Cool!
Is the hairstyle and hourglass and bandage on the cheek at all related to Kay? 👀
No

Which of the two scrappy, Filipino electricity-wielding gun-havers with hair in two buns that glows when using their powers came first in production? Zeri or Spark?
Was it a cross promotional idea thing?
We will go into more detail on that in the devblog, but yes since her inception champions team and valorants agent team collaborated and worked on Neon/Zeri together. Both teams contributed to both characters
wish you guys actually gave her brown skin tho lol. she’s the same shade as the white and east asian champions.
We actually did darken her skin a bit more but it was after this trailer was made
The art that was on your universe page? That leaked art?
Yes
maybe she’s filipino like neon
She is inspired by Filipino culture yes
Eh, kinda heard it too, makes it seem like she is intended to be kind of Filipino, like the simultaneously releasing Valorant champion with the same looks and abilities?
Her voice actress is indeed Filipino
/u/reav3 are you able to share if Zeri has any cultural influences
Yes, she was inspired by Phillipino culture
Shes cool. Cant wait to hear her theme. Btw how do you say her name??
Like Jerry but with a Z
Good to see that the splash art posts were seriously just overreactions she looks way better her and the champion looks like fun.
That leaked splash was a old unfinished splash art FYI
Hey mr. Reav3. Will we get a champion roadmap before the new year or after? We are curious about the next champions :)
Not this year no. The next champion roadmap will be in video form for season start next year
Hey Reav3, just wondering here. Is the udyr dev blog still coming this year? Thank you
It will be part of Season Start next year
Sorry, do you mean the champion roadmap will be coming this week or the ruination retro blog?
The Ruination retro
Is the plan still to release it before the end of the year? As far as I know Riot is on break from this point onwards and I wasn't really expecting anything else to come out but I would be happy to be wrong.
Yes, it will be out this week
hello, I would like to know (if it is not a bother) when you propose to do a rework do you have a stipulated release date from the beginning? , or do they only release it when you decide they are done?
When we decide they are done
Fair enough. Are there plans for a champion roadmap soon? We’ve gone a while without a new information regarding champ releases.
Very soon yes. We will be doing another video form Champion roadmap at Season start
Woah that is wild, also thanks for throwing in Ekko as well, forgot about him. Is it atypical for non gameplay impacting changes to swing popularity that much
Hmm, Legendary skins will sometimes boost a Champions playrate for a bit. Also big events like Spirit Blossom which rewarded you for using the champions had a huge impact on champion playrate, but generally no, not like this.
Could you possibly grab Viktor, Jayce, Caitlyn, Jinx and Vi's breadth and depth, I was curious if Arcane impacted their popularity
Its pretty wild
You are sitting on a potential goldmine with how popular arcane is rn, and your reasoning is... clarity? With all due respect, that whole silhouette argument was thrown out the window years ago with all the skins we have these days. Hell, I have to rely on sound cues to even make out certain abilities due to how unclear the VFX is on certain skins.
The reasoning wasn't clarity alone. It was that to solve clarity and giving him a source of power to fight with we would risk betraying who he was on the show, just to force him to fit into LoLMoba. Once again, not saying we will never bring Silco to LoL, just that we currently don't have any plans to do it.
what would he even do as a champ tbh ? make your ad carry drink shimmer and become a juggernaut that can't be 1v1d by the other support ? what about the 3 other spells ?
He feels too "normal" to be a champ imo and seeing him do some insane shit would betray his portrayal in the show.
Most important part to me is that apparently, there could be TFT units that aren't even part of runeterra in the future
This basically nails the reason why we have no current plans to bring Silco to LoL. His silhouette for one would not even be close to passing our unique silhouette bar, which is very important for gameplay clarity in LoLMoba (We believe you should be able to quickly recognize who a champion is regardless of which skin they are using by seeing their silhouette) He also doesn't have a clear source of power that would translate into a good League kit. We could attempt to solve both of those problems, but in doing so he would likely be so different from who he was in the show that he wouldn't be the character everyone fell in love with anymore. Not saying these aren't problems they could maybe be solved one day, just saying we have no current plans or pursuing Silco in LoLMoba
Is there any increase in likelihood for Silco to come to league now that he has a model made for TFT?
Currently we have no plans to bring Silco to LoL. While he works in TFT, his model would not be even close to hitting out unique silhouette bar for gameplay clarity (Which is super important for LoLMoba) He also doesn't have a clear source of power that would translate into a LoL kit. We would have to change him significantly from who he was in the show to make him a good Champion in LoL. While this doesn't mean we will never attempt to solve all those problems (if they are solvable while keeping him close enough to the character everyone fell in love with from the show) , as of right now we currently aren't planning on bringing him to LoLMoba
