League of Legends - Patch 8.12 Bug Megathread


Patch 8.12 Bug Megathread

Posted: 13 Jun 2018 12:59 AM PDT

Greetings Summoners!

With every new patch Riot introduces to balance out champions and items there are some unforeseen issues that creep up and cause disruption during gameplay. We have noticed that these issues which eventually get fixed clutter up the subreddit immediately following the patch.

We want to avoid this by having a single Megathread which will be posted after every patch so that you guys can report the various issues in one place. This allows Riot to easily keep track of the bugs by providing a central hub and also allows other users to confirm that they might have encountered.

Note only bugs caused by the 8.12 Patch should be reported below.


Prerequisites to be noted before reporting a bug

  1. A bug will ideally be accompanied with a screenshot or a video. This provides credibility to your report.

  2. Steps to recreate the bugs should be submitted if possible. This helps Rioters recreate the bug and helps them find the cause behind it.

  3. The bug must have been caused by the latest patch.


Format when reporting a bug: When reporting a bug, please provide as much information as you can about your computer.

Server: The server you encountered the bug (NA, EUW, EUNE, TR, RU, BR, LAS, LAN etc)

Type of Bug: Client Bug, In Game Bug etc

Description: Describe what was the bug that occurred.

Video / Screenshot: Insert screenshot (F12 in game) or Video of the bug occurring.

Steps to reproduce: Provide the steps necessary if someone else had to reproduce the bug.

Expected result: What should have been the result when you follow the steps mentioned above.

Observed result: What was the result you obtained when you followed the steps mentioned above?

Reproduction rate: If you try to recreate the bug how successful are you in causing it to occur? (1/10 : Occurs once every 10 tries, 5/10 : Occurs 5 times out of 10, 10/10 : Happens every single time)

System specs: Processor, Video card, Ram, HDD/SSD, everything you can provide, even drivers.


Example Bug:

Server: EUW

Type of Bug: In-Game Bug etc

Description: Zed's R(Death Mark) does not apply secondary damage

Insert Video / Screenshot of the incident

Reproduction rate: 2/10 (happened 2 out of 10 times)

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Launch a game after selecting Zed as your champion.
  2. Attempt to use Death Mark.
  3. Observe the result.

Expected result: The damage should apply after a short delay, amplified by damage dealt during the effect.

Observed result: The damage will not apply properly.

System Specs: Intel i5 Processor, Windows 7, Nvidia Graphics card (insert model number) etc.

2018 NA LCS Summer Split: Let's Go

Posted: 13 Jun 2018 12:00 PM PDT

Hashinshin pulls the strings...

Posted: 13 Jun 2018 09:31 AM PDT

Hash is the real man behind the LoL.

He said: - jungle is op (constantly dying lvl2) - jungle deleted; - adc are op - adc deleted; - shields are op - shields deleted; - no keystone for bruisers - conqueror.

Because of his cry, we have true damage bruisers every lane with adc and jungle no longer exist.

This man is the true power - hope he wouldn't contest the entire game...

Man, it must suck to be a pro player now

Posted: 13 Jun 2018 02:16 AM PDT

  • Games decided in 15 min followed by insurmountable gold leads and no comeback potential
  • One mistake leads to an instant snowball
  • ADC players had to learn bruisers instead of the marksmen that they spent their whole career perfecting
  • Macro? What's macro? What's late game? Nearly irrelevant when every game is a stomp
  • Games don't seem professional anymore. Viewers expect sophisticated stuff or strategy, but watching fiestas are fun for the first few games and then get boring.
  • The game seems to have completely lost its identity.

Riot Games response to my letter about my League addiction.

Just want to give a shoutout to Riot Player Support team, even though they are meant to resolve game related problems, they of course know how to give a nice real life advice too. :)

Hi there again,

Welcome to my lane!

I'm a Player support agent and I love assisting everyone from all over the world. I don't have a training in this field regarding addiction so I coudn't really help by sharing an expert advise or anything like that.

What I can do, is share from my personal experience and even If I can't tell you about the detailed experience I had in the past regarding this I can tell you I know how it feels and I would like to share with you my fix for it:

I consider an addiction something we do it on repeat and would like to stop doing it so I called it " toxic hobby". I asked myself how could I get rid of it and then it hit me: " I need a productive hobby", one that makes me happy so I started reading. I know bro, reading dosen't sound that fun but that's what helped me out, for you it may be dancing, running, drawing, painting or doing out-door activities such as hiking or camping.

