"Our communication was bad"
Gee, this sounds familiar.
Remember when you said that you weren't being dishonest or trying to dodge the topic, Riot Socrates?
"We're not trying to be dishonest or dodge this topic." (http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/riot-official/6WuZKauE-new-champ-select-update?comment=0037) Bullshit. You dodged this topic and made only TWO FUCKING ATTEMPTS to address this topic before announcing it had been canned. And that whole announcement was basically an ex-pro, a youtuber, an engineer, a PR guy, and a designer all saying "it's fucking terrible".
Remember when that whole Riot Pls PR bullshit thing came out? "When the team made its recent update, a lot of players took away the conclusion of “no solo queue” -- that we were hiding from a hard conversation by being purposefully vague."
purposefully vague
So why the fuck did it take so long to reach this point, and why was SO LITTLE SAID ON THE MATTER?
Do any of you at Riot have an answer for this? Why is a company who praises "transparency" so god damn opaque? [zombie-brand-clap]
Also, god do I love Scarra now. I never cared for him but god damn did that grilling he gave your boys for fucking up dynamic queue and communication regarding solo queue in general made me smile.
