It's insane that in the last 7 years we regressed by removing important systems and now we're going back because those systems should have never been removed in the first place. Took them 7 years to bring back the ability to honor opponents, maybe they will bring back login screens aswell who knows
@@Gradeient Hoenstly the reason why tis removes is due to the actual lack of meanign of honoring opponents, once the Honor system got updated the new found meaning of it needed the honoring for opponents which is kinda funny but yeah, should never've been removed.

Being honored by an opponent gives you a much better feeling than being honored by someone from your team. It was the best feeling in the game. I don't understand why it took so many years for you to realize that you lost the most valuable system in the game.

@@tabletennisstars1227 It was cringe, lol. The OP literally said that this wasn't cringe when they dedicated almost 30s for a cringy overdone joke, lmao
Clearly agree. Its kind of weird to not have them, with them being another way of monetizing game too. And with League we may have announcers with region theme, champion theme, non-playable lore-character theme and counting.
yess or maybe we can have the option to have special announcers from previous events like the ahri one but that hasn't happened in a while :( i wld love custom announcers ngl
As someone who play exclusively ARAM, I would love to see some updates for it, for example new maps with different features (bring back Butcher's Bridge!) or some kind of a power-up system or maybe even some objectives for mid/lategame.
Randomizing between Howling Abyss or Butcher's Bridge (heck, maybe even a couple new ones) would be great fun. It's a shame all those resources went into BB only to never be seen again
Always love seeing these Dev Updates! Keeps the community in the loop, allows you guys to get some feedback, and gives us things to look forward to! Also loved the Toomi bit xD Mastery icons are looking much better. I guess the one thing I could say is that it would be nice to have a special Mastery icon for people that have Mastery 100. Have it look shiny and sparkly or something, idk, but that would be awesome.
Hi, thanks for the updates! I have a couple of questions: - Was TrueSkill 2 a myth? - Matching premade players from two significantly different ranks, such as Emerald 1 with Platinum 4 or Platinum 1 with Gold 4, is commonly exploited for smurfing and boosting duos with external accounts. - There is no option to report accounts for ELO boosting or smurfing. It’s often easy to identify in some cases because, in ARAM/Flex, they use Flash on D, and then in SoloQ, they stomp all games with Flash on F, or vice versa. However, when reporting, there is no specific option for this, only "cheating."
"2024 will have something for everyone. 2025 will change League forever." Something for everyone they said. That something is New working client. If we dont get it, me and new client gang will get noothing
Love the fact that we'll be able to Honour Enemies after the game, as well as multiple teammates! And the mastery icons are looking great. Polish them up a little and that's perfect! Way better than what we have right now 😅
This is good transparency, the playerbase is the most important part of a games success and interacting with them outside of being this ‘omnipotent force that decides what lives or dies’ means that they feel heard and can understand more of the choices made about the game. Please keep making these, they are interesting and insightful as to what riot is doing with the game whether people agree with it or not.
It took them long enough. It's still the most toxic community in gaming history and all they can think to do is punish punish punish. There's no innovation except ban-hammering.
If you really need momey, you should do champion announcer voices. Like a Morgana announcer for example, or for fundies Draven. It would also give more insight into a champion's personality when you hear how they would announce stuff.
Farmer Nasus. Nasus in overalls, Using a Rake for the Cane, Crop circle for his ring, Chickens leaping around him in Ult. Perfect thematic for the farming Master
For the Autofill question: Will we ever get a queue system where we can intentionally opt-in to potentially longer queue times in order to get our primary guaranteed?
This will most likely never happen. This results in a split queue which increases queue times for everyone, resulting in everyone basically migrating to the opt-in queue which results in a backed up system (do a small simulation where different roles have different popularity). This will make it so at certain times of day you'll be waiting for dozens of minutes or even hours for a queue in a popular role. As long as role selection exists, you have to have auto-fill (regardless of secondary role) if you want queue times to be decent. This doesn't happen a lot (mostly affects super high mmr matches) so it's better to deal with it that to have unbelievably long queue times.
