Hey folks,

Thread here for discussion around the mid-season follow up post that just went up:

http://na.leagueoflegends.com/en/news/game-updates/gameplay/state-season-mid-season-followup

I'll be here to chat about our thoughts on gameplay for the next hour or two, with some additional responses throughout the day where time permits.

Edit: Gotta head off to a meeting now, will be back later when time permits.

Can we have a discussion on Mordekaiser and what people feel should be preserved in his VGU once you decide to start working on him^^ You had a similar type of discussion over Taric a while back

We’ll also be investigating some form of universal ‘this champion is invulnerable and won’t take damage at present’ visual language at some point to make it easier to tell at a glance who’s currently immune to damage (Taric ult, Trynd ult, Kindred ult etc).

Why not just make the health bars of the invuln champions turn Zhonya's Gold? Maybe even make them shimmer with the same particles?

Just seems like the simplest and most readable way to show an enemy (or ally) is immune through all the gameplay clutter.

Can you make an adjustment to the random factor of ARAM, so that both teams have an equal chance of winning based on champion winrates? Because in some games you already know you gonna lose with 5 meele dudes against Varus, Xerath etc

@Meddler

You told us that after the end of the World 2016 you'll prolly work on another class update, have you settle down on which one ? Which champion would you see on the top protagonist for a diver/skirmisher class update ?

Thanks for answering.

How will Support's XP be changed; something similar to the past mastery where being near an ally grants XP? :)

Are you planning on releasing more items which are defined by their actives like Protobelt? Its the only way to truly increase item diversity and you know it. Also it makes the game more fun to play, making games feel different from each other and increase the individual skill ceiling. Honestly there are so many benefits that im really baffled why you have yet to take this apporach (proven succeful by other MOBAs already)

Urgot is there any plans for urgod in the future? i feel that his kit is needed in this meta, with all of the high mobility going on. Auto lock abilities would be nice ._.
