@rjcombo @Morello,

Is there any chance we could possible see achievements being implements in Season 3? Also, do you think Riot as a whole would/could ever create a animated movie or campaign mode out of League of Legends?

Gold per minute please

I know there were stats for gold per minute for pros at a tourney. Would be nice to have readily available, especially for match history to compare between matches against the numbers of pros

A suggestion for the UI if it has not already been mentioned.

I believe it would be a good idea to implement some mechanic where if you hover over the icon for an ability the mana bar greys out how the percentage of the bar it would use or the amount would blink/fade in and out for that amount. This could also be implemented when you select an ability if it is a target/skillshot in which you have to make a second click (if not smartcasting).

Just a thought. It may be a bit of a hand holdy idea, i'm not sure.

A suggestion I have is this:

We could change the order of the masteries and runes. As a organized person, I like these things to help me find the runes/masteries I want.
=)

Why do I find the first answer void ?

New maps is a no since Dominion and TT are still imbalanced in many aspects.

All-new mechanics won't happen due to the mental barrier in your champion design and mostly going in a circle of rehash.

Reworks and support neither, the blatant failure of the summoner system (hello 9 Flash) is taboo.

Better balance is basically murdering emergent gameplay.


The future direction of LoL is to provide more of the same, and keep up the sales.
As if the more employees Riot gains, the less the game evolves

AFAIK, it doesn't take up appreciably more space on the screen, it's just better to have rather than trying to keep up with a bunch of other cooldowns for your teammates.

A great example of this is not wanting to fight until your tank and/or carry has certain key spells up, or not forcing baron when Smite is on cooldown.

Pretty please with sunglasses on top?
This.

I've been creating threads about this for months now...

If you decide to somehow change / revamp the UI yet skip this addition, it will be incomplete.

Just PLEASE add the spectator sidebar to real games.

Any plans to add voice chat into the game? I know there are down sides (trolls blowing up voice chat, ragers raging hard etc) but adding a mute button in the tab screen would fix most if not all of those. The pros would be nice (easier team communication, more immersive game play, not having to take your hands off the mouse to communicate with) and in my opinion out weigh the cons to it.

Can you make it so it only works if the person leaving is NOT someone you queued with? I think that would take care of all abuse.

Sorry I haven't responded to this thread in a while. There's been a lot going on here, and I'm not just referring to the world championships. =)

Changes to runes and masteries falls under the purview of live design, which is lead by Morello/Geeves.

We still intend to revisit death recap, but it's not our highest priority at the moment.
