    GorillA retires

    Posted: 08 Dec 2020 08:01 AM PST

    https://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1srggtl

    "Hello, it's been a while. This is Kang "GorillA" Beom-Hyun.

    The season has waned and the winter has come upon us, and I hope everyone who reads this stays healthy and well. As for me, I have been spending time for myself for the first time in seven-and-a-half years, the first time since I had first debuted as a professional gamer,

    I carefully word myself as I have important news to share with you today.

    I first debuted in 2013. In the eight years that followed it, I ran tirelessly and found many achievements and immense growth. I received immeasurable love and support from the fans. As of this year, I was not able to achieve all results that I would have personally been satisfied with. However, I was able to play at LoL Park and broke the record of 4000 assists in the LCK, making 2020 an unforgettable year for me. Throughout my career as a League of Legends professional gamer, I received the support and interest from the audience to a level I wonder if I'd ever be able to experience again. I was able to play on the truly big stages and take away countless positive memories.

    As I have mentioned before -- I've been spending time to myself these days, for the very first time since I had debuted as a professional player. As a player, I had always given it my all. However, I wonder if in that process I was negligent towards myself as a person -- Myself as Kang Beom-Hyun. Of course, as I walk away I will be leaving behind some goals I was never able to achieve as a professional gamer, and there are regrets that go with them. However, from this point onwards, I would like to invest my time not for myself as a player but for my future self. If you can support me on this decision, I could not ask for anything more.

    This will be the final time I will be reaching out to you as a professional player. However, I will find you again, through other future opportunities.

    I'm grateful that you are with me, in my final moment as a professional gamer, and my first moment as a man, Kang Beom-hyun.

    The global pandemic continues. I hope you do not find this winter too cold. And we will meet again, a warm, sunny day sometime in the future."

    It's a pity Iron Inquisitor Kayle, Cursed Revenant Nocturne, and Black Scourge Singed didn't sell better

    It's a pity Iron Inquisitor Kayle, Cursed Revenant Nocturne, and Black Scourge Singed didn't sell better

    It's my favorite skinline and it's really cheap.

    The gothic style is neat and each character looks very unique, especially for 750 RP. I think the shared splash art may have been the skinline's undoing, as I can imagine people going nuts over the individual skins if they each had a fully detailed splash of their own.

    Money talks, so Riot can't be faulted for not making more in the same style. I just wish it had done better.

    New PBE Skins: Raider Kalista and Kled, Watcher Quinn and Gragas

    Posted: 08 Dec 2020 10:20 AM PST

    Looks like we have a new skin line coming out starting out with these four champions. I have to say Watcher Gragas looks just like Thunderlord Ornn and I literally thought it was the exact same. Gotta love the red vs blue, angel vs devil type of theme or maybe it's Warden/Marauder return?

    edit: confirmed Marauder and Warden

    So uh, I like the new Kayle visual up- Quinn skin

    I love Riot's skin direction and artstyle, but I mean, tell me the difference between these two images.. They're the same picture. Similar lightning, similar pose, similar armor, similar color scheme, similar viewer angle.. :/

    Sivir's Pick Rate is so low (0.5%) that she's not on the "bot" list on U.GG

    Posted: 07 Dec 2020 10:55 PM PST

    I feel like something needs to be addressed here. A champion who's designed to be played in a certain lane should NOT have a pick rate of 0.5%, let alone not being on a list of which lane they are typically played in.

    https://u.gg/lol/champions/sivir/build

    If you look at her rank, it shows ?/? meaning there is no "main" role that she is played in right now

    With the new warden and marauder skins, Shyvana is the only remaining member of the 1000 day skin club.

    Posted: 08 Dec 2020 12:08 PM PST

    Ornn and Azir were taken out with the Elderwood skins, and Skarner + a whole lot of others were taken out with the cosmic skins. Now, Quinn, Gragas, and Kalista are being taken out with the new marauder and warden skins.

    Shyvana has become the new club president (and only current member!) Upcoming additions may be Wukong, who has gone 979 days since his last skin, and Rumble, who has gone 972 days since his last skin. Shyvana is likely going to be the last member of the group, at 1658 days since her last skin.

    Graves needs to either be less tanky, have less mobility, or do less damage.

