They're all candidates for more work or removal generally

Hey do you know something about "leash range on monsters highlighting" in jungle? No news since announcing it in April 30.

Not sure where that is right now, sorry. Are you interested in having that in?

Definitely possible, I feel like that space is a bit light

Is it possible for you guys to give Sanguine Blade the ally proximity treatment like Hullbreaker has instead of deleting it outright, so assassins will stand a chance in the side lane as well?

I could see us revisiting sanguine in the future. I think it fills some nice spots in the item space

Think it could be cool

There will be a post about the tought process behind this item, like a post or a tweet? ( maybe it already exists and I missed it )

Definitely the patch notes will have some info, maybe somewhere else?

Don’t mean to hijack, but is there a reason that sanguine blade is being replaced by this? Doesn’t seem like an item that current sanguine blade users would buy. Is there a reason both can’t be in the game? I see how buying both would be strong but it would also mean you aren’t going anything like titanic third, and a gank would still negate the extra sanguine blade effects.

Sanguine was really niche, very few characters wanted it and of those many only wanted it some of the time. I think that item and the space it filled was cool so maybe it comes back in another form some time.

There is no way that this item makes it to live like that, this is way broken.

We're definitely watching the power level carefully, internally and when it releases

I personally think it's decently valuable that some characters index much harder into certain stats. It's also not that Ziggs doesn't use AP well, he still does, just not quite as well as some other characters in his class.

I also think for Ziggs specifically here it's nice that this damage is coming in at level 9 so his midgame spike is sharp which is distinct from some other mages. This is especially true because of his anti-tower focus where power spiking while plates are still up is good. That's not even considering the waveclear breakpoints it gives him which is pretty substantial for quite a lot of things.

At the end of the day it's a fairly small change either way and your point is absolutely fair.

IIRC I read something about Riot looking into proplay bound champions this season. Is this still on the table or do I misremember something.

Also would Syndra be in there?

She likely would be on the short list

Imagine a world where Ziggs can use his satchel offensively because it executes champions at or below 10% health :D That would be so cool : - )

It would be sick lol

Looking in from the outside on that project it's looking pretty good
