    Happy for Broxah and TL. Now that this is out of the way the narrative will shift away from TL playing with their sub jungler. Do we expect TL to be more dominant now with their starting jungler?

    If Riot really wants to buff Amumu over and over, maybe try to reduce his 200 mana cost on R

    Posted: 06 Feb 2020 07:56 AM PST

    Currently there are only 4 champions left in the game who require more than 100 mana to cast their ult (excluding increased mana costs over time like Anivia, Kog'Maw, Kassadin,...):

    • Vi: 100/125/150 mana (@lvl 6/11/16)
    • Amumu: 100/150/200 mana (@lvl 6/11/16)
    • Zilean: 125/150/175 mana (@lvl 6/11/16)
    • Twisted Fate: 150/125/100 mana (@lvl 6/11/16)

    (I'm not talking about base spells, just ults.)

    Sure the current buff on the PBE is nice but couldn't this buff be added on top of the current one? It's not that Amumu is balanced around this high mana cost. The reason of this high mana cost is just because he got released back in the days where such high mana costs were normal and it isn't standardized (yet).

    LEC Match of the Week: G2 Esports vs Fnatic

    Zven on his impressive record, responds to Doublelift, defends TSM

    Posted: 06 Feb 2020 03:36 PM PST

    If you choose to "fill" for your team, then you shouldn't have any autofilled teammate.

    Posted: 06 Feb 2020 08:43 AM PST

    In my opinion, the most problematic aspect of autofill is having a teammate who's consistently performing way below your elo's average in every single match you play.

    Regardless of winning or losing, matches feel like an uphill battle for both teams where, each team, is trying to carry their respective autofill to victory.

    Ever since LoL implemented role selection, the people who are rewarded with higher elo, are the ones who specialized in a specific role as opposed to the previous seasons where higher elos could fill pretty well.

    So maybe, having this option of avoiding the bad experience an autofilled player brings to the table altogether by being the autofill yourself, playing as "fill" would become more desirable and people would become more proficient at being decent at their role while filling since this system would add a way to reward those players who know how to play every role.

    Having a part of your playerbase willing to play whatever role you throw at them is probably the best solution to the necessity of having players being autofilled. Maybe even more buffs to the "fill" option like slightly higher elo gains or blue essence gains could make the matchmaking a lot healthier for everyone.

    Matchmaking is Autofilling people into roles that their teammates qued primary

    Posted: 06 Feb 2020 09:25 AM PST

    Last game, I qued Jungle Primary / AD Secondary, and a teammate of mine qued AD primary. Matchmaking gave me AD and him Jungle, we would have never known if he didn't ask if he could have AD from me randomly then we realize what just happened.

    This current game I'm in, same shit just happened, someone got autofilled AD when we had a teammate that qued AD primary...

    Matchmaking is absolutely broken right now, make sure to ask people to swap if you get filled, because theres a good chance they don't want their lane either.

    Akali and Yuumi Hotfixes Inc

    Posted: 06 Feb 2020 11:35 AM PST

    /u/RiotScruffy tweeted:

    We're working on hotfix buffs for Akali and Yuumi, who landed under our targets in 10.3. More details this afternoon when we have it all done.

    This is in light of the recent changes to them in 10.3 nerfing Akali's Q energy, W MS and changing her first R to be targeted and Yuumi's empowered Q and heal changes.

    Edit: Changelists from Riot Scruffy:

    Akali:

    E

    Base damage increased from 40 - 160 to 50 - 190.

    R

    Cooldown reduced from 160 - 100 seconds from 120 - 60.

    Base damage increased from 85 - 215 to 125 - 325.

    Yuumi:

    Q

    Base damage increased from 40 - 165 to 40 - 190.

    E

    Base heal increased from 70 - 190 to 70 - 210.

    Aphelios' kit is not salvageable from a clarity perspective and he should not be in the game in his current form. Here's one idea for how Riot could save him.

