what’s the reason for milio adjustments? he doesn’t seem to be OP or bad atm

on live, milio has two play patterns that are not desirable: E yourself and auto attack the enemy level 1 where you outtrade basically everyone else; never cast Q except to peel

Pulling some power from early level E>AA to feed power into Q so you can cast it in in poke/harass rather than purely held as a disengage

Judging by the QnA it looks like the gameplay designer used to also be responsible for the characters appearance - nowadays, the gameplay designer is entirely separate EDIT: entirely separate individual from the art designer. For example, aurora was first conceived as concept art, and different kits were trialed for her. One such kit was sylas, which they decided to ship with a different visual due to the clash between bunny girl and diver-that-killed-you-with-your-own-ult.

I cannot, however, explain what OP meant by "product".

nah gameplay and visual are intricately married in any reliably functional product

Design is constantly about making compromises. The only issue with Darius was his E, Apprehend which scared our Live Balance team to no end. It used to be a bit longer of a pull with an even bigger knock up.

This is the funniest part to me. Darius E is a good ability but hardly something that makes him a menace, especially compared to current champs

its a far more concerning gameplay effect when there werent other hoops to jump through in the kit (Passive Noxian Might and Q having a long enough delay to be unreliable were added later)

Agreed. Its honestly embarrassing that anyone at Riot thought these changes made any sense.

 Like what the fuck?

Did /u/GreaterBelugaWhale lose lane to a Milio and choose violence?

The comment describes an active and a reactive play pattern and says both are bad, so how do they intend someone to play him?

Ah i see whats going on. allow me to qualify the statements made.

these two play patterns are undesirable when they account for the degree of importance that is observed on live atm. you will obviously still shield yourself or your ally in trades, and often hold your Q. These changes simply pull some of the power out of the self E > AA pattern in favor of asking you to take some risks with looking for opportunistic Q harass when you think you can get away with it, while also making it significantly better to do so.

Riot already confirmed ears ago that the design team doesn't take account balance nor talks to the balance team, which is fucking insane. I wish I had the source

ya mate that does sound a bit insane considering balance is a design team LOL

Probably a memory leak. Will probably get someone to contact you tomorrow during the workday to get client logs if you are willing.

around 3.50

I'm more surprised that it works on buildings (inhibs, nexus) at all, since they can't receive (de-)buffs directly. I'm also surprised the Nexus health regen didn't outpace the damage over time.

That is all assuming the debuff was indeed applied and killed the nexus in this clip, I have not checked whether or not it applies to buildings myself yet.

it does. I used nested tables to track damage for inhibs and nexus since buffs don't work there

edit: you wouldn't happen to know where my riot flair went would u LOL

edit2: ah figured it out, theres a new internal process

as the Kevin that made grubbies, Kevin is a proper name for grubs

i've been waiting half a year for nonsense like this to show up on reddit

Sharing (Gold) is Caring: Rift Herald grants any gold it gains from turrets/turret plates to the player that summoned them (if they weren't around) ⇒ Rift Herald grants any gold it gains from turrets/turret plates to all champions who assisted in killing the Herald

I'm looking forward to randomly getting gold for my own tower being taken down because I happened to hit the Herald as the enemy took him.

uh, ya it checks for team. could have been a bit clearer there kekw

You see, the community, they have been most vocal on the subject of the cat horde. "Where's the cats? "When are we going to get the cats?" "Why aren't we getting the cats now?" And so on. So please.... the cats.