I wish I could find it again but august covers this in a short: they tried it in a smaller region. Nobody chose to fill except for the people who already chose to fill. You still end up with long que times cuz nobody is opting into fill or the weaker roles.
That would entirely negate the point of autofill. Not a single person playing ranked (at LEAST ranked) would have that option enabled and you’d be back at where we were before autofill
Some questions about alternative modes that hopefully get answered in the next update: 1) is there any plans on changing the hextech box system for aram? Right now as it stands if you play primarily aram you will rarely get boxes, as i think i have gotten maybe 2-3 since it changed. 2) Is there any plans to buff the pass progress for future feature modes, becuase playing swarm was by far the worst way to progress the bp. Im not saying to make it better than playing normal league just comporable. 3) If arena does either perm or does another hiatus but comes back, is there any consideration on allowing you to get mastery progress/hextech boxes? 4) finally is there any plans on giving different match history tabs for different modes? It would be nice.
The new Mastery Emotes are a great improvement, the only thing that looks a little bit off to me, is the triangle gem and lack of shine on the center gems from 7-9.
I like the new Mastery more then what we had before but, they feel a bit to thin, and it feels like old M7 has become M10, while downgrading everything else. Edit: M10 also looks a lot smaller then M5. It feels like the mastery gets smaller and smaller.
i think they look fine. obviously they look weird all shown together but in reality we only flash our one current mastery. i think they need more shine or something sparkly
I just checked and they are actually all just scaled and placed by hand for this image. I recon in game they will all be the same size from MR 5 onwards.
well, i also dont like the way vanguard launch, but tbh it makes sense since its getting way harder to start a cheatsoftware while vanguard is already looking for it, instead of starting the cheat first and then let vanguard search the whole pc for it.
An idea for improving the ranking system can be found in League of Legends: Wild Rift. The shield system and point-based ranking, rather than the current LP system, seem to make more sense and could serve as a strong starting point. Additionally, significant changes to matchmaking are necessary, particularly in detecting smurfs and quickly placing them in the ranks where they belong. This would prevent high-elo players from remaining in lower ranks, which disrupts the experience for new players or those who play infrequently and are still in lower ranks. Implementing this approach would make much more sense and discourage smurfs from creating new accounts to play in low elo, thus preserving the integrity of the game for everyone.
Honoring opponents is big for me, I really liked being able to give some love to someone when they make the game a more enjoyable experience, even when they’re not on my team.
So about 6:15 the Mastery Crests, they lack gold on them. They seem more Bronze than anything and that's not great. I like the designs of it, but making them more gold-like would be ideal.
Yes! changing the color of the "base material?" seems like a great way to showcase higher mastery levels. If not, the only visual indicator is the gem in the middle, which seems like not enough, and WILL get lost on people who dont strictly memorize the gems' order.
Love this format. Love the transparency and willingness to address player needs. This is how you keep a game relevant for 15+ years! 10-out-of-10 would love more Player Question Sessions, and sneak peeks! I don't mind kicking-the-can to further details in the future-I'd prefer to know they're coming, period, than to feel ignored!
@@RiotGGMattB I would enjoy the client not lagging and freezing every post game lobby. That might be even better than honoring teammates...maybe rework the client?
Hello, my name is Denis, I have a request. Could you please update the splash art of the champion Annie and her lines, the current model is over 11 years old. And you don't even need to create a new image, you could take that splash art from the game Legends of Runeterra where she is smiling while the school burns behind her. As for the lines in the game, you could make some interactions with characters like Amumu, Nunu, Le Blanc, Jhin, Ryze and Volibear.
Love the mastery emote change, but with the current ones, I absolutely love the way the number counts up to your mastery level, and I would love for that to stay
i like the new mastery emotes you all settled on, it keeps the feel of the original while still looking fresh and new, it keeps the boldness of the originals while still being definitively more compact, i could live with these very comfortably, hopefully the SFX are updated to be as blaring as the originals though, that is still also a point of contention with the current mastery emotes.