    Posted: 05 Feb 2020 08:17 PM PST

    Why Aphelios should be reworked or removed from the game

    Riot has definitely released overloaded kits and taken three paths to balancing them: (1) remove pieces of their kit until they were balanceable in SoloQ without being 100% presence in pro play; or (2) accept that whatever is left of their kit is unbalanceable and make them 40% average winrate high elo specialist champions that can only really be piloted by elite players; or (3) do both (here's looking at you, Akali). The problem is that Aphelios' kit is so bad from a clarity perspective that it doesn't matter what his winrate is or how many of his passives they remove. It's impossible to see both of his guns, and the number of combinations means that it's impossible to predict with any certainty what to look for or what will happen in a teamfight.

    Fix his kit by making it become simpler as the game goes on

    I think he needs to be more like Kayn except instead of a single transformation he starts with his current kit and has to remove more and more of his guns as the game progresses. This effectively forces him to to select into specialization (sustain, range, utility, damage). And this also means that his full kit will only be available to him during laning phase when it's reasonable to ask people to pay more attention to his trading patterns and when clarity is higher due to fewer champions on the screen.

    You could tune the rate with which guns are pruned (as in, at what levels) to make sure that he's down to 2 but early mid-game. At that point he'll have a clear identity in the game but players get all the satisfaction of the different gameplay patterns his kit provides. It also forces real tradeoffs: once you get rid of a gun, you can't get it back, so you need to balance what your team needs from you right now with what the optimal gun is at 20, 30, or 40 minutes.

    Riot could then balance his guns around giving him the power curve they want by buffing the base damages of each gun as well as the scaling of their effects. That way you could easily tune each of their playstyles without being worried that it will just add power to his kit in absolute terms.

    Why this version of Aphelio is good game design

    Most importantly, I think this also makes him completely unique in terms of game design: he's the only champion in the game whose kit is determined by what players choose to remove, not choose to add (think reverse Udyr if his skills didn't suck). This has the nice extra effect of making it so that you can have very clever and unique uses of his kit in the laning phase when it's most noticeable, giving him a ton of skill expression and a high skill ceiling, while reducing the power of his overloaded kit in the hands of good players, which is what makes him such a balancing nightmare from a pro/SoloQ perspective.

    You could also easily motivate this from a lore perspective by having his connection with his sister grow weaker over time (due to the energy cost of their connection or the high summoning power needed to sustain all the guns at once).

    tl;dr: give Aphelios access to all his guns at the start of the game and force him to get rid of one at a time until he has only two left.

    [EDIT: Didn't expect this to blow up. Just wanted to note that I don't think he's OP at all and I've played as, with and against him plenty. I'm a multi-season Diamond player who's been playing for several years, so braindead "git gud" comments are just lazy. I also don't think pruning his guns is necessarily the best idea, it's just one. My point was that improving clarity of his guns alone doesn't solve the problem with his kit, because it doesn't tell you what's coming next. Despite what people have said, this opinion is not controversial. There have been several pros who have said outright that he's incredibly difficult to track and shouldn't be in the game in his current state. My point was only to offer one way to rework his kit. Despite all the 5Head memes on release, the funny thing is that he actually has a very weak identity as a champion. He sort of does everything and is constrained by the rotation of his guns, so he actually feels like a mish-mash of many different ADCs. He has unique mechanics, but not a unique playstyle. I personally don't have trouble playing against him, I don't think he's OP, I just think his kit design has fatal flaws that will relegate him to cannon minion or permaban status without changing the fact that playing against him is a nightmare from a clarity perspective.]

    The XP graph in LCK is great

    Posted: 06 Feb 2020 03:41 AM PST

    LCK production is killing it this season with the changes they made to their interface and new things they added. I love it!

    This is the graph I'm talking about: https://i.imgur.com/hUHPxr9.png

    I think it's a neat way to point out the XP difference. I hope the other broadcasts add something like that too.

    It would be great if we can have a feature on the client that shows us our current Ping before joining a game.

    Posted: 06 Feb 2020 11:17 AM PST

    Alot of us sometimes suffer from unexpected high Ping/Latency due to several reasons, i personally do, it would be a healthy feature to add on the client to be honest, checking your ping before joining a game can be very helpful and can lead to less negative games ( Disconnecting, high ping cant play/cant move. Etc ).

    I mean its already there on the loading screen, so might as well add it as a feature on the client.