Having activities that concentrate/focus our energy in a positive way helped me and I hope this message finds you well.

Sorry if I coudn't help more dude -^

Kind Regards,

CarpathianSphinx

Meddler notes they'll be nerfing gold funneling and buffing some ADCs in 8.13

Posted: 13 Jun 2018 08:53 AM PDT

/u/RiotMeddler has just tweeted:

Delaying today's post to tomorrow. Want to cover about how in 8.13 we'll be nerfing gold funneling (mid/jungle) and buffing some ADCs. Need to sort out a few more details today first though before talking through them.

We should hear a more in depth approach in tomorrow's Quick Gameplay Thoughts post

Conqueror in it's current state is bad for the game and contradicts Riot's design philosophy for Keystones

Posted: 13 Jun 2018 12:51 PM PDT

Conqueror was introduced to be a spiritual successor to Fervor and to appease the complaints to Bruiser players that there wasn't a suitable successor to the rune. In their haste to do this, the rune has some glaring design issues and are a significant reason the meta has shaped up into what it is now.

1. It's just general power with no realistic downtime

Keystone runes are supposed to be unique abilities that provide specialized windows of power for your champion to play around. Every single one of these runes has either a hard CD on it's usage (Predator,Electrocute,Aery,Aftershock, Phase Rush etc.) or grants it's power in sustained bursts as a reward for staying in combat with champions (Grasp, Aery, Glacial Augment etc.). Conqueror follows neither of these paradigms. Once's it up, and it's able to be prepped via minions, it's always up as long as you're in combat hitting something indefinitely. This is not hard to achieve at all and is a clear outlier in terms of design, especially among the damage centric runes. It leads to a situation where the rune is getting waaaaaaay more mileage and overall power exerted on the map than its counterparts and it centralizes the game around it.

2. It punishes a class of champions (Tanks) far too hard and chokes them out of the meta

Yes I know this is going to trigger the vocal majority on Reddit with a hateboner for tanks but it's an objective fact and it needs to be said. A couple like Ornn (mostly due to his stupid impactful ult) still see some play at the competitive level, but in SoloQ they're borderline extinct.

https://lolalytics.com/ranked/worldwide/platinum/plus/champions/

Only two tanks currently post a positive WR in top lane, Malphite and Sion (with relatively insignificant playrates), the former being a historical counterpart to the types of champions that are extremely meta right now. It's even worse in the jungle, where the scuttle changes have made it so only those with significant dueling potential and fast early clear times can be viable. If Riot genuinely cares about having diversity in team compositions, this is something that simply can't remain the way it is now.

To lay it out in statistical terms here's a link from a fellow redditor

https://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/8q1ubc/how_much_armor_conqueror_pierces_contains_links/

(Credit to u/hamidium)

TL:DR: Conqueror is comically effective at piercing through resistances, and in a world where Riot has slanted true Tank items toward being more resistance heavy than health heavy after the Tank rework last year, this is especially punishing.

Now common sense would dictate "Just stack health then dummy", but outside of Warmogs, that just straight up isn't a realistic proposition for Tank champions, their itemset doesn't allow it. But you know who's itemset does? Bruisers, thanks to items like Titanic Hydra and Steraks, and it's another reason why they're so prevalent. The classic point of complaint Bruiser mains have had regarding tanks has now done a complete 180. Why would you ever willingly pick a tank when you're essentially forfeiting all lane pressure, AND Bruisers can get comparably tanky as you and still be able to kill priority targets and carry the game as a whole.

