Weekly Community Roundup - June 7, 2017

ModWuks··25 votes·5,217 views

Hey everyone, and welcome to our second edition of 'Weekly Community Roundup', your one-stop-shop for great conversations from the past 7 days! We know some of you aren't able to follow the Boards as much as you'd like to, so we'll work to fill the gaps in the meantime. Without further ado, here's what you may have missed while you were busy climbing the ranked ladder:


Kick-Ass Conversations

Positive, Negative, or Neutral?

The Arbiters kick off their first 'The Verdict' post with chat logs from one of the players who volunteered last week.

What Did That Ashe Just Build?

League Tutorial's biggest meme sparks a greater discussion about what can be done to improve the new player experience.

Exxez and His Sketchez

Exxez takes up a 'sketch a day' goal and posts his early progress.

Crunching the Numbers

Pyro takes a look and gives a breakdown of the changes to support itemization currently on the Public Beta Environment.

This Week’s Stickies

Patch Chat with the Playtest Team

Patch 7.11 features a new gameplay dynamic for Rek'Sai, and Malzahar sees some quality of life stat adjustments. Players discuss their thoughts with the Playtest Team.

Meet Blitzcrank Bot 🤖

The Riot Engineering Team introduces one of the Player Support agents, but this one's composed of 0's and 1's.

The Roffles

Hypothetically Speaking...

Your main's passives are three times as powerful; how overpowered are they?

Guess That Ultimate!

Players find the best images and GIFs to represent their champion mains. Can you guess them right?


Thanks for tuning in, and feel free to point out any great conversations we may have missed!

We can definitely work on the theming to make it more readable. Any suggestions?

EDIT: I'll work on tuning down some of the contrast on the page. Let me know if it looks better. EDIT2: I've used the default dark blue theme, since we've gotten good feedback on this in the past.

Your posts seem to have a more gray/ opaque color, if that were universal, I wouldn't know how to differentiate your comments from the others, but it doesn't seem that hard, I think that would help the contrast issue.

Each alternating comment has the opposite color to the one preceding it, so this one's dark because your comment uses a light background. Was that what your concern was?

dolce de leche1 votes

nah, just a suggestion. seems you got it covered tho. the only comments that were that way at the time were yours, so I didn't realize that. ty for responding tho!

I made it onto this post? Nice! Thanks for the feature!

However, someone else posted something similar that actually inspired me to make the 3x passive power conversation. Here's the link to theirs: https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/memes/I60or8X9-your-mains-q-can-now-crit-and-apply-on-hit-effects-how-broken-are-they-now Thanks for the inspiration, StealthVortex88

Would it be possible to put some CCOS-related content in here after each one concludes?

E.G. the week in which results are posted you feature the winning concept and results page. I think that would be a cool way to advertise Concepts and Creations.

Good news -- I've actually already talked with Wuks a bit about how to promote C&C in this feature. Can't promise it'll take exactly this form on a regular basis, but it's definitely something that's on his radar. :)

As The Djinn mentioned, we're looking at featuring player creations in some way or another, and one of the things we've been discussing is featuring them in this publication or in a separate publication. Ensuring that the content creators' efforts are recognized to the best extent that we can. Thanks for the feedback :)

Getting my feet wet more in the boards as of recent. Big fan of "The Verdict"! I've always fancied analyzing conversations/discerning intent/etc. since I was jury foreman in a murder trial - an experience like that will certainly tune your receivers, if you know what I mean!

Haha! Honestly, there was good information in that post, and it definitely sparked a bunch of discussion regarding those changes. Kudos to you, and if you see or make any good posts, send 'em my way and I'll hopefully be able to spotlight it in this series :)

Mind if I ask, how do I "send 'em your way"? There is no PM function on Boards that I know of, and in-client chat isn't an option either due to us belonging to different servers :P

Hopefully whatever I cook up will be popular and visible enough to warrant a spotlight on its own ;)

You can contact me via email at [email protected] or Discord at Wuks#5471, but I'll also be posting a more direct way for submitting these types of posts in the very near future. :O

There'll be a new one each week! As of now, they're posted around Wednesday morning, but I may want to start shifting them to Monday mornings at some point. Thanks for the kind words!

I've been doing a bit of a set of celebration posts all about Karthus from June 1 - 12 (the day that marks the 8th year of his Release), and I'm calling "The 12 Days of Karthus!" :D

look a jhin glitch

That looks like a pretty nasty bug. The best place to post it is in the Report a Bug sub-board, where the appropriate teams can review this further. Thanks!