If Riot games actually played their game they'd go, "wtf, who released this character?! theyre broken! they poked me out for how much from how far away?! who is this the new Veigar?" "actually its -character released in past couple years to boost sales because OP" "oh... well hopefully plenty of people buy them"
It would be nice to see the level 6 & 8 gemstone colors swapped. I feel like most longtime players are more familiar with that specific color typology for the crests up to 7. My biggest thing with the current revamped mastery emotes is that I had a hard time associating the design with the intended mastery rank.
@@Палиграф The current system: If you get to milestone 1 (which requires minimum 5 games) on a champion, you earn a hextech chest. You can do this 6 times. After that, you need to hit milestone 3 (which requires 15 games) on a champion to get a chest. You have the potential to earn more chests compared to the old system, but you have to put in a lot more time. The old system: You have a counter for unlockable chests that goes up by 1 once a week and caps at 4. Once you achieve an S- grade or higher on a champ that hasn't earned you a chest, you get a chest. This means you can get up to 52 chests a year for a lot less effort. As a person attending school, the old system is better for me because I simply cannot play that much.
@@RobinD0903, тогда думаю по новой системе даже лучше. То есть ты сыграл несколько игр и 100% получил сундук, а получить ранг S на котором ты мало играл парой и с 10 игры может не получиться
@@RobinD0903true like old system i could get more than today system like not all players have no life and just play your game for 24h come in riot you could do better

Thats your personal issue. Ping depends on your internet and location, how far you live from servers... I know nobody who has ever claimed any issues in ping since vanguard, but you got 6 likes which surprises me.
@Rivencrck I had a ping of 30 before vanguard. After it got installed into League, it started to fluctuate, hitting 120 spikes out of nowhere. If I have chorme open, it can reach 200. Like it's around 30, then spikes 90 for some seconds and goes back to 40
I love that they first made the script of what they are going to talk about, and then chose questions selectively that would fit the topics to make it look more natural xd
A lot of contradicting information here. Supposedly changes to matchmaking has happened but my game balance has gotten worse, not better. I'm now sitting firmly in bronze, getting paired with people who were emerald last season in every one of my games. They're using MMR team averages to "balance games out" by giving one team a full select group of bronze to silver range, and the other group gets a single iron champ and 2 previously emerald players. Not really a fair spread here. There has to be a better solution to this.
be happy that they don't consider aram a temp game mode. With how every other idea besides summoners rift is trashed you'd think aram would be scrapped for more development towards making the bushes in the jungle look more green. Riot games is a humble indie company after all.
AMAZING VIDEO , the only thing i want to add is that there should be more options to spend blue essence if u have all the champions then the currency becomes basicly useless (u can buy an aditional rune page or swap regions but besides that it actually is useless)
The mastery is actually really close to what I was looking for. I'm wondering if they would look a bit better if the dark green accents in the wings were the same colour as the gemstone in the center. Or if there was a strong shine from the gem behind the the mastery symbol.
Is that why my client lags or freezes after every game when trying to load post game lobby? Makes the client unusable even when I restart it. Makes champ select really annoying. I have an 11700k and a rtx 3080 btw
decline needs to be IN A ROW not per 24 hours, if I decline two matches due to my dog asking to go out or my mom needing help twice in a day and I'm unable to que for 12 hours ...thats insane... I think you should do after 2 declines 1min, 2min, 5min, 10min, 15min, 30min, 40min, 1hour, 1:30hour, 2 hour, and so on up to 24 hours
i think that the mastery emotes need to be a tiny bit flashier every upgrade from 6-10 so that the diference between them isnt just the shape and color of the little gem

I hope you bring back some of the older game modes like ascension, dominion, hexakill etc.
I loved Swarm! Hope it comes back!
the delivery of 3:00 is perfect, good stuff
I liked this dev blog, it was direct and informative. Especially the smolder plush in the back, that was a nice touch

The editing and twuumi joke were excellent. Dev updates will have more of this!
Just by her move set I know Tuumi is going to be an auto-banned...
I've heard one of her passives is that she can't be banned...

6:13 they go in the right direction, maybe make them a bit more shiny again; The gem on the last one is a bit too big, just a tiny bit
Honoring improvement is actually huge, and also kudos to you guys for listening community regarding the mastery emotes!
