Taking a break from competitive League to focus on career and family this split, disappointing last 2 splits, but probably the most fun I've ever had too, shoutout to the amazing team @VirtusoEUW @Chryssey_ADC @Taxerr_@baumeeflol for making it so fun in the first place
@Strompest You should also try Approach Velocity syndra, you basically have perma uptime with it leading to insane spacing, it also helps you get in range, do damage, and get out during lane, if you go swifties you also get a bit more AP/spacing capability too.
The mandate tech is OP tho
My time at Riot and on TFT as a Game Designer has come to an end. Just under 10 years, and to be honest I thought it was going to be longer, but sometimes things change.
-------------------------------------------------
I’m so grateful for what I was able to be a small part of, and able to accomplish in the last decade. It’s been a dream career, and I have got to do so much thanks to Riot. Even trying to list it all feels insane what I managed to do in this time. And the crazy 7 years on TFT where I got to design, balance, teach, lead, and more for my job, but then also build a community, stream, cast, go to events…it’s just been amazing. Ending on stuff like the Unlock system and a couple other things…I’m heading out proud.
To everyone I worked with over the years, thank you for letting me be a part of everything we accomplished. I hope I managed to teach you something or bring you joy in some way. I genuinely hope our paths cross again in the future.
To everyone who supported TFT or me over the years, you have no idea what it means to me. I cherish all the moments over the years, and they’ll keep me going. I am so blessed to have been a part of your lives and thank you for letting me bring some fun into your world.
-----------------------------------------------------
So…what’s next for me? I’m trying to figure that out.
First off, since I was on sabbatical and am terrible at relaxing/not working, I have been making my own small indie game. I’m about 2 months into development and have already had folks playtesting some early builds. I’d say the game is like 20-30% done, but my goal is to release it as a full game. It’s been fun keeping my skills sharp in a different space, and I hope to share it with you all someday.
Beyond that, I’m keeping my eyes open for other opportunities. I’ve had a few conversations here and there already during my Sabbatical. It’s a brutal industry right now, so I’m taking one day at a time and figuring out what’s next for me, whether it’s working on another studio’s game or even my own thing.
And I’d love to find a space to do some content creation and be able to share my knowledge of game development. But that may take some time to figure out how to do it right.
-------------------------------------------------------Again, thank you for everything these last 10 years. It’s a big change and I’m nervous but hoping it all works out. Until next time, take it easy!

@GBSett_Main To get out of Emerald by yourself, you need to learn and pick champs that can solocarry vs the enemy team.
Ofc some games are just unwinnable, but you can also influence that by being kind and saving peoples mentals. I've legit won unwinnable games by untilting my teammates.
@Varry_lol Is this a lowelo list or? I'm not understanding why ori and xin are S++ tier, ori was fundamentally nerfed with the removal of phase rush for a lot of matchups, and Xin, while being strong, isn't without counters and isn't blindable.
Brand is mad I ban his champion, doesn't hover it, it is my permaban for a year almost. He will flame everygame and begs for FF. This game he does the most blatant inting I have ever seen. Please give him a vacation. (Likely bought acc too) LOL

@drewlevin
Thought people might enjoy this tierlist from the recent item changes, looking for anyone's' opinions or champions I've left out.
I've only added champs I thought would be directly affected by the rune/item changes, on day1 of patch.
Would now add Kalista to very strong and happy
@JoeMommasMeta Try this, except Voltaic Rush, go POM and manaflow + comet, dont go manamune (25 on-hit dmg is not worth it.) Instead, go Voltaic, Shiv, Dusk then Terminus + 1, Rabba, Zhonya, Banshee, whatever. You can also commit to full poke Varus with Cyclo too.
@LeagueOfLeaks Legit anyone complaining about this need to get over themselves, Valo, CSGO, Dota all have voicecomms and operate fine, and no one is being forced - Mic in their face you have to SPEAK - like a lot of people are believing they will be.
Ill be quitting competetive League Of Legends, its just 2 mentally draining, the game is unfun, I have no motivation left in me anymore and it must be one of the most unrewarding things that are there out there.
Gl on your journeys!
