Valor? Don't you mean Quinn's jetpack?
Who's Quinn? I only know the bird.

Wow, they straight up did a "Smokin' Sexy Style" in the concept art itself lmao, that's awesome.
I mean... Have you seen her?
One thing we talked about that didn't make it to the article was trying to re-define "sexy" in League. The devs tried to make Samira feel like a woman James Bond. Smooth, confident, and charming. She knows she's the best, and she doesn't care if you do. Everything she does is for her.
They asked a lot of the women on the Champions team for some thoughts on what makes a woman "sexy" to them. And the result was Samira, basically.
It's the difference between her and Draven. He's a showman because he's compensating for something else. Samira's a showwoman because she's the f*cking best and wants to do crazy sh*t for herself. Draven needs a crowd. Samira doesn't.
Wow this is super dope. Thank you for taking the time to make this and share.
This is getting hyped internally here too. Awesome work. :)
… hold up. An ADC who also uses melee attacks? Yup. Samira wants to dive into the fray to take out her enemies—just sniping from the backline is too easy. Sure, it’s breaking the cardinal rule of ADC and giving support mains everywhere a heart attack, but Samira doesn’t really care. It’s the thrill she lives for.
Hey Riot, wasn't this a super cool thing you tried on an old champion? What was her name again... Quill? Quinoa? Queef?
Don't you mean Valor? Isn't that the bird champion with the sidekick or whatever?
giving support mains a heart attack.
You're damn right!
My heart is so weak already. Plz god no.
I notice an interesting lack of older designs for shamira compared with more recent champions...
I wonder if it's because people were constantly complaning the concept ones looked better.
Nope! The way it works is the team and I meet, we talk about the process and then the artist (in this case /u/kindlejack) dumps a bunch of art into a folder. We select the art that fits the story, and in this case Samira was so clear to the team that it didn't fit the story.
Also I don't even have that image or know if it was explored the way other champs were.
did you balance LEC drops also?
you promised Prestige Points, Skin Shards and Champion Shards, but everything you really gave us was... blue essence
Each region had a different plan and limitations for their program. We also had made some assumptions about some of the reward content that we couldn't lock down in time. For next season, we're working with the leagues who will be doing drops to level up what we did for our first attempt.
Thanks for listening. Totally aware I don’t have all the information and requirements you do. Hopefully next year is better, else we....RIOT! Get it? Ok I’ll see myself out....
LOL, all good, puns aside. :P Thanks for providing the feedback! We're focused on doing everything we can, usually with limitations, and it's nice to get your perspective.
Is it possible to log in and get to the stream page prior to the match starting?
The broadcasts will often start prior to the first match of the day, so check out the top nav bar on lolesports.com for when matches kick off.
Appreciate the “look on the bright side” but honestly it’s not applicable as those items aren’t time bound as the live viewing. What it should be is 1 set of rewards for live viewing AND VODS. Set it accordingly to yield the same result for you that way if some watches only VODs, then you get the same return (ads or whatever your revenue line is) and we also get the same level of rewards.
Thanks for the feedback! There are some limitations that drove us to the program we're launching, but that solution definitely comes with some tradeoffs, and this is a big one. All I can promise is that I hear you and will work to focus harder next year on trying to find a better solution, hopefully without the same limitations we had this year.

Alienware is not one of the sponsors who will be participating in Drops for Worlds. I believe there was an issue with a drop they had that we had to work to correct with them during summer LCS, but that drop is not part of Worlds at this time.
How exactly does the Youtube link drops work? Do we have to be watching the games via Youtube? Because that sounds a bit ridiculous when we're supposed to be watching games through LoLEsports for regular drops, so we'd have to have both open at once.
The program with YouTube is for linking your account with them. Once linked, watch one of the play in games over there and then you should receive a reward within about 24 hours. From group stage onward, we're offering exclusive drops for fans who are logged in and watching on lolesports.com specifically. They are two separate programs that happen to have similar timing.
It would be awesome if you re released older team icons for rp at the shop for this worlds. It really sucks you cant get icons from teams that no longer exist
I'll take it to the team! TY for the suggestion!
Thanks! Did you expect Volibear to be this much of a success given he was previously the least played champion out of Fiddle, Shyvana, Nocturne & himself?
He has definitely performed over our shotcall for him
Does that mean its going to be drops like the discount codes the LEC had earlier this year?
We're dropping a bunch of stuff, some in game, some out of game, with a brand new set of custom Drop card art specific to Worlds. There's a section in the bottom middle of the article about the stuff we're dropping. :D
This part about Drops is a little unclear to me:
If you miss the notification, you can visit lolesports.com/rewards and see the Drop anytime.
If you miss a rare Drop, keep watching for another chance! If you don’t get the rare item, you still get a common reward.
So, what happens if I find a rare Drop but don't click the notification? Will there be a rare Drop in my rewards tab? Or will it just become a common?
Some of the Drops will have a special rare reward associated to them and you'll be issued the drop with no action on your part. If you're one of the lucky ones, you'll get a little extra something with your drop, otherwise you get the main reward and drop. If you miss the drop, that's okay...we're not changing the drop from a rare to a common, for example, if you don't click it. If you get a rare, you get the rare. :)
