Dev Doodles: Bacon - The Card Game Before the Card Game | League of Legends
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 сен 2024
- Devs were deep in development on a League card game when their world was forever changed by Hearthstone’s launch. They were faced with a decision: Ship a nearly-ready game that wasn’t up to the new standard? Or start from scratch?
This is the story of how Legends of Runeterra almost wasn’t.

Legends of Runeterra is truly fantastic, congrats to everyone that worked on the game
Yeah, the game is very great. Didn't expect they will make a card game with from LoL lore. I like card game, and this is my favourite beside hearthstone :)
A beautiful game : The flavor of MTG, the simplicity of HS, and the board elements inspired from Artifact.
@@adambanyi3876 , and LoR achieved 2-Headed Giant mode which Blizzard still couldn't do it. And a local tournament mode too which Blizzard still don't have.
@@arrowghost How on earth that the board elements inspired from artifact? It's just basic card board game. Even yugi oh have that
@@dieptrieu6564, I only see based on the video, all I only see are guardians that fly around but ours don't, and when cards fight, they smack at each other. It's almost similar
HOW DARE HEARTHSTONE END THE LEGACY OF BACON!!!
No it didn't.I played both of them.Hs is super aggro and few decks over and over again but runterra is a complete good experience.But its not for me as i can play 3/4 games in hs as to 1 game in tunterra
@@Ovijit001 The Bacon they were talking about was a diffrent thing compared to what Runeterra was now
@@ValdisTan oooh sorry i misunderstood
@@ValdisTan yeah. We could've had Warwick in the game. Imagine the horror...
Hearthstone ended and rebooted bacon accidentally
Finally another dev doodles waited this for billions and billions of years!
I broke my feet today because I kicked my computer because someone commented that my videos are bad! I hate unjustified criticism. Please wish me a speedy recovery, dear max
@@AxxLAfriku i shall grant u one also ur vids are not bad dont let other decide who u r!
We waited for 200 years
200 years you mean?
@@AxxLAfriku why are you telling us that??
Did they just teased Warwick being a trap card like puffcaps?!
Hmmmm my main in lol PC is coming can't wait for blood
@@casualboysirius I don't think that actually was a teaser to be honest
Not a trap card, seems like the more damage *you* deal the closer *you* get to drawing Warwick. Like he's tracking the enemy.
That would be pog
Now that you mention it, the idea of warwick card always being in the bottom of your deck till you deal enough damage and burst summon him next time youre attacking sounds crazy
Bloodlust(Trait(?))- Round End: The unit will climb up towards the top of your deck based on how many injured enemy units are on the board.
When Warwick is on one of the top 4 cards in your deck, summon him and deal 5 to ALL enemy units. This damage is increased by 2 if the unit is injured.
I don't what his level up requirement is yet, maybe if he sees a certain amount of injured enemies?
@@cye2310 imagine predict with warwick lmao
LoR may be a little late but I love LoR more than anything. It's the only card game that made me feel actually, unequivocally, and inimitably immersed in the world. Thank you for this amazing card game.
It isn't that late. Only a year, but I completely agree with you
Yeah this game is p2w
Play to Win
@@gosanxi9108 yeah
@@gosanxi9108 AGREED, don't play too much when having a loss streak tho, it was a nightmare.
It has been so long since the last Dev Doodle.
Glad you haven’t forgotten about it
Great thanks to the developers for bringing back my love to card games, it was an honor to play your game since beta release, best F2P friendly game by the best company Riot Games I hope the other games lern more from your balnce team. Edit 0:32 I m soo exited for warwick release hope it's the next champ aftre shurima exapniosn.
My good Boi is coming
that warwick champion concept at the beginning is so good i d love to see it in the game
Yeah
Having played LOR on release, I was really surprised because I didn't know about Bacon at all, so it's a great story to listen to while also enjoying the effort they put into the game I'm playing
Yeah, Riot is actually putting effort into the game, unlike Blizzard. Riot actually cares about what the community thinks about the game, while Blizzard just makes some random excuses and puts a random offer as an "apology" while almost everyone is complaining about how p2w the game is. They should really make the game a little bit less p2w
If Legends of Runeterra is a conversation Lee Sin is just the guy that talks over you
I THANK YOU DRAGON
shut up lee
LoR helped me out when I was feeling miserable last year. It's quite inspiring for me to see that the devs themselves have gone through a setback, yet ended up making this brilliant game many years later.
