First, thank you for such a thoughtful and well said post, this is what makes every single engagement a Dev has mean so much to them and the community.

And that’s what Drew set out to do…to get League back to our roots and engage with players directly and show up consistently. To be honest, we had a void in that area for a little bit and the community felt that and knew it too, he wanted to help fill that void. Does that mean he always gets it right, no, and he’d be the first one to say that, but he shows the fuck up time and time again. And that’s taxing it takes a toll, but the passion for players and for League is why he and a number of other Devs show up the way they do for the community.

Is it part of their “job” not in the JD but it’s what’s always made Riot/League different than any other developer and it always will be. Because even with hate and rhetoric from folks who would only ever say these things on a social media platform Devs will continue to show up for players. @RiotMeddler , @RiotPabro , August, MLH, Eduardo, Ezra, Chris Roberts, Mireles and countless others are always engaging and making content on their own time to provide those connection point for players.

It’s in our DNA because you all have shown it’s what you all love about League through the ups and downs. So will every engagement be perfect, no, but we learn, we adjust and we move forward together.

So, NO, this type of hate on social media doesn’t represent the collective community and never will, and it’s why Devs continue to show up for the community in ways that are authentic to them.

Thank you again for the kind words, I know they mean a lot to a lot of folks

Bryce and I first chatted about this opportunity back in March when I was in the early stages of figuring out how to expand the team as I continued to help scale up other games like Riftbound.

Since then, we’ve had a lot of conversations about what the future of TFT needs and how we can take it into its next iteration of growth. I’m so excited to have someone like Bryce in the role who can deeply empathize with high level players, pros, and creators. Please don’t hold back in your chats with Bryce, he wants to hear it all!

Everyone on our team wanted to give you all one last surprise. They not only poured their love and passion into Samira, but also managed to find a way to do the same with Sett as well.

They are both so fun, and we can't wait for you to get your hands on them. Much love.

The announced changes to replays are being delayed to patch 26.21.

We are working on a solution to ensure the creators and coaches out there that rely on replays are not meaningfully impacted by this change and want to have that in place before this goes live.

Sam Altman (@sama) wrote that the hardest thing to do in business is build a company that keeps innovating and stays at the top of its industry for decades.

In 2016, he asked Michael Moritz how Sequoia has done it. Sam said the answer was so good that he asked if they could release it publicly, which YC had never done before.

Moritz's answer comes down to five ideas.

(1) Yesterday is irrelevant
(2) Keep the team fresh
(3) Change with the market
(4) Stay one step from going out of business
(5) Take on the incumbents (this is what keeps him going)
