@RiotFeralPony also I get to play muramana iceborn lizard liandry ezreal and kite people non stop on 140 ping this is goated that I'm able to do that (netcode feels amazing even with lag)
@RiotFeralPony after playing 51 games I think day 1 is going to be really well balanced. I hope the game stays feeling like this because every game feels close now that matchmaking is better (I don't know if it was changed but last 2 days feels way better with less newbies in lobbies)
@duelmonstersoul im confused why is pisstopher batman trilogy man the baddie? did people realise his movies aren't that great but are just made by a team who are very skilled at the technical craft (and would be better on other projects)
@RiotHeckler I suppose a third thing would be matchmaking. I feel like half my team mates have 1k games a year on league the other half are freshly birthed into the world and decide full ap blitz with no sighstone is optimal. but I guess that's a result of PBE vs live matchmaking
@Wingsofdeathx So right now could be just "lets see if people play and stick around". Although I'd argue it's counterproductive because if features are missing people might not play for that reason alone
@Wingsofdeathx I'd like think in good faith that this is a temporary plan, with ranked being in the works for next szn. Right now they've put a lot of work into something that could flop on paper so maybe they went for the lowest cost options
@drewlevin I bring this up because it's a subject where it's so hard to know whether somebody truly knows the subject since most discussions boil down to "btw guys I know how the system in xyz game REALLY works and you won't believe this!" then talks about their wild theories
@drewlevin as somebody who has read up on the subject from FIDE's introduction of arpad elo's rating system, thru to modern engagement and trueskill based systems I can thoroughly say I have no clue anymore. It's an infinitely deep well of potential solutions and my head hurts
