Hey, unrelated but I just wanted to say how great the behind the scenes Spirit Blossom posts have been, you do a great job putting them together!

Thank you! There are two more coming up! We'll be diving deeper into the two videos (The Path, An Ionian Myth and Kin of the Stained Blade) and the sound design done for the skins. Really excited to have those two come out! It's been a long journey and I'm honored to tell the devs' stories.

So, is the amount different for everyone? If so, what determines how much a rioter can give away?

It's the same for everyone. 40k I believe per year.

Sorry for invading this reply but does Zac have a future on TFT?

I asked a rioter in a TFT thread back in the first TFT version if Zac was gonna be added to TFT and he said he would like Zac to be added but 3 Sets later and we are still here with no Zac :(

I'm confident we'll eventually get every LoL champ into a TFT set. Some will take longer than others though if they don't line up smoothly with the set themes we're going for and/or what the traits within those themes need. Zac's going to be tougher than many to work in, though I'm confident we'll get to him at some point. Apologies for lack of any specifics there.

You use American terminology to portray the death of EU servers. I am suspicious..

Would it help if I told you the EU DC team put them out of their misery personally after the refresh?

There was a "leak" about an upcoming Legendary skin for Camille. Is this at least close to be true or no?

Sorry, but we don't want to comment on leaks, whether real or fake. In both cases it just encourages behavior that undercuts fun surprises for those players who like those (either because they know what's coming or they get false hopes built up).

Is there a reason Nautilus was chosen to receive the worst and cheapest skin of the year?

Conqueror skins go through a separate assessment process to regular skins. Naut's still eligible for a regular skin based off how long it's been since his last one as a result.

Looks like it is still bugged on the PBE right now, so there is definitely no fix coming in 10.16 and I don't even think it is on the radar right now.

Maybe u/AzuBK, /u/riotphlox or another Rioter could fix/forward it if they read this. Otherwise, maybe try reaching out to a dev on Twitter. In that case, if you get an answer (or don't), message me again!

I'm not in the office today (whatever that means nowadays...), but I'll make sure QA is aware of this bug so we can get it fixed.

That's probably just daftness on my part. I wrote ARAM automatically, I'll check with the team, it's probably not included though given as you say there's little agency and it would just dilute differences

From what i can gather rioters have a monthly (or weekly, i don't remember) amount of RP that they are allowed to gift or giveaway on streams

It's an annual amount called the Riot Pls Gifting Fund. :D

I see this causing an additional problem of teammates flaming their worst performing member to AFK so that the rest of the team can get lower LP losses.

Just have to weight out that negative with the current reality of AFKer's having the "power" to make their whole team lose full LP by afking.

You are describing what we call the "degenerate case". This comes up a ton in discussions about any system that will impact a large number of players. They will always be abused in some way by a very small percentage. We take this sort of thing very seriously and put a good deal of effort towards mitigating these cases.

I think they don't sell EU servers because they still use them.

As a member of the data center team this comment cuts deep, lol. I can tell you confidently all of the original EU servers are in a farm upstate enjoying their retirement.

Incredible celebration there at the end

I have so much regret I didn't say this when watching the win celebration!!

win celebration. "I caught a sea bass! No, wait—it's at least a C+!"

AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH

What a fun game to cast, and exactly what I needed to lift my spirits. So stoked that the games today have been entertaining and better quality than previous weeks. Also listening to how excited Ender was just brought so much joy to me :D The force is strong with my padawan.

Hey Meddler!

I dont know if this is the right place to ask, but is there any information about a new Champion Roadmap Post coming?

Current plan is that the next roadmap will be sometime after the Marksman releases

The graph isn't super clear, but you see how every line has a narrow end and a bulbous end?

It isn't clear from Meddler's post which of those it was, but it doesn't really matter. The bulbous end is "breadth/depth on 10.15." Note how all but two of the champion lines went up, and to the right? That indicates an increase in both breadth and depth.

The Kindred line says that prior to 10.15, Kindred was a below-median champion in terms of play rate by either metric. They saw approximately 55% of the median play rate of a champion (breadth), and the people who played Kindred would play them about 90% as often as any other champion (depth). Keep in mind, that's relative to other champions. The graph is not claiming that Kindred players pick her in 90% of their games, or that she's in 55% of games. It's all relative to the median breadth/depth sta...

Whats interesting about the Yasuo change, is that historically Yasuo players play nothing but Yasuo, which is why his depth pre spirit blossom event started so high. Almost nothing gets Yasuo mains to stop playing Yasuo, but this event lowering his depth but increasing his breadth means way more people are playing him, but mains are playing him less, which would imply that the spirit bonds system got Yasuo players to actually play other champs. Gotta get that favor

Purely story
