Correct these are all 1350s. There are some lines like Warden and Marauder that we think deserve a fair shake at the Epic tier.

Hi there! DX11 is now on by default in PBE and certain regions. We've left the DX11BetaTest=1 setting available for players who would still like to help us test in regions where DX11 has not been rolled out yet. Like someone else mentioned, there is a setting in the League Client under Game that lets you fallback to DX9 Legacy mode. Ideally this setting should not be used but if you do run into issues preventing you from having an optimal experience in League specific to DX11, please be sure to let us know so that we can investigate. As always, super appreciate everyone's efforts and continued support around testing!

One Question u/Blaustoise.

At the beginning of the year you announced to make alot of skins for champs which have a smaller fanbase, how did it work out for riot in the end?

Was ist a success?

In my opinion the sheer bandwidth of champs and skins was just amazing :)

Edit: and ofc I highly hope you voted for your favorite skins too ;D

I have no idea they locked me in the R&D dungeon please help me

Yooo that Taric flash was so clean.

Fun data fact: the highest winrate skins tend to be the more obscure, often older skins that "true mains" use.

  • For example, Yasuo's highest winrate skin is High Noon, specifically some of the chromas for it.
  • This is the result of selection bias, where "mains" of a champion tend to be the only ones using the older, more obscure skins
  • Some of the more expensive skins (legendary skins often) have lower winrates
  • This is from less experienced players trying the flashy and expensive skins, especially when they come out, and tanking the winrate

Or it's not selection bias, and League of Legends is both pay-to-win AND pay-to-lose if you pay too much, so you have to find the goldilocks pay-to-win zone

Thanks for coming to my TED talk

btw, skin winrates differences are reaaaally small.

on a serious note, I hear you can be really successful in League without ever using a skin. Some Korean dude got pretty far without them.

However the capitalist in me also wants you to CONSUME

Mecha kingdoms Jax on the enemy team? I sleep. Angler/Mighty/Pax Jax. REAL SHIT.

How about all the threads about removing some of the unnecessary, noisy, and disruptive vfx on storm dragon lee sin? I feel like there was clear feedback that a lot of players disliked how noisy that skin was, yet nothing has been changed nor even responded to.

Edit: My mistake, there were some changes made to the skin - reply from RiotSirhaian here.

We did tweak some stuff on Lee Sin after release, though. I personally did the changes, mostly on the Q. We simply didn't communicate about it. It's not perfect, and if we had had more time, we would have changed more, but please don't say we don't change anything. This kind of comments (and frankly, everything else I see in this Reddit thread) is exactly why I voiced my opinion on Twitter in the first place.