It's one thing for stuff like LW/BC etc, to exist to counter armor stacking because you have to make an actual in game decision to purchase said items. I don't even mind that IE has the true damage % conversion for that exact reason,True damage along with %max health damage are great levers to make sure the damage done delta between hitting a tank or a squishy isn't too ridiculously large. It's another to be able to just select a rune before the game even starts and invalidate a significant portion of a champion's power for the entire game. Now the obvious complaint would be "Without Conqueror we'd just go back to a tank meta", which is completely bogus. We've had NUMEROUS bruiser/carry top metas before the rune's existence (literally right before Ardent Censer hit the scene in full force right before Worlds were in a standard "Renekton Bar" meta) , almost all of the main problematic tanks like Maokai and Ornn have eaten a tidal wave of nerfs over the course of the year. Champions have resources within their kit's design (Irelia/Jax's mixed damage output, Renekton/Darius's armor shred on E, Camille's true damage on Q) that can be tuned and adjusted to provide the power needed to punch through tanks. Just handing out a general catch-all rune to do this for you is pure laziness. Even if you were to take the extremely lazy way out and 1:1 replaced Conqueror with Fervor (Which is also problematic in it's own way), it'd be an improvement,. because at least I can actually itemize against that bullshit instead of having one long extended feelsbadman every time I have to buy armor from the shop

Potential Solutions

-Give it a hard, definite length of time it can last. Potentially 6 seconds to mirror PTA and Lethal Tempo in the same tree. Maybe a bit longer than that but as long as it's a set duration

-Reduce the %True Damage conversion to 15 or even 10%. Increase the AD amount by a little to compensate, maybe 10-50 like it was in testing

-Give it a hard CD after it's duration wears out, long enough so there's an actual meaningful window to do something. Have it scale down as the game goes on to make it more forgiving.

[THEORY] The Female Darkin's Identity

Posted: 13 Jun 2018 03:57 AM PDT

With Varus's lore update, not only was he turned into a Darkin character, but we found out that there is also a Female Darkin whom Varus is looking for. A lot of people have been trying to figure out who this character will be, but with Aatrox's rework, I think the answer has been staring us in the face the whole time.

What we know about this her, is that she is near immortal, female, should be a weapon of some form, and according to Aatrox's new voiceline to Varus, should have to A's in her name. Darkin are also said to be able to take on armies by themselves.

In some cultures, a shield is considered a weapon, even Braum claims, "My shield is my sword". So if we assume that the Darkin can also take the place of shields, then the answer becomes obvious, because we already know of a character that is immortal, is female, has two A's in her name, has taken on whole armies with her and the one that wields her, and is essentially a living shield.

The answer of who this character is, is none other than Kled's mount Skaarl. The Darkin are also incredibly old, which backs up this fact considering that Kled and Skaarl are rumoured to be as old as Noxus. I feel like with this information, there can be no doubt in anyone's mind that Skaarl is the female Darkin Varus is looking for, and that we've outsmarted Riot yet again.

It is all Uzi's fault

Posted: 13 Jun 2018 07:52 AM PDT

Uzi is the best ADC in the world right now, and maybe the best player in the world for some people.

It is supposed to be the year of Uzi, the year where he wins it all.

And Riot is like : "Mate, if you're really the best player of the world, let's take down ADC marksmen. And prove yourself."

Can't wait to see Uzi in action !

One of Zoe's movement quotes upon leaving base has her saying:

"Hey guys, so cosmic change time, possible armaggedon, twilight of the gods, blah blah blah. You've been heralded."

This META brings back memories of season 1 when nobody knew how to assign roles or properly play the game.

Posted: 13 Jun 2018 02:45 AM PDT

Maybe for some of us, it feels good to watch fun to play and brings back memories from almost 10 years ago when we were younger.

To me, on the other hand, feels a step back and reminds me of all those hours that I invested in the game. I saw the game expand and evolve. this meta brings me back to level 1, reminds me of the grind for the level 30 but deep down I feel sad and depressed I have to go through it all over again, feels like all the progress just disappeared before my eyes.

God-King Garen is cool to me because, from a Magic: The Gathering perspective, he’s a great example of a mono-white antagonist.

Posted: 13 Jun 2018 10:55 AM PDT

White, taken to its illogical extreme, is the most despotic color. God-King Garen exemplifies what a mono-white villain would be like: enforcing compliance and conformity with threat of permanent removal (execution).

Anyone else thinking this is the case? I mean, pros and coaches, you want things constantly changing, so that teams can show who can adapt and pick broken shit more quickly than the other guys.

Who wants consistency? I heard the NFL changed their rules so that QBs can have 2 footballs on the field at the same time.

Also midway through the season they are going to change the amount of people you can have on the field for defense, and the football may utilize wings if the game gets boring and fly around - this is to incentivize scoring.
