@Sabby @_itsjackielee GZ CEO NEXT

I GOT PROMOTED ‼️ I’ve leveled up to a BRAND MANAGER III of League of Legends, North America at Riot Games! Thankful every day that I get to deliver campaigns for players, by a player. From digital marketing to OOH to experiences, I hope I continue to grow and do it all! 🤩

@RiotHjarta 😱 congrats

Announcement! I am leaving Riot Games on April 17th. It's been a crazy adventure for 9 or so years, and I'm forever grateful. I'm about to start a coffee shop in Culver City in Los Angeles, opening soon. Stay tuned :)

This what the “What’s the move?” at 4am person does when they’re forced to go home.

@nicole_clash Wrongful termination stuff aside your idea is smart, I don’t know wtf other people aren’t getting LOL but maybe it’s hard if you don’t have any technical ability related to this

Yesterday was my last day at Riot Games. It’s been 3 years since I dropped out and joined the company. And despite the way my relationship with Riot ended, this has been the best learning experience I could have asked for. I had the chance to work with an amazing, passionate group of people, and count it among my many blessings. I was fired. I did not leave, and I was not laid off. I’m not going to come on here and pretend otherwise. They flat out fired me, and offered me 15k to keep my mouth shut. Needless to say, I did not take them up on that. The official reason for my termination that I was given was about an Applied AI pitch deck I made. I had put it up as a website with a password protection on it before sharing the site with our execs. They are claiming that I broke confidentiality. While I highly doubt that this was the real reason, I’m not gonna open myself up to libel by saying here what I believe the real reason to be. There has been no proof that anyone outside of Riot has seen the pitch deck, and that the security measures I’ve taken were not enough. What is more absurd, however, is that our CEO and various other execs have read it, told me how much they enjoyed reading it, and further encouraged me to explore the concepts I’ve outlined in the deck. Zero mention of needing me to take it down. If this was the decision of a random middle manager up my chain of command, I would have found that a lot easier to accept. What broke me though was the fact that an exec who I viewed as a role model, one of two people that I shared the deck with originally, who explicitly told me to share it out further, he knew about my termination ahead of time. And he did nothing to stop it. I was sad. Then I was pissed. Then I was sad and pissed. Now though, all I feel is an overwhelming sense of freedom. Normally, posting something like this is a big no no, since it will kill your chances of ever working in corporate. Luckily for me, I have made the decision that I will never work corporate again. Riot, if you’re reading this, I have also made the decision to not legally pursue the case of wrongful termination. We’re cool. I’m taking today off. Tomorrow is my first day as an entrepreneur. This is a step that I’ve thought about taking for a while now, but could never bring myself to leave Riot for. In a twisted way, I’m grateful the decision’s been made for me. I have a few ideas on direction. I will not be raising money. And I cannot wait to build, truly build.

@girlflours speak on it i fucking hate that so much

min-max culture has ruined the simple enjoyment of things if I tell you about my favorite hobbies and you start telling me about how I could be turning that into a business I should legally be allowed to shoot you

weirdo

@tak_01_ Thanks Claude

i found g2 to be the most unique drafting team in the world due to their picks, pick order and also bans so I took a look at what makes them tick and thought id share a few of my findings, their strengths, their weaknesses and what they can improve in draft: preface: wr is draft wr (where my model perceives a team to have a draft in x team's favour) strength: caps in games where caps is blind picking against his role, g2's chances of winning the draft plummet, even in direct comparison with the average blind/counter draft winrate in lec and tier 1 generally, he produces some of the most value from his counter/late picks globally weakness: bans and side in games where g2 plays with or against a banned rumble (15 games) their draft winrate drops to around 33%. If I was recommending to them id say to leave it open generally. the same logic applying to varus and orianna for opponents (41% and 50% when banned). pantheon is their best value ban with a delta of 50% wr when banned vs not banned. their first pick side is seemingly much stronger than second pick side, if i were an opponent id be targeting the why of this and also forcing them onto second pick on that basis (56% vs 38% wr) improvements: higher prio on skewmonds mundo, blinding support more often (blind wr = 57%), less yunara/ezreal more kaisa/sivir but requires context, taliyah is their only champion with 100% wr and in lec it has a 78% draft wr over 32 games. bot lane tends to perform best when picked together, so r1 r2 or b2 b3 but is not done enough as other options hans sama is underrated and efficient with his picks, especially when countering. he expanded his champion pool significantly compared to previous years and directly contributes to the teams drafting success. giving him more leeway and top less of it would help the team alot basically g2's strengths are meta flexibility, caps, consistency and they show an ability to be able to counter pick decently effectively from any role. i think they could be better with a few small tweaks but they are interesting. no one else really picks or bans the same way which i suppose gives them an element of surprise in some cases for a fun fact they have an 100% draft wr vs both fnc and koi fnc are fucking ass!

i am unable to submit tickets cause it says portal is down please get this player off the rift mr @drewlevin 🙏

in the middle of unc cs, one of my friend's quietly said "14 year old me hits that" and it made me deeply sad
