For Maokai and Ezreal the fix was just about flipping the images. These were images that were flipped during the painting process and just not flipped back when the image was completed (digital artists flip the canvas a lot to get fresh eyes on the painting while it's in progress)

For Swain, we would have needed to repaint part of the image since flipping it would put Swain's demon arm on the wrong side (this was a mistake on our part, not an artifact of flipping the canvas) and given that making changes beyond that point would have put instability into the launch build, I thought it best not to change this right now.

I will say, unlike Ezreal and Maokai, where the reversed pieces were major character defining elements, Swain's knee pad less of a key characteristic, so we may not make this change. We will however keep a closer eye on champion art in the future.

Just saw the post about Vi as well. Will look into getting her and Swain fixed and do a sweep of all of our future content today.

Thanks for you reply! BTW, does "the fix" include Ezreal, Maokai and Swain?

Ah yes, then tsukuyomi and gg

Ah, the summer of 2005. Got to run Reasoning Gate Turbo and just wipe that player out with the OTK.

Also I loved that we made these tokens and gave 'em to people for dueling at Comic-Con '06. (Even though the format was long changed by then)

I am hoping that maintenance is still being done and we shouldn't even be allowed to login in. If it is completed, then this is a huge issue.

Hey folks, hijacking for vis. Have no fear, your content is safe—some routine maintenance on the Americas shard went slightly awry, but we're getting it sorted out. Americas shard should be back up ~11 AM PT.

Imagine this thing throwing Kato as he throws Shiraza. It would be the first case of someone going supersonic in Runeterra.

Excellent on the level up I agree, but are they going to continue effecting the timer because that’s an issue I had with the game, make all the cool level ups you want so long as I don’t rope because of it

That's something very top-of-mind for us, and the good news is that turn timers should already be extending based on the duration of the level-up. So a 4 second level-up is already adding 4 seconds to your timer.

as an artist in training, studying hard every waking hour, this is the stuff that motivates me. Barely have time to play the game, or any game for that matter, but I tune in to see all the animations, card arts, UI and get a glimpse of my dream every time. Keep it up you guys, please continue to make me want to be a part of it

I've been lucky enough to spend a lot of time with Riot artists and SMV, and the number one thing I've learned is that art is mostly a skill, not a talent. So keep it up and you'll get there!

When I met the SMV folk I had just assumed they were all born art prodigies, but the reality is each person has their own story and started at different times in their lives. They all sucked at drawing at one point in their lives! The one thing they had in common was their dedication and hunger to constantly get better.

That's a lesson I've tried to take with me to different parts of my life. I still can't draw, but I'm getting better at some other things :)

I'm sure Swain is one of those marked as SPOILER.

Geez, Swain's level up animation will be so absurd...

Well crap now the expectations are too high. All the level-ups you haven't seen are going to be TERRIBLE and you should expect to be disapointed.

(See what I did there?)

You are actually putting a 3 mana 4/4 in already, holy powercreep batman. Im kinda scared for the future now.

I think that's fair, but keep in mind we have a more aggressive commitment to Live Balance than most (all?) of our big competitors so we do have some protection in case things get out of control.

Can you explain what a Captain Planet is?

It's an old cartoon where people combine their powers and make a superhero who saves the Earth!