Honoring your opponents was one of the coolest features and I was so confused seeing it go away. Glad to see it coming back!
The updated mastery looks fantastic. Very acceptable change
The mastery emotes look amazing there, its fantastic, what an improvement, thanks for the extra effort there
Kappa
how can anyone like the new ones its beyond me
Love this format. Love the transparency and willingness to address player needs. This is how you keep a game relevant for 15+ years! 10-out-of-10 would love more Player Question Sessions, and sneak peeks! I don't mind kicking-the-can to further details in the future-I'd prefer to know they're coming, period, than to feel ignored!
Right? It's about time they started fielding questions from the community. Especially with how totalitarian their Reddit page is.
That Tuumi bit was fantastic, more of that please!
Swarm was gone so fast, and I had no clue it was going away so soon! I was so close to finishing it and I'm sad it's gone
Honouring is back! Best change ever!
Also, enjoyed these smaller dev update. More of this please!
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@RiotGGMattB I would enjoy the client not lagging and freezing every post game lobby. That might be even better than honoring teammates...maybe rework the client?
Hello, my name is Denis, I have a request. Could you please update the splash art of the champion Annie and her lines, the current model is over 11 years old. And you don't even need to create a new image, you could take that splash art from the game Legends of Runeterra where she is smiling while the school burns behind her. As for the lines in the game, you could make some interactions with characters like Amumu, Nunu, Le Blanc, Jhin, Ryze and Volibear.
Where is the champ roadmap?
They offroading now XD
Love the mastery emote change, but with the current ones, I absolutely love the way the number counts up to your mastery level, and I would love for that to stay
i like the new mastery emotes you all settled on, it keeps the feel of the original while still looking fresh and new, it keeps the boldness of the originals while still being definitively more compact, i could live with these very comfortably, hopefully the SFX are updated to be as blaring as the originals though, that is still also a point of contention with the current mastery emotes.
3:02 W Riot finally!
yuumi part💀💀
The behavioral system section at 3:30 when you guys say, "when it happens to us too" is wrong because Rioters do not play the game.
If Riot games actually played their game they'd go, "wtf, who released this character?! theyre broken! they poked me out for how much from how far away?! who is this the new Veigar?"
"actually its -character released in past couple years to boost sales because OP"
"oh... well hopefully plenty of people buy them"
It would be nice to see the level 6 & 8 gemstone colors swapped. I feel like most longtime players are more familiar with that specific color typology for the crests up to 7.
My biggest thing with the current revamped mastery emotes is that I had a hard time associating the design with the intended mastery rank.
Good update guys
not a big fan of the wood/bronze color of the masteries but it’s better than before
Give us the old winter maps back-pls 🥹
Revert the hextech chest system!!
Это что за система? Разве её сейчас нет?
@@Палиграф The current system: If you get to milestone 1 (which requires minimum 5 games) on a champion, you earn a hextech chest. You can do this 6 times. After that, you need to hit milestone 3 (which requires 15 games) on a champion to get a chest. You have the potential to earn more chests compared to the old system, but you have to put in a lot more time.
The old system: You have a counter for unlockable chests that goes up by 1 once a week and caps at 4. Once you achieve an S- grade or higher on a champ that hasn't earned you a chest, you get a chest. This means you can get up to 52 chests a year for a lot less effort.
As a person attending school, the old system is better for me because I simply cannot play that much.
@@RobinD0903, тогда думаю по новой системе даже лучше. То есть ты сыграл несколько игр и 100% получил сундук, а получить ранг S на котором ты мало играл парой и с 10 игры может не получиться
@@RobinD0903true like old system i could get more than today system like not all players have no life and just play your game for 24h come in riot you could do better
@@Палиграф Well I pretty much only play with friends so it meant only one of us needed to get an S. That meant we would have at least one of us getting an S most games
So happy for the Multiple Honor option!! I had several instances where i didnt know who to honor cuz all my team deserved it :(
there should be option while joining the queue, you want to wait longer but avoid autofills or play asap but with possible autofils
Can you upgrade the ping on the game? Feels like after Vanguard, if you have anything open, like Chrome, for example, you'll be lagging.
