Pretty much. Big announcements we'll do through more formal and polished approaches like Dev Videos, Nexus articles, Riot Pls etc. My hope with these posts is to cover things that we don't get to in those places, or to provide additional context/rationale on things we do cover there that some people want to dig deeper into.

Hi, it makes me happy to hear that :)

If you earned everything from this point on you'd get around 9000 more points. The last reward is at 16000, so you'd have a bit of time to spare even.

Not forgotten about. Plan is to talk about ranked rewards, both for the initial set and going forwards later this set.

Lemme check with the SR team, see if they've got something planned already or would like to jump into that discussion themselves. If not I'll get something into an upcoming post.

I assume support item changes and duo lane XP changes are things you're interested in here. Anything else I'm missing?

Piggybacking on top comment - I got my dates wrong here, forgot that 9.23 was a 3 week patch instead of a two week one. New units should be on PBE around the 25th of November instead as a result, apologies for getting that wrong.

Next week on the 19th or 20th depending on which region you're in.

Yep, our goal is to have a main set that's always available in normals/ranked with older sets brought back temporarily at times. Not sure on exact format for that yet (a weekend tournament? a 2 week mini ranked season? etc). Also not sure when we'll start doing so. Definitely want to give people the chance to replay older sets though.

I expect we'll see her at some point, not sure when yet though

He will yes.

We'll be in it for the long term. Playerbase numbers do fluctuate, especially when there hasn't been new content for a bit. As Jag mentions even towards the end of Set 1 they were still in a good spot though and Twitch isn't very reflective of playerbase size. The addition of the mobile client next year is also expected to increase the playerbase significantly.

Second time we tried out Bard with his R as well - he was a champ in the original prototype set we build before set 1 for a while. That set had similar traits to set 1, though meaningfully different content (e.g. Illaoi as a low cost Pirate Brawler).

Yeah, my bad here, I forgot we'd swapped Rod of Mages out :(

Yep

Uh, sure, nailed it.

That's a Rod of Mages, not a Rod of Ages. I'll give you one guess what it does to the unit it's put on!

Edit: Apologies folks, I'd forgotten we'd swapped Rod of Mages out as the Mage spatula item :(

Ah, I'm not the person to answer then, will have to leave that to the LoR team :)

Yeah, you could burn through them all in one day once they're all released.

For the first 10 days every day a new reward becomes available. You can then play a game to claim a reward any time during the 4 weeks.

One game per reward. You just need to play 10 games over the next 4 weeks, with a limit of 1 reward per day that's passed during the first 10 days.