Legends of Runeterra is a banger.
Playing LoR since january and i Love it i have more then half of the cards (this is my favorite part of it) you dont have to spend any money! You just play and fall in love with the crazy combos animations etc. keep it up
Thanks to this 2 and the team behind them for creating such a great card game
Ouch, man that situation with Hearthstone was horrible...
On a bright side, it brought us the current LoR. So yeah :3 I'd love to commend the developers for not giving up and going through it to the end TBH
Tbf, the game wouldn't even succeed even if HS never came out. So this is more of a blessing to them than anything. Since HS show them the error of their way and help them improved their products
@@dieptrieu6564 yeah, because it will probably (not guaranteed, but PROBABLY) turn into what Hearthstone is today. From a masterpiece of a game to a p2w horror
@@Faraon34420 I think that it will be more akin to MTG than HS. They did say that the game was very difficult back then. I'd expect it to still have the same monetization they have with current LoR. All HS did was inspired them to change the gameplay, not the monetization model
@@dieptrieu6564 Um... what? HS and LoR have two completely different monetization models. In HS you can't get guaranteed cards without spending real money, while in LoR you just need to play the game, to buy cards you need.
I would like to see Leblanc’s design in Lor implemented to Lol
Characters who get somewhat updated visuals in LoR are actually champions who are pretty dated. I guess Riot is already preparing for some at least Splash art reworks for those champs in the future I guess.
@@saceurai6629 Except that Lor's LB is basically the same as LoL's LB with a different artstyle.
They should just cover up that bikini she's wearing
@@dieptrieu6564 the LoR LB is very much so different. For one, she is not wearing a stripper outfit. Secondly, her voice lines in LoR portray a character who is represents LB as much more than she is in LoL. In League she is just an illusionist performer but in LoR she has more of a matriarch mafia vibe and I absolutely love it. So yeah, LeBlanc needs a visual rework to reflect her lore, but then again, there are so many other champions who need it badly too, just look at most of the void-born
@@dieptrieu6564 oh I didn't know that, since I haven't played since the vanilla. Tho I saw Nocturne's splash is pretty different from current League one.
These clips show why riot is a great company. It's honest.
"I hope it isn't good"
"It's so much better then what we have"
I do not see other company's talking about stuff like this with this honesty.
Now I hope we get a warwick who hides in the enemy deck ambushes them
That would be more rengar. Warwick would be some kind of thing representing him chasing you to the ends of the earth.
@@FrostSylph yeah but they mentiomed ww in the video
I like to think that in a parallel universe the card game " Bacon " existed and they enjoyed the game and only had a little time of fame
LoR is such a brilliant game. Great work, gentlemen
LoR best cards game ever
Its just on another lvl
Like the perfect cards game
Honestly this is some nice insight to the dev process, thanks for throwing this out. This kind of candor is rare in the industry.
Obviously I have no idea what "Bacon" would have eventually turned into, however LoR is easily the most fun I've had with any card game, HS included. I'm happy ya'll stuck with it and made the game you did.
These doodles make Riot a little more humane and I love it.
Couldn't even finish watching ruin rising when I clicked on this notification
Me too (türkmüsün xd)
Thank you for the devs the artists to everyone who made runeterra. runeterra, it's ❤️.
Amazing video on game design in general and learning from one's past projects to make something better for the future. Wish you the best for the coming years.
Never played LoR, but I am so happy to hear it has been a success story since you all got it out in the world. Runeterra is already one of my favourite fantasy worlds. The more we get to see it in so many forms, the better imo :D Can't wait for Arcane series and the MMO!
Thank you so much for sharing some behind the scenes! 💙 It's always great to see some insights :D
Love the dev doodles.
I don't even play Legends of Runeterra, but it's the game I watch the most streaming content for.
Absolutely LOVE all the added lore, the interactions between champions and followers, the card acquisition mechanic, everything.
But especially the quotes.
Braum sees Teemo: "What a... fancy poro!"
