Yeah it's really stupid. It showed that the biggest weakness of Rift Rivals was not the format or the timing (which both were problems, to be fair) but shitty attitudes of western players constantly complaining about having to play a tournament they didn't care about, while the attitude of the eastern players was basically the complete opposite. A shame.

Well China and Korea are competitive unlike NA vs EU

I'd give a big +1 to path of exile. The mechanics of character movement are pretty similar to league (also top-down view), but it's purely solo PvE.

In addition to the points /u/EsterWithPants made, some champions just have higher winrates at lower elo than higher elos. For example, Aphelios is 50% winrate at masters and only 46% winrate at silver. This is due not only to the difficulty of the champion, but also the coordination burden of their playstyle. Taliyah is another example, her winrate at silver in mid-lane is 49% but goes up to 52% as you get to higher elos.

Inversely, Annie, a simpler champion, is higher winrate at lower elos than higher ones. That tends to make a compelling argument for why simpler champions should be played if you're intending to climb from bronze, silver, etc.

If you want to check these stats for yourself, check sites like ...

Honestly it's poor considering how big the game is and the money you make from it and the most important thing, you have is the client and you can't even have one which works properly.

You wouldn't drive a car without a working steering wheel but you seem to think it's okay at riot to have a bugged client and not fix any issues.

I'm guessing this only happens sometimes? What game modes are you playing when this happens? Also, after you restart your client, filling a bug report through the client (bottom right corner), is a big help for us.

Cool. Thank you for explaining the communication approach.

No problem, and thank you back.

Honestly a great response. I can't imagine how hopeless it must seem to when everyone just bitches about the client when you have half the world trying to use it at the same time.

We’re feeling hopeful. We know it’s on us to deliver a better experience so people don’t have reason to complain.

Comment

The new comms approach on this is to provide a detailed update at least every two months sharing progress on client work. The first blog was about 6 weeks ago, so expect the next one within the next two weeks.

I think we do ourselves and you all a disservice when we put out vague promises to “fix it” (as we admittedly did a year ago in the post referenced by OP). So instead, we’re gonna use blogs like the one coming out in the next two weeks to share very explicit technical information about not just improvements we’re making, but also setbacks—with no bullsh*t about the reality of it. Then...

Yeah where is he?

New001 is very much around. He runs the group that oversees League PC, TFT, and Wild Rift. So you’ll see plenty of Joe but we also want to make sure you see badasses like Jess too.

Probably not revealed, but I'm sure we'll get more teasers for them.

The roadmap will go over those 2 new champs as well as another new champ we haven’t talked about yet

Can you answer if the release date for the two new champions changed with the Covid situation? Or is still the same

So far we have not had to alter the release dates of any of our Champions. This could always change as time goes on, but so far it hasn't

Thanks for the reply! Will this champ not be featured in the upcoming poll then?

No, we wouldn't put a champ in the poll that we are already working on

I mean, it's obviously very early so I wouldn't expect anything more than a few teaserish words on it if you did.

BTW, I'm really excited that we're getting a VGU outside of the poll! Thank you!

yes I will be talking about it in the roadmap
