Pretty freaking great. On a surface level, it's just cool to have people like or even just remember you and what you've done. Pretty much always great to feel relevant.

And then one level removed it's also nice because it means I did a good job capturing that moment. I imagine there are plenty of other top moments that don't get the same recognition because I or another caster didn't do the moment service.

Holy Shit! These are the best VFX by far I have seen for a champion, they look so unbelievably amazing and make me want to spam some Malz when they come out! I love the colors you used in Overlord Malz VFX it really gives the skin a lot of value to use now.

Really glad to hear you like Overlord Malz's VFXs. It was quite a pain to find what to do with that skin. >_>

Can Shadow Prince Malzahar finally have yellow/gold colored magic like he does in the splash art? Still feel screwed over for when I bought the skin for that reason all those years go :/

Sadly he's a 520 skin, so we can't add new VFXs to him. :C

Maybe you can also update the ignite icon in the future? Feels off that the icon is still old but the effects are updated.

You mean the Grievous Wounds effect, with the heart and swords? That's definitely on our radar, but it's a completely different effect from Ignite. :)

Great to see another awesome VFX update so soon!

I mostly only play Malzahar these days, and I just couldn't let him keep his old VFXs. :C

Sirhaian always pops off with these. Really like the Nocturne VFX update too. I don't play Viktor so much so can't say a lot but if anything like what Sirhaian has done before it's probably good as well.

Edit: Gave the man too much credit, in that case /u/Beardilocks did really well! Love the hand on Noc's Q and Eternum's new look. Good stuff.

Thanks! :D

The Nocturne and Viktor were made by /u/Beardilocks!

Azael doing everything he can to shift blame from Doublelift to Treatz. But it wasn't just the fact that he lost every 2v2 that made people criticize him, he made several game losing mistakes that were purely on him like the teamfight where he walks into the teleport from Morde and gets killed for free or the TP without spending his gold.

If his name was Wildturtle, I know for sure Azael would be shouting "adc diff" after this series as DL was clearly much worse than FBI. But because he is who he is, he gets defended even when he has a horrible series.

And worst of all he blames Treatz for the support pick but the reason Treatz doesn't play many enchanters is that TSM wants him on engage supports because he has a shotcalling role. He has played karma earlier in the season, it's on the coach to pick that for him. It's not like he can't play it.

Edit: Treatz got benched so I guess he does get blamed more than I thought.

To be clear I think DL played one of his worst series ever & said so on the show.

I just think from what I saw it was exaggerated how badly he did & I saw very little talk in comparison about their inability to answer blind pick Morgana etc.

FBI & Huhi completely outclassed them this series & likewise as Treatz didn't get enough blame I felt Huhi didn't get enough credit. Ppl just naturally look more to the AD and tend to ignore the support unless they're doing something super flashy w/ engages or absolutely running it.

In general I just think support should have more attention paid to it & though it's totally understandable for treatz to have a tough time vs the best laning duo in the league atm in his first lcs playoff series he still was a big reason they got clapped. His picks set them at a disadvantage in each game & he was largely invisible throughout the games.

I'm hoping he gets another shot this weekend and can play to his more standard leve...

Then again, this isn't her first rodeo with Sona getting nerfed because of some wonky strategy. Maybe she has gotten used to it

This is correct.

Is Lillia performing as expected? I feel like her playstyle is different enough that there might be some irregularities players don't quite see.

More-or-less. We predicted her to be a difficult-to-optimize and slow-burn champion win-rate wise, so her being only ~46% isn't unexpected. Pro play is our main head-scratcher, leaving us watching whether she is just a new champion fad, a nice alternative to Nidalee and meta pick, or just plain better in pro play than we anticipated. Unfortunately predicting these things when balancing a new champ is a toughie 😂

This is one of the best threads ever.

I love the roller coaster of emotions on this one.

But yeah, gonna give Lillia some more time to see how she performs in playoffs (if she shows up). Asia gave her some games this past few weeks, so erring on the side of caution at the moment until we can feel confident we have room to buff :)
