I've written this before, but I am happy to write it again.

Femme people, folks with accents, folks who speak other languages, folks who do not want to speak, and some other cases I am not representing would be negatively impacted by any form of opt-out voice chat. It would also set expectations in a way that would cause issues for folks who chose not to engage.

Any update on being able to mass disenchant?

It’s on our list of potential projects, and is currently in design discovery.

Hey Cadmus, are there any plans to ever bring Mastery tokens to ARAM? Once upon a time a Rioter commented on looking into it but nothing ever materialized.

Stay tuned ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
