I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.
There's five female champions on that team I'll never be able to tell apart at a glance, and LeBlanc.

It’s weird their signatures are part of the skin, do they get royalties? Ha yea right Riot probably owns every dumb screen name in the game. It’s probably buried in the EULA.

They addressed that a few years ago, they do get royalties but I think it's only like 10% at best on every skin sold.

e:

quote:

- Team Championship skins - Beginning with the winning team from this year’s Worlds, we will be sharing 25% of the revenue earned on skin sales in the launch year of each set of Team Championship skins directly with the players who inspired them, as well as their team and league (because it takes a village to make a champion). In the spirit of celebrating past champions, we’ll also be sharing revenue from past Team Championship skins with the previous winners - players, teams and leagues (Fnatic, TPA, SKT, Samsung White and SKT again)
Still vague so I'm sure that 25% is broken up between the org and player, so on a $10 skin the player is probably getting $2.50 if it's split even. If iG Rookie's skin sells 10,000 he'll make $250 I guess

They're only sold in the store for a year, after that they're replaced by the next set of Worlds skins and can only be gotten from chests. I think I remember hearing before that Worlds skin sales usually end up giving the team around $8-10m.

Yeah they're all out of the vault for a month during MSI and like two months during World's and they retroactively started paying out for the old skins but it's still probably less than an active pro makes streaming for a month

I really love the effects on all of those champions but Rakan twice in a row makes me real sad because I'm bad at Rakan no matter how many games of him I try to play to get better. :(

You don't get autofilled during promotions, during placements you can be autofilled.

It's because Darius is probably the most capable of actually getting an ARAM penta if played well, just by pentadunking.

~70, as is Ziggs. There are ~25 champs rocking ~60%+ winrates in ARAM

Yeah, Sona and Ziggs are stronger, but they're not as unfun, imo.

New mechanic idea: Instead of randomizing champs, every time you click on a champ in champ select for ARAM the game randomly either bans it, or locks it in for you.

it should actually be DoubleBanned and carry over into the next game for those who banned it, allowing them a second ban

epic. id like to build on this where instead if a champion is banned or picked like 100% of the time as is the case for hrm let's say as an example, the inconceivable samurai champion, RIOT games llc makes efforts to balance or ideally remove it from the game forever

not sure if i agree on it but one related change i think we can all get behind is creating a protection so you can never ban zoe and then buffing her until she gets at least 90% pick rate

aram bans are unbelievably lame, but “both teams ban = available” is a potentially hilarious mechanic

poke is also getting a nerf, though, so we have to say what plays out after all the changes.

Sona will always be a good ban because if she hits 16 her team is very likely to win.
