I personally really liked this video. It felt really polished way to get across a small bite sized dev thought, not to mention the hype it gave for Asol CGU.
We really need more dev content like this. League is a massive game, it deserves to shine this way, the devs deserve to be better represented in the work they're doing.
Thanks! We're experimenting with some new video formats. Glad you like this one!
We definitely want the devs to speak more, and this is one way of doing that!
Oh shit Riot wide eh? That's crazy to be fair. Knowing the communities for each game and what comes with that (the memes, language, game knowledge etc...) must be a cool challenge. Prior to you telling me that there is one team handling comms/content for Riots' Games holistically, one could've safely deduced that each game has their own "localized" team.
It's a fun challenge! I play all of Riot's games, though. And our team does as well for the most part.
So each game/product has their own mini community team, with a lead, community managers, social media folks, influencer managers, etc. You get the idea. But the team that actively creates this content is central because our work is super niche!
/u/Cashmiir Do the next one at noms. I want someone to explain a new syndra ultimate using meatballs as props.
🤔
do you even work here anymore???
I love content like this. The behind the scenes Irelia, Morde, & Panth rework videos were amazing. Would love a more consistent strategy when it comes to pushing out content of this nature.
Thanks! So to pull the curtain back a little (get outta here RiotAether don't DM me on Slack ty), the team that handles this type of video content (the team I'm on, which also includes written content like Champ Insights) has ramped up a lot in terms of size and scalability. But we are a Riot-wide team, meaning we handle all of Riot's games and products like music.
All of this is to say, we're working on itTM
But we also need to work on other games ;)
I thought Stashu was working on this rework though?
Rob is ASol's producer!
phrasing
...unless?
jk I'm sorry Rob
Cashmiir whoever came up with the title is SPEAKING MY LANGUAGE.
💙☕
It was a joint effort, but our visual designer Tee (y'all might remember her as Mom Cat from patch notes past) came up with the final!
Read moreThis same Rioter was playing around with an Asol rework years ago as a personal project. I wonder if it will be somewhat similar.
Passive: Something like his current E active that activates after moving straight for a while kind of like Taliyah? Except you have full control of him like Kayn wall walking.
Q: Stand in one spot and breath fire. It follows your cursor and costs mana per second to continue spewing fire. Leaves a burning trail in its wake. Idk what that trail does yet. BTW you can use this ability on towers because star fire melts them in my head and A Sol has a line or something about not caring about them.
W: Live R but resized and re-balanced to be a basic ability. So basically ...
This is that Rioter in the video 😉
He is an ASol lover
and Bel’Veth, the monstrous manta mommy Void Empress.
Riot is as horny as it's fanbase
😏
So thats why you guys dont publish concept art anymore
We still publish it!
Never forget Darkin Sett
Y'all going to make me live to regret publishing that concept art.
Better Rioter Wins
It wasn't me, ya goob
Been playing since Caitlyn's release, never played with a Rioter.
Then in 2019, became a Rioter. So uh that's how I fixed that problem I guess!
(Hi Marty!)
Yeah I also had never played with a Rioter and have been playing since Season 2. Then in my first few weeks as a Rioter I got one on my team.
And since then I've been matched against coworkers. I like to sh*t talk them in slack as the game happens.
I heard that Reav3 wears the freshest clothes, eats at the chillest restaurants and hangs out with the hottest dudes. I can only dream to one day be half the man he is.
do you need me to write anything else? 😦🔫
Some say he has a 10-foot vertical leap, but I've never seen it.
Are you perhaps also a connoisseur of sweaters as well?
Nah LA too hot
Looks like you are at gun point m8, blink twice if you need help..
lmao nah legit I have nothing but respect for the man and I've enjoyed working with him over the years. He's passionate about the community and about League, and he's a true delight to work with.
We also have similar senses of humor so his jokes always get me
May I ask if you are Lexical? and who will continue the champ roadmaps?
I'm not. I'm Riot Cashmiir and sometimes I write cursed Shaco fan fiction with Riot Phlox.
I work with folks like Reav3, Lexical, and other devs to help make their words good.
Oh i meant insight as in communication in reddit threads. Like how he told us about Belveth not being a monster and other stuff.
And we now have two new writers which means more content!
YYYYYEEEEEESSSSSSSSHHHHHH.
We are continuing to work with Reav3 in his new role. So don't worry!
No worries here. I believe you and other rioters are also very open with communicating with fans and answering their doubts. Your efforts are all appreciated.
Thank you for taking the time to reply and ease doubts, you all are probably the most open devs(idunno term) ive ever seen in any gaming community.
Again you don't have to worry. I'm sure Reav3 will still be on Reddit. The man loves champions
f**k yeah Warwick gaming
The best boi
Nooo my champion insights and possessed man speaking purple lines.
Come back.
Gratz reav3.
Champion Insights are continuing! They're owned by the team I'm on (we also work on the dev videos). And we now have two new writers which means more content!