I must have spent hours on the wiki just listening to all the ones I could find. This game is full of gameplay depth, and so, so enjoyable to watch.
The true LoR experience is getting hit with a concurrent timelines captain ledros into dreadway dealing 100% of your health no matter how much you heal for.
So glad that doesn't work anymore
Thank you for sharing this! A card game I had been working on for about 2 years if close to its final version and earlier this year a card game came out with some of the ideas I wanted to for the environmental feel of it and I thought I could be the first. Also found out they started less then a year ago and dont even have 70 cards base cards. It was kind like how yall talked about hearthstone.
But I love yalls game so much and know others do to. Makes me feel like I can do it and another log has been placed on the fire to help me keep in going with it. Thanks again!
Happy 10 years of LoR! You've made an awesome game.
I know riot gets a lot of backlash now and then along their approach to players of their game, but it's so refreshing to see that we can't just view the entirety of riot as the same and gems like you 2 also exist in that space. A really wholesome story and i'm glad to see you 2 making your passion a reality!
Yay these are back!
and then came the idea of Burst spells which ignore this concept of having a conversation and more like someone who is talking to themselves constantly
Slow spells: "So like, let's talk this out-"
Fast spells: "Nah I wan-"
Burst spells: "ME FIRST!"
Focus spells: *is a fast talker but respects the others enough to not interrupt
I truly love Legends of Runaterra, it seems like it has so much passion put into it and i spend a good amount of time on it, keep up the good work!
I honestly love LoR so much- incredible work all you guys
Legends of Runeterra is such a great game. You can make a deck out of some random cards that don't even work together, but win and still have fun while playing the deck. And I don't even have to talk about how generous it is. Of course, you can pay if you want to buy some card backs or boards, but that doesn't really change anything. So yeah, congratulations, Riot. You made a generous masterpiece
You nailed it guys. The level of interaction with the opponent in LoR is great !
I really like this style of video. It was extremely well made, informative, and interesting! Thank you for this!
Truly the best card game I've played. Pls never stop :)
Thank you guys for making such an amazing game as LoR and keeping it consumer friendly. My wallet thanks you from my previous days playing hearthstone, spending $60 minimum a year to get 60% of all the cards. And yes, deck building and jank are the best parts of card games, I’m glad it lives on here in LoR.
You did a great work, I like LoR so much ❤️
At least you put the effort into LoR especially in animation Goodjob!
Them mentioning the game where you played a champion, and the cards were your abilities makes me really want a "Slay the Spire" style game
If Lab of Legends continues to develop, we just might have something similar
I'm thankful Legends of Runeterra existed. This card game is underrated
Really love the game, i always get amazed by the massive amount of different playstyles you can go for. And it all looks really good
The games great, I don't play often but when I do there's always some new interesting way to improve and iterate on my evasive poro deck.
Oh wow, I remember being at the Hearthstone announcement too. I think I briefly saw Jeff Jew there too. Funny how far things have come.
I love dev doodles
Would love to see champion lore done in this style !
Legends of runeterra is something truly unique. It feels like I'm playing a physical card game digitally and no other digital card games capture that feeling
Been playing card games all my life and lOR blew me away, its one of my top 5 easily i recomend it to everyone, great work 89/10
Thank you for making Legends of Runeterra possible. 🥰
Competition leads to innovation.
Really was interesting to hear their thoughts on Hearthstone and what they took from it to go back to the ding board to make runeterra what it is today.
I really really love the game and the way it is made, the animations looks so much better then I expected them to be. I played it since beta and loved it a lot. Laterly Ive been getting really annoyed by losing over and over again when I think Ive won already. It really got me so annoyed that I quit the game for a while. But new expansions always attract my attention so I look forward to seeing a lot of new awesome cards!

Competition ain't so bad after all
A masterpiece of a card game was born
Find the icon of LoR in your computer, left click and choose properties, (or just highlight it and pres ctrl+enter)
Take a look at the 'target' box.