    Posted: 08 Dec 2020 01:44 PM PST

    Right now he does WAY too much of all three. He's wildly safe taking zero damage in the jungle while having way too much built in tankiness on top of that but he also does more damage than most assassins from range with more mobility than most to boot. Oh yeah, he also has one of the strongest cc abilities in the game.

    But he is a CT champ so I mean I guess he has to be able to completely style on everyone without any thought at all or how could he be fun! Congratulations CT on somehow being able to create a champion that is somehow the least enjoyable champion to play while simultaneously being the least fun champion to play against!

    Mark Yetter's tweet about mythic items is totally misleading

    Posted: 08 Dec 2020 04:36 AM PST

    Mark Yetter's tweet about mythic items is totally misleading

    TLDR: Graph doesn't show "stategic choice" as he presents but what champions in given class need (slow, movement speed, bonus dot, Vamp, etc.)

    He posted tweet with graph which shows build rate of mythic items on different classes and he is presenting it like "strategic choice" which is totally misleading and incorrect. It is like not taking differences in classes in consideration. Sustain mage (Brand) ALWAYS builds Liandry's, Burst mage (LeBlance) always builds Luden's. Yes, there are exception like cassio who can use both but 90% of class have locked their choice in long before game starts. So graph which has around 30% across the class may look balanced but it can show totally unbalanced item.

    https://preview.redd.it/xigkbqg7hy361.png?width=873&format=png&auto=webp&s=4611367194ed1cd120f07c4a019a63a316069fdb

    Every class sets except marksmen was taking in mind differences in class. Every items plays around/fixes champs kits in every class (slow, dash, bonus movement, bonus dot, stealth). Marksmen's mythic should be IE (crit chance -> crit damage per % crit chance), Rageblade (crit chance -> on hit per % crit chance), ER (crit chance -> spellblade % bAD per % crit chance) to fit this better but it looks like somebody just didn't know what to do about them so he made 3 random items which were giving something.

    EDIT: Thank you for so much attention! A lot of comments was about my opinion about mythic items. So I adding old post of mine about it here.

    Drawing High Noon Thresh with only colored dots!

    Posted: 08 Dec 2020 02:55 PM PST

    All done with a 3D Pointillism High Noon Thresh commission! About 110k colored dots in 51 hours, my new highest dot count of all the LoL art I've done! hope y'all like it!

    Imgur Album

    in the album are a few closeup pictures to highlight the details in the artwork as well as a couple of WIP shots! For anyone asking how I count the dots, I draw using grids for better proportions, and count the dots per square, tallying them up in the end. The number isnt exact, but pretty close!

    Mark Yetter tweeted mythic buildrates for individual champions

    Posted: 08 Dec 2020 12:28 PM PST

    Tweet: https://twitter.com/markyetter/status/1336360264531210240?s=21

    Diving a bit deeper on strategic choices for items:

    What really matters is the choices that each champion has (rather than the class). "No champ builds a single mythic more than 75% of games."

    Looking closer at specific champs reveals what's working and not currently.

    There are more graphs in the thread. There's a post on the front page complaining about the grouping of champions into classes, so here are the individual champion rates people were asking for.

    Warwicks R hitbox should be changed.

    Posted: 08 Dec 2020 06:34 AM PST

    Hi! I am a lower elo Warwick main, I started playing league for Warwick and can onetrick him with decent success in most roles. Aside from him not being in the best spot at the moment there is one quality of life change I've always wanted to see. I think that the hitbox for Warwicks R should no longer go behind him. Which if you didn't know part of the hitbox for Warwick R goes behind him so if you are right up behind him he cannot ult anyone except you. I'm not exactly sure why the hitbox is like that I heard that they didn't want it to be used as an easy escape or something but I disagree.

    I think that this hitbox is ultimately detrimental to his gameplay. First it makes Warwicks R a lot less useful in teamfights because you can't ult a priority target if some tank or support just so happens to be right behind you which feels really uninteractive from the player perspective because I can't use my ability in an intuitive way. Second I think using your R as an escape should be a viable option given your general lack of mobility otherwise. There are a ton of champions who can do similar things such as Akali who can use two abilities that are meant for engaging as a way of escaping. Overall I believe that if the hitbox behind Warwick was reduced significantly or removed it would make his R feel a lot less clunky and make it more useful when competing against a lot of the ultra mobile champions that you can often struggle against.

    Edit: TLDR: I want the ult to go in the direction I point it instead of behind me.
