u/reav3 any chance we can get confirmation on Briar's (is that how you spell her name) champion class? Skirmisher? Mage? Tank?
Edit: Roadmap that was released makes it sound like diver/skirmisher for those wondering.
Diver
So, this week or next week?
Should be end of this week
Running away from the topic... u/Reav3 are there any ETA on the new champion roadmap?
Yeah should be out later this month/early next month
It is probably more likely if you don't get your champ you still get your role or something like that

How it exactly works is that you pick 2 Preferred Champs and Positions. These have to be 2 different champs and 2 different positions. Then you will have to pick one "priority queue" champ/position. The positions for that pick will change depending on what roles are currently low pickrate. You will get one of your preferred picks a majority of the time but in order to make queue times are quick we need to make sure we can fill the lower priority positions when needed.
Any plans on introducing non-randomised short gameplay modes or changing SR rules for QP to make the games slightly faster? As IRL caught up to me and started eating my time I've realised that I can only really comit to short queues like Nexus Blitz or ARAM. Except, aside from NB all those short queues have random champ selcets, which sucks if you want to play specific champs.
Its certainly a interesting thought. If quickplay ends up a very popular way to play its entirely possible we make more changes to the mode to better serve the audience that ends up loving it
I know I asked before (sorry if it's annoying) but will sojyoo still do the concept art for "artistic midlaner" since I heard she now works on the Valorant team, if she left could you update us on who does the concept art now?
LoneWingy took it over
What age is Nunu?
Like 8-9
He's cool and all but where is my beloved darkin assasin?
SOON tm
Im really happy with Milio and I agree that I want another male enchanter down the line, but will you still make more feminine champs for toplane? I remember you said a year or so ago you wanted more female champs for toplane but apart from Gwen we only had Ksante, so is there still a chance for more female toplaners?
Of course!
But they are young male champs. I’m just curious what made it so important to prioritize a male champ in 12-14 range specifically?
Tween is significantly different then child or teen, just like Zoe is a different then Lux or Annie
Read moreThank you and the riot team for this breath of fresh air in the enchanter space. I'm a long-time player and fan of enchanters in this game, and I'm also a dude! Coincidentally I'm also hispanic, and I appreciate that Milio as a resident of Ixtal is some form of representation.
I'm also gonna risk my neck in saying this personal belief, but I want to share: Milio's representation not only combats the common stereotype of "only women play enchanters", but he also combats the hispanic-media stereotype of "hispanics characters are always morally gray/ambiguous or ill-intentioned".
On the topic of alternative male enchanter explorations and other lack of representation in League, I want to bring to your attention a big quality missing from every champion in league: Eyeglasses! No champion by default wears seeing eyeglasses in League of Legends (Vayne wears sunglasses and some other few champions wear goggles), but a quick google search says 60% of all people wear eyeglas...
Glasses is definitely on our list of things we need to get to
as colombian I want to know if Milio was inspired by Encanto, all of him remember my culture!
We we’re definitely looking at encanto as one of the inspirations since it came out around when we started on this champ
Thank you so much! As long as we still get a hot enchanter male someday, I'll be happy.
I was just absolutely terrified that someone would take a look at Milio's data and go "Oh, this didn't significantly increase the rate of male supports played among the people looking for hot males, so the experiment is a failure, let's never do it again." Sometimes the way data is used within Riot has come to conclusions that I personally haven't found to be... the most objective lol.
But yeah, as long as there's still an understanding that people want a hot male enchanter, and that isn't going to be infinitely put on hold forever because of Milio, I'm happy with that. Thank you!
I think the data generally shows that most players want to play attractive, hot champions, regardless of gender :)
Nunu? Ekko?
Ekko is in his teens like 15-17, and Nunu is much younger like 8-9.
I know it's now really, really far down the line, but could we someday have a hot male pure-enchanter support? When a Rioter (I forget who or where) said Riot wanted to increase gender diversity in enchanters (who have primarily conventionally attractive female options), I was really hoping for/expecting a thirst-able male a la Rakan but without the engage part of the kit. Milio, while I'm happy he exists for the people that love him already, doesn't satisfy that given that he's a literal child.
There's still IMO very much a demand for thirst-trap male pure-enchanters, and literally zero options currently. :(
Like I said, I know it'll be way, way down the line (probably 5+ years given the champion slowdown), but it's genuinely disappointing to have so little diversity in a role I care about so much despite having played for thirteen years.
That was me that said that back in the day :). Yeah this is something we know we need, though we intentionally wanted to keep this release away from other make supports like Rakan/Taric. Understand those aren't pure enchanters, and understand we still need that space. We also realized we had no male characters in the 12-14 age range, so that felt more important to prioritize at this moment.
Have they announced what role he will be in?
Enchanter support
Don't worry she is still is development. I know you are all excited as the rework is really cool. But the tech for it is more complex then most mid scopes so she is going to take a little longer. Should hopefully be out sometime in spring
Hey Reav3 will champ team and their products be the only team in the gameplay initiative impacted by the team movements or did you guys have to pull folks from SR and Game Loop to help out as well. Would it affect things like preseason or ranked changes now
We do have a few designers/artists from SR working on the game mode, but none currently from Game Loop.
It seems like there's not a ton of staff to go around.
At least, last year the given reason NB didn't get off the ground was that the game modes staff was used to shore up the PIE team. And now here you're saying that champ teams and other teams around Riot (and Gameplay Initiative) are being short-staffed to help beef up game modes. Even when beefed up, the game modes team has also cut regular event modes for 6 months, to pump out a new mode by summer.
Since there's always some content that needs to be placed on the backburner because there aren't enough Rioters available, are there any plans to increase staff to avoid this "shuffle"?
Yes of course. But you have to hire and then ramp people up. If we just starting hiring for the gamemodes team, by the time we hired all the people needed and then ramped then all up we would have no hope of shipping a game mode this summer. You have to bring over veteran people that are already experienced in our tools and design principles. It's not always a question of how much staff we CAN hire, but of actually hiring good people and then getting them trained up onto a team. That takes time.
