The goal of a CGU is to update gameplay for two types of champions: Those that have high quality art and narrative, but whose gameplay just doesn’t quite deliver on their fantasies, or champions with more complicated gameplay issues that can’t be solved by changing one or two abilities (like the small adjustments to Tahm Kench were able to accomplish). We then rebuild the champion’s kit from scratch with the same model, theme, and narrative.

So is this now a third type of rework that we will only get one per year? Or will we hopefully get multiple of these ones a year since a lot of champs need it more than a full VGU

Not sure yet. We are testing out this new project with Asol. If it resonated with a lot of players their are many other champions that could make sense for CGUs, even if we didn't change as much as we are changing with Asol.

This sounds cool. An AP jungler has been needed. Plus wtf is Oyster Bill?

A humanoid Oyster, of course, that serves oysters in Bilgewater.... don't think to much about it :)

Reav3 I am trying to quit toplane, why there's a beautiful Shuriman tank now?

Just when you think you are out, we pull your right back in! :)

So aurelion is comig after Tank or even later? Also, next roadmap is coming after Adc or Udyr?

Yes, Asol is currently planned for sometime after the Tank, not sure how long though, will depend on smooth production goes

Oh no worries! I'm a big fan of when devs choose to take their time to get something right

Thanks! We especially want to make sure the ultimate "feels" like a ultimate skin, because right now it feels closer to a legendary.

May I ask who is working on this joyous lover of oysters? the tease gives real ff14 susano vibes.

Squad5, Sojyoo and CarnivalKnights

Finally the English version is up!

Poor reav3 getting notified everytime someone has some league question

u/Reav3 how are you? how's your day been?

Good so far

I guess we will have to do something about this soon

I'd go the other way around, hints of blue with more red in it. Primarily blue from what I picturing isn't what they want. Something closer to the original would be best.

I'd also like to know (for the lol wiki sake even) if this new rappel targetted interaction is intentional or bugged, targetted rappel not working anymore has a lot of the playerbase dropping elise for the time being.

We are putting out a hotfix for this now

Tormentula

It is a big yes

big or bug lol

Sorry its a bug, we are looking into a fix right now

An update visually or mechanically? Cause I'm interested in the latter.

visually

I understand this but why is the solution green? White (specifically clear white) is bad because you see colors through it (so make it solid), however green/blue (which is far more common) just blends in with more on the map, it looks like river or sometimes grass and terrain trees, there is far less structures on the map for white to blend in. Also what about the complaints about blood moon E swapping from red to blue? Are you guys working on fixing the colors on that too?

This was traditionally an issue with Elise because some of her skins you would intentionally go because they blend in the river (DB, now bewitching and rose), or because the cocoon missile matched the neurotoxin one so you can cause panic flashes (blood moon was banned in LCS and later updated for that in the past, even tho DB does it too.)

Unrelated, but can you confirm the strange rappel changes being intentional? Rn target casting is flat out gone and we can’t tell if it was intentional, a bug, or a failed bandaid solution to the game losing rappel bug. There was no notes of it being changes but target rappel flat out now doesn’t work and the passive bonus buff from it still works via the self cast bug even tho the self cast drop part is now gone.

We are looking to change it to more of a blueish color with hints of red in it

White is generally not a good color for champs or VFX because it causes clarity issues. We are working on a update to that ability right now though

Also I was curious, was there a reason why you guys decided to do 2 Zaun champs back to back, was it related to Arcane?

I think I have answered this before, but the reason they are both Zaun is they were both originally supposed to ship during the Riot X Arcane event, so we had goals for them to both be either Piltover or Zaun to match the theme of that event. Both DNA teams ended up gravitating towards Zaun so that's why we ended up their.

Could you possibly grab Renata Glasc's now that shes been out for a few days

What about the Concept Artist? You always forget to mention the concept artist :c

The question before was jut asking about the designers. The artist on the jungler is Bravo Ray and the artist on the bot laner is Sojyoo (Who was also the artist on Zeri)

Horror_Manner_1249

Can you share the designers working on the Void Jungler, and the Non-Traditional bot laner?

EndlessPillows is the designer on the Jungler and Squad5 is the designer on the bot laner