"--launch-product=bacon"
This was beautiful to see how much LOR has grown TuT
make more dev doodles it's so good to hear what people behind the scenes think
you guys are amazing,,I am forever thankful LOR is the best card game in my life ever play...now the challenge is how you guys handle rotation and never produce some boring deck like freeze mage or fatigue warrior or some cards that is battle cry auto win the game stuff like that
Thank you for making such a wonderful card game! Live long and prosper LoR
When this is recommended 8years later I will be proud to say I was a part of the days where the comments where mostly frech
I love hearing stories of the creation process! Thanks you guys! :D
we need more dev doodles
Thank you for your great work!
While I'm salty that this game didnt release 5-7 years back when i was still dwindling in every genre/sub-genre of gaming (FG, ARPG, CCG being my childhood gaming and everything else coming after that), I'm glad that this game exist and is definitely what I wanted League of Legends Universe to look like. Great Game you guys build there, hope to make it my goto main game 1 day.
I really like these Dev Doodles that they do from time to time
Super glad to hear the thoughts behind this game!!
Rest in peace... I'll miss you
what i miss most in digital card games is to talk with my oponent face to face voice to voice
Gah, these things never fail to make me happy with the Devs. It's nice to see their process and how much they care
About the "Figher game" someone did it of course in physicla cards as Flesh and Blood and currently it is constantly incresing its popolarity. Both hero's have equipment and they use cards as the actions they take. And you can invest your life into it.
you had me at 'the great wall of bacon'
Runettera was the best decision you made guys! Thank you!
Xd got disheartened by Heartsone
Then learned fron their mistakes, then created a better version
That's why i like competition, kind of glad hearstone released earlier so that they can put more effort in this masterpiece!
Heimerdinger doing some crazy things to Twisted Fate's cards there.
I really can't wait for an established competitive scene, it's going to be so hype
Pantheon cinematic, we need that
I never played any card games before but after playing League for 5 years and I am still playing it Runeterra is besides yu gi oh my favourite card game only because yu gi oh is my childhood ^-^
Oh, this video is animated by ehlboy...
Thats why i noticed some similarity style with domics
LoR is everything I've looked for in a digital card game. It might be a disservice to the game to boil it down to that, but it is essentially a more open-ended Hearthstone with more complexity. A little more difficult to get into if you have absolutely zero card game experience, but I'm glad it didn't die on release like Artif OMEGALUL ct.
There's actually an article in Kotaku from 2013 that indicates that some sort of card game was scrapped by Riot. Apparently the first iteration of LOR was called "League of Legends: Supremacy"
The articles' title is "Hacker Claims League of Legends Maker Buried a Finished Card Game [UPDATE]"
i thought the TF statue was a bong for a sec lol
Yeah it was complicated but I had fun, plus I love the animations, splash art, lvl up animations and lore. Thank you for your efforts Riot
To any League players that tried out LoR in the beta and didn't stick with it, I suggest giving it another try now that we're 2.5 sets (big expansions) further as they added a lot of variety in gameplay and mechanics/keywords as compared to open beta as well as flashier level up animations. From 318 cards in open beta to 770+ right now (800+ after the upcoming expansion on May 5th, reveal season started yesterday).
thank you for all your hard work!
Just love LOR, the World of Runeterra i can explore is massive, in every cards, regions, stories behind those cards... Just like drugs to me
Thank you guys for sharing that!!! ^^
4:59 Giving new life to the meme lol
Genuinely, do that for warwick, a deck that forces control of deck and what you draw
The back and forth style of LoR is something really unique. It's not matched by MtG, *certainly* not by Hearthstone, the incredible rhythm really shakes up how you make every single play.
I would love to see iced version. I am a fan of complex rules and just seeing it would be nice.
Im so glad LoR is in such a good hands. What I like the most is a Lab of Legends, there are tons of players who don´t like to build their own decks, they rather improve it during the run and Lab of Legends is perfect for that. I hope it gets even more cool and crazy stuff, maybe with story scenarios and some insane mechanics
Bruh, if LOR got simplified and transfered into a kind of trading card game like Yugioh, I would buy them all, hope riot game gonna release it
Aww, man. Am I really going to start playing LoR because if this video? The cards do have some cool art...
Hearthstone truly changed the landscape
good evening early people
Sup
Hi ^^
Hey, thanks
Oooooh man, how I wanted to take a look at this Bacon! it seemed to be quite different from the current cardgames!
