@RiotPhroxzon We (average players) would be interest in Ranked if grinding worthed it. I once played 50 games with 72% wr (with amazing kda mind you), i only barely made it to Emerald 4. All these hard work just to be RESETTED in a few months (cause you decide multiple seasons was a good idea)

Was fun to chat with Armand again! On League's Many Audiences Wanted to provide more context about rate of change 1. The vocal minority on Reddit, Twitter, Bilibili, Inven, etc. are a very specific (but important!) part of the player base. 2. The energy/investment required to even post at all is too high for most people. This leaves a non-vocal majority that is often not posting on these platforms. 3. We try to get the opinions of these players with surveys and other methods. What we've found is that players who play a lot (streamers, Pros, social media users, etc.) will almost always want more change. They typically often play majority of Ranked SR and play hundreds if not thousands of hours a Season. The majority of our player base are average players that have a higher chance of finding it difficult to keep up with too many large updates (this is not all, but a significant portion). They may have lifestyle commitments like School, Work or Kids. These players might play more normal SR, play more Modes like ARAM and might not be Ranked grinders. As a result, even if the entire vocal minority on social media is saying the same thing (we want more change!), our average players could be saying something completely different (and in this case they are) If we change the game too much, even if the changes are good, they can lead to a significant amount of players feeling like "League changes too much to keep up" and alienating some of that longtime audience. At the same time, if we don't make changes that make the game exciting, fresh and interesting, then the game can become stale. So, we think Season Start is a good time to be making changes that feel exciting, fresh and interesting, but our inclination to do that in the middle of the year has gone down a decent amount as a result of these studies, though maybe that will change in the future On making good changes We also need to make a distinction between: 1. Large changes that are good 2. Large changes that aren't so good It's a fair critique to say if the size of changes are large, but the changes aren't good, then it's not the size of changes that's the problem, it's the quality of the changes. Given League's longevity, the "low hanging fruit" of good changes gets smaller and smaller every year. The ability to both "go big" and "have that be good" becomes harder and harder even with a lot of investment. eg. Look at movies, AAA games, TV shows, etc. At the same time, our job is to find those spaces that are awesome and are surprising even when they're hard to find. But it does mean that if we can't find something, we think it's better to make smaller changes that we think are good than go larger with changes that might be frustrating to players.

@aAa_MacCoy ''So realistic'' it rains inside of a tunnel

🎥Récemment, un fan chinois a réalisé un rendu 3D en ray tracing du pentakill de 🇫🇷𝐙𝐲𝐰𝐎𝐨 lors des #IEMDallas2025. Ce n’est pas forcément mon style, mais vu le succès du post, je le partage pour celles et ceux qui aiment ce genre de contenu (et ils ont l'air nombreux).

@GentleLight8758 @DramicGaming ''its not princesses on chinese concept''

Being an astronaut may be a dream job, but getting back to Earth is the hardest part

@Xeno_TG @maximilian_ Good, do the best for the community

‼️A $10,000 BOUNTY WAS JUST SET BY @maximilian_ FOR THE IMPLIMENTATION OF ROLLBACK NETCODE FOR ULTIMATE MARVEL VS CAPCOM 3!!!

@YouTube Billion dolar company choose to annoy its customers for the sake of MORE MONEY.

sometimes you just have to rewatch that video from 10 years ago

@bebo919 @realMaalouf islam: When you go to heaven all your wishes will be accepted Islam: 72 wives primised Me: I want 73 Islam: Error

@realMaalouf He also believes he is going to have 72 virgins that will stay virgins forever, and he is going to have the sex power of 100 men and enjoy 70,000 orgasms, in addition to the boys and wine—all in heaven.

Mehdi Hasan says he believes Muhammad split the moon in two and that he flew to heaven on a winged horse. How can anyone take anything that he says seriously?

@Hunterr_lol @RiotPhroxzon And when they decided to overbuff her everyone, literally everyone, said DONT. Now she is weak and still annoying.

@SoSensitiveOne @RiotPhroxzon and then they overbuff her base dmg so shes not even weak and is the most unfun experience to play against

Patch 26.8 Update 1. We have pulled Viego from the patch after reviewing some of the data issues from yesterday that led us to want to buff him in the first place. There's a bit of weirdness that happens with his data, due to some of the form swapping that goes on and how that makes its way into the data pipelines for both internal and external data that were investigating and resolving 2. The Ambessa changes that were originally planned for this patch have been punted to 26.9. We still intend to change her on that patch

@dpmlol Yeah, we like it dark in here
