfortunate, because players will never get to see behind the scenes of how he contributed, but one of his best attributes was that he truly passionately cares about League. He was always up to date with all the new builds (often as soon as they were popping up in KR soloQ) and he knew all the little details about the game inside-out. In his spare time, he was always prototyping stuff locally on his computer to m...
This. 100%.

Hopefully these ADC buffs help a bit to contribute some power and access to their 2 and 3 item spikes, and bring Galeforce a little closer to the other two mythics.
This one really hits me. I got really into esports watching Doublelift on CLG. I started playing ADCs because of Doublelift. And I stayed interested in league long term because of Doublelift. He played a big part in where I am now
watching some of those clips brought back amazing memories. The EZ pentas, the lucian teamfight that he turned around vs C9, the Jinx penta vs TSM...
PLUS everyone else is trash, officer caitlyn, etc.
DL delivered some of the best entertainment on and off the rift. I really think that's what makes someone a beloved esports player: the talent + the personality
The marksman who shoots a bird and does parkour.
