Quick Gameplay Thoughts: May 24
"Hi folks,
Usual Disclaimers
These posts will often contain talk about future work we're doing, or planning to do, that isn't yet guaranteed to ship. The nature of the work could change or, depending on what we discover, projects mentioned may get delayed or even stopped. If you'd like to see a Tweet whenever a new one of these posts goes up: https://twitter.com/RiotMeddler
State of work on a few champs
Not much new that's ready to talk about this week. Going to do some quick run throughs on current plans for a few small champ updates as a result.
Teemo
Teemo changes have been on the PBE for a while now and we've also recently got some on site user lab testing done on them. Seeing some positive sentiment and some concerns. Plan is to try another iteration as a result, with a particular focus on improving the E, then reassess overall state of the project.
Aatrox
Aatrox changes have been live for a bit now. So far we're still cautiously optimistic about them, with the revive no longer being reliably available showing particular promise. Looks a little strong in high MMR play, not planning on nerfs in 9.11 at least though. Very interested to see if changes have addressed some of what made him so pick/ban in pro, even when weak elsewhere, and should see pro play on them shortly.
Yuumi
We're starting to see Yuumi succeed quite well for people who've played her a lot. Player sentiment's also shifted from a clear consensus she's weak (pre hotfix) to a wide range of opinions from too weak to balanced to too strong. Holding off on any changes beyond some low power impacting useability stuff and bug fixes in 9.11 as a result. Trying to be cautious about not buffing needlessly if we can help it, given that would force future nerfs.
Diana
As with Teemo we've had some Diana changes on the PBE for a bit. Feedback on those has generally been on the more negative side. We do think they accomplish some of our goals with the project, but aren't confident about the overall package landing in a good spot. Plan is to cut a lot of the changes as a result. Likely means we ship some small adjustments now and then consider Diana for further work sometime a bit later in the year."
When asked about Ryze, Meddler noted:
"We've got some changes in testing, aimed at making his skill floor friendlier in large part. Hoping to have something in for 9.12, depends on how playtesting goes though, first version showed promise but has issues, working on a second version now."
As for the results of the VGU vote, he replied:
"Should have results ready to share within the next 1-2 weeks."
On Sylas, Meddler commented:
"We're looking at some potential changes for 9.12. Main themes being lower waveclear, slightly more single target damage, shield less reliable (current experimental test being E2 gives shield if it hits an enemy)."
And on Rammus, he noted:
"Looking at some simple nerfs for him in 9.11. Lower ult damage and less damage on AAs from passive potential targets."
Meddler gave his opinion on Jayce:
This is likely an unpopular opinion with some, but my personal take is that Jayce has never had a healthy pattern. When he's been successful it's been in ways that leave his opponents with few ways to interact well enough with him in lane or later. Not expecting this current nerf will do anything other than band aid things a little. Wouldn't want to sink a lot of time into Jayce either though until other champs in significantly greater need of work get help first.
Sylas wise we believe wave clear to be a good angle to hit. Tends to be particularly valuable in pro versus other contexts. Means potentially pulling power out of that and then seeing if we can put it elsewhere (though that bit's likely to happen in a follow up patch if so)."
When asked about the recent smaller scale updates that have been testing, Meddler commented:
"Sentiment around us doing such mini updates seems to have been pretty positive. For any given one opinion has been more varied though, hence some getting reassessed. In terms of future work some of these have been projects to take advantages of a bit of spare time between other work (e.g. Blitzcrank), others have been prioritized because of a pressing issue (e.g. Aatrox). Would expect the latter to keep happening regularly, the former to be more variable based off other projects needs over the year."
Team Pass & Fan Pass Hit the Rift on May 31
Check out details on the new Team Pass and Fan pass coming in Patch 9.11 - "Introducing Team Pass and Fan Pass, two experiences that will give players new ways to show off their esports fandom and support their leagues and pro teams."
"Today we are announcing Team Pass and Fan Pass, two experiences that will give players new ways to show off their esports fandom and support their leagues and pro teams. Our goal is to create ways to celebrate esports both when watching matches and playing games on Summoner’s Rift. In past years, major events like the Mid-Season Invitational and the World Championship have provided fans with esports themed items and starting with 2019 Summer Split we’re expanding this effort into the regular season through Team & Fan Pass. We will continue to support free rewards on watch.lolesports.com that have already been introduced.
Fan Pass [Launching in Brazil, Turkey, Latin America, Japan, and Oceania]
Fan Pass is a purchasable set of premium missions that will give you extra rewards for watching on watch.lolesports.com and playing games of League. Purchasable in the League of Legends In-Game Store starting May 31st, the pass will have a 50% revenue share with all teams in your region’s pro league. Grab your popcorn and your Fan Pass, and start earning!
[Fan Pass will be available in the store for 980RP and you’ll be able to earn icons, an emote, a ward skin, and a chroma for Dragonslayer Braum as well as Blue Essence, key fragments, and 2 Masterwork chests.]
Team Pass [Launching in Europe and North America]
Players in Europe and North America will see a slightly different experience with the LEC and LCS Team Passes which are centered around team-specific fandom and rewards. Team Pass holders can select one team to support for the duration of the split, watching their favorite team’s matches on watch.lolesports.com will complete missions that will unlock team-specific items for use when playing League of Legends. Players can purchase one LCS Team Pass and one LEC Team Pass. Team Pass will be available in the League of Legends in-game store starting May 31st and 50% of revenues will support teams in those leagues.
[Team Pass will be available in the store for 980 RP and you’ll be able to earn team icons, a team emote, a team ward skin, and an LCS or LEC chroma for Dragonslayer Braum as well as Blue Essence, key fragments, and 2 Masterwork chests.]
—————–
We think it’s important that, as our sport continues to grow, our leagues, teams, and players share in our combined success. We’re very excited about these launches and will be working to learn as much as possible about which aspects esports fans across the world value most as we look to expand in the future!"
Pro View: Leveling Up the Esports Viewing Experience
"Starting with the 2019 Summer Split, Pro View will give fans greater control of their viewing experience and the ability to follow individual players through a suite of long-requested features. Pro View, League’s newest esports streaming product, will be available for purchase through watch.lolesports.com and proceeds will directly support teams in the LEC & LCS. In addition to Point of View streams for every player in every game, Pro View will include:
- Multiview: Watch up to four synchronized streams (POV or main event) at once during live games and VODs
- Advanced Timeline: Kills, tower takedowns and other big plays are marked right on the timeline, and clicking a marker jumps to that moment in the game
- Watch With Friends: Share a personalized Pro View URL to synchronize your timeline with friends.
- All Pro View features will available on VODs as well as during live games
At launch Pro View will be available for two leagues, the LCS & the LEC, and will come in two different levels, Regional Access & All Access. We will be adding additional leagues and content over time.

- All Access will allow you to use Pro View for both Leagues (LCS & LEC)
Pro View is the latest update to watch.lolesports.com and represents our commitment to the long term success of our partnered teams. Revenues from Pro View will directly support professional teams competing in our leagues around the world. It’s critical that as our sport grows, teams and players share in that success.
Over the past few months, watch.lolesports.com has seen the launch and expansion of Team Pass & Fan Pass, Watch Rewards, Global Schedules, Global VoDs and a new and improved Live Stats System. In the future you’ll continue to see us invest in improving watch.lolesports.com and further integrating it with the core League of Legends game. Our goal is to create a holistic viewing experience that’s optimized for League of Legends esports while still allowing fans to watch on the streaming platform of their choice. We are committed to growing the product in a way that makes watching and interacting with our sport a more engaging experience.