Everything is fine for me
Thats your personal issue. Ping depends on your internet and location, how far you live from servers...
I know nobody who has ever claimed any issues in ping since vanguard, but you got 6 likes which surprises me.
@Rivencrck I had a ping of 30 before vanguard. After it got installed into League, it started to fluctuate, hitting 120 spikes out of nowhere. If I have chorme open, it can reach 200. Like it's around 30, then spikes 90 for some seconds and goes back to 40
@@RA-LT i think your issue comes from somewhere else
MY HONOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i just really miss that red dot at mastery level 5
I love that they first made the script of what they are going to talk about, and then chose questions selectively that would fit the topics to make it look more natural xd
A lot of contradicting information here. Supposedly changes to matchmaking has happened but my game balance has gotten worse, not better.
I'm now sitting firmly in bronze, getting paired with people who were emerald last season in every one of my games.
They're using MMR team averages to "balance games out" by giving one team a full select group of bronze to silver range, and the other group gets a single iron champ and 2 previously emerald players.
Not really a fair spread here. There has to be a better solution to this.
Да есть такое. Когда в серебре играл у нас была команда 3 из серебра и 2 и золота, а у противника 3 платина 1 серебро и 1 золото
Finally I can honour the enemy teams Yi otp for crushing my bronze 2 promos.
I really like the mastery 10 crystal, I hope that when using the mastery it will glow the same color as the gem, just like how the M7 glows blue.
It makes me happy to see people excited for enemy honoring! I missed doing it!
"Will swarm be permanent riot"
*proceeds to answer the question in every way except what they asked*
"transparency" guess we will just have to come back next month!
be happy that they don't consider aram a temp game mode. With how every other idea besides summoners rift is trashed you'd think aram would be scrapped for more development towards making the bushes in the jungle look more green. Riot games is a humble indie company after all.
*a few months later on a billboard across from the Riot headquarters*
“Keep Toomi,
Delete Yuumi”
Tuumi joke actually had me crying - a true showcase of collective 200+ years of experience in game design!
AMAZING VIDEO , the only thing i want to add is that there should be more options to spend blue essence if u have all the champions then the currency becomes basicly useless (u can buy an aditional rune page or swap regions but besides that it actually is useless)
The mastery is actually really close to what I was looking for. I'm wondering if they would look a bit better if the dark green accents in the wings were the same colour as the gemstone in the center. Or if there was a strong shine from the gem behind the the mastery symbol.
5:33 Straight up lying to our faces. Vanguard has caused bricking in MANY machines and YOU KNOW THIS Riot.
Is that why my client lags or freezes after every game when trying to load post game lobby? Makes the client unusable even when I restart it. Makes champ select really annoying. I have an 11700k and a rtx 3080 btw
RIOT DOES IT AGAIN MY GOATS *GLUCK GLUCK GLUCK*
great dev update keep up the great work
Mastery Icons are looking absolutely fantastic, thanks for bringing back the classic style.
this format was really fun. The moves on mastery and honor system are def the right ones
New masteries are gonna look good, I just hope the sound is gonna be amazing as well!
decline needs to be IN A ROW not per 24 hours, if I decline two matches due to my dog asking to go out or my mom needing help twice in a day and I'm unable to que for 12 hours ...thats insane... I think you should do after 2 declines 1min, 2min, 5min, 10min, 15min, 30min, 40min, 1hour, 1:30hour, 2 hour, and so on up to 24 hours
I love being able to honor enemies thank you for re adding it, I always honor enemy laner in my role if they played well it’s just good sportsmanship
This could be one of the best dev updates i've seen in a long time 😮
really good update! im really excited for many of the directions things are going
i think that the mastery emotes need to be a tiny bit flashier every upgrade from 6-10 so that the diference between them isnt just the shape and color of the little gem
Genuinely the new mastery emotes look so sharp! I actually said "Wow that's exactly it!" when you showed them. Nice work.
