Free Talk Friday - December 8th

Posted: 07 Dec 2017 10:04 PM PST

Hey there, /r/leagueoflegends! It's that time of the week once again; Free Talk Friday's back, baby! Hope you've all had a wonderful week <3

All-Stars is in full swing! We've got matches galore, scores to settle and 1v1s to duke out (heck, there's a few going on as I type this)! Who's gonna take home the All Star bragging rights this year?!

We've got our final major patch of the year - barring one last micropatch that's coming in a week or two, that's it for Season 7! What did you think of this year's version of League of Legends overall? Let's hear it!

That's gonna wrap it for this week, folks! Ball's in your court now - go ahead and chit chat about whatever you feel like (though League talk is obviously welcome)! Y'all know the deal by now: talk shop, play nice, and as always, have a good weekend!!

Google is now treating LoL teams/leagues as of they were sports

Posted: 08 Dec 2017 04:43 AM PST

I don't know if this is something new, but the results/leagues of lol are now displayed as if they were sport leagues.

screenshot of tournament result/schedule. another one

screenshot of leagues you can follow

You can even add teams to your preferences to receive notifications about matches and results

Edit: THE RESULTS PER MATCH ARE VERY DETAILED

Edit2: FFS, who cares whether it's a sport or not? I said "as if" (sort of) because that's the way Google handles sports data. I actually prefer pro-gaming than sport and i'm ok with that; but the deal here is how cool it is to have this from google (updates, results, without any other app)

[PROOF INSIDE] Huge RED side advantage costs Sneaky the game in 1v1 vs BRTT

Posted: 08 Dec 2017 07:31 AM PST

So as you are all aware, Sneaky lost to BRTT yesterday because BRTT got to kill 1 cs faster.

Some of you might have not noticed that this 1v1 is played in howling abyss and howling abyss minion spawning has not been the same as summoner's rift minion spawning since major ARAM changes in patches 7.8 and 7.10.

An important change in 7.10 caused the howling abyss map to be asymmetric.

The first wave has no siege minions. From there, Siege minion spawns now alternate between teams, starting with blue side in wave 2 and red side in wave 3

Basically blue side siege minion spawn on wave 2,4,6,8,10,... (even wave) and red side siege minion spawns on wave 3,5,7,9,11,... (odd wave)

This change also applies to the 1v1 version of the map. Check this and this for proof.

The change makes red side get an extra CS (and experience advantage and can use an extra 40g earlier but let's ignore these 2 issues for now). Now on the wave before the winning wave, we see a siege minion spawning on the blue side. BRTT has already killed this siege minion during the winning wave giving him an extra CS while sneaky doesn't get to kill the siege minion.

Now if the map was symmetric, there are 2 scenarios; both siege minions spawn on an even wave or both siege minions spawn on an odd wave. Now I am aware that the whole game would have been completely different with a symmetric map. First thing is that Sneaky would have an extra CS, exp and 40g in first back, the minion wave would not be pushing towards red side, and the final wave would probably clash a lot closer towards the middle of the map (or one player killing the other straight up). But let's say the universe decided to play the whole thing the exact same way except the final wave.


In the later scenario (odd wave spawn) would 100% guarantee Sneaky winning because BRTT would be 1 cs down.

On an even wave spawn, Sneaky would also have won. The 3 caster minions from the previous wave would not have died before the siege minion. He also would have gotten the cs faster as 2 dancing grenades bounces and an auto were used on the siege minion to kill it. This is excluding the fact that he got denied the siege minion from the wave before his final recall.


Anyway I would also like to point out that minions are spawning every 25 seconds instead of 30 sec in SR since patch 7.8. This alongside the asymmetric and more siege minion spawning (every 2 waves instead of 3) should have a huge impact on how 1v1 in howling abyss is different from laning phase in summoner's rift (with no junglers). We also didn't talk about how the outer howling abyss turrets kills melee minions in 2 turret shots instead of keeping them with enough hp for 1 auto... You can see it at 5:45 in sneaky vs brtt game. This alone throws off any skill in farming under turret and pushing a player under turret might be a very good strat in denying cs.

I thought Riot wanted to take allstars more seriously with all the canceled rotating game modes. Maybe start by fixing the 1v1 mode #BringBackMagmaChamber.

TLDR, asymmetry in this year's 1v1 tournament is giving a red side advantage and probably cost a game. This asymmetry didn't exist in 2016 allstar or previous 1v1 tournaments. Also 1v1 on Howling Abyss getting more and more different from Summoner's Rift.

Should riot "buff" orange essence?

Posted: 08 Dec 2017 01:59 AM PST

After skin shards give less orange essence i think it takes way too long to upgrade skin to permanent. e.g you get 650-OE from ultimate skin and that is not even enough for 975 rp skin. I get that system has some kind of bad luck protection but still isn't it bit too excessive when you need multiple skin shards to upgrade a single skin permanently.

The colour scheme at this all stars is disgusting

Posted: 08 Dec 2017 06:49 AM PST

Seeing the blue and green on the overlays and the player's jerseys is such a gross combination, for some reason makes me feel like I'm watching a toy ad.

Apparently Minion Dematerializer is coded as 'a shit ton of true damage' to minions?

Posted: 08 Dec 2017 08:07 AM PST

I played Azir in AI just now and out of curiosity I checked the stats page...

I used 5 of the dematerializers in game, I didn't take any reds either.
