So... When is Aurelion Sol Coming Back?

Riot its been about 2 or 3 days now of Aurelion being disabled. I know that these stars not being seen is problematic but seriously, couldn't this have just been fixed back when it was first cited. Like, instead of leaving it to be fully exposed after this recent patch? As an aurelion player, this isn't really fair as I basically cant play and win ranked games as well. Even though this champion has a very low play rate doesn't mean he shouldn't have as much work put into fixing his bugs or giving him a skin, because you guys probably have at least 20 people working on the new pool party skins, and probably 5 or 6 working on Aurelion Sol rn. I don't mean to be rude or anything, but i would just like some context on this issue. Thanks.

(also, im prepared for the downvotes lol) [sg-janna] why riot why

Targon got tired of his shit.

he'll be back when he's fixed. Pretty sure they just have a team for bugfixing, not for bugfixing a specific champion.

You're also pulling the unpopular card as if that matters. Pretty sure teemo was disabled for a whole week at some point. "fix it when you find out", if only bugs worked like that, this game would actually work perfectly in that case.

the only thing that might take away manpower from aurelion is the current dash animation bug in aram, which is much more important as it affects +/- 140 champs compared to just one.

I would be willing to bet he will be back when scuttle is reverted and jungle is balanced again (in weak state now) to not be 2-4 levels of experience behind solo laners (which you know is one of the reasons gold funneling has increased 5 million fold) and riot admits they made a mistake with both of them.

So I would guess the eta of AureSol to be back around season 11.

In all seriousness tho wish him a speedy recovery with chicken noodle with star soup.

This was a super weird one. We had this bug come up a few patches ago (8.12 I think?), and we shipped a fix for it, only to find the same symptom (invisible stars) crop again but for a different reason. I'd talked to the engineer looking at this bug on Friday and he had a fix, and I believe that it's getting tested over the weekend to be deployed next week (if I recall correctly). The fix isn't simple so it's not something that could be rushed out for fear of breaking something else. Sorry you're missing out on your fave champ this weekend :(

my guess is still after worlds because hes too good but not flashy enough so the bug him to take him out of the scene

I mean you're just arbitrarily pulling numbers out of the air which doesn't help your point. Your also assuming the people who work on skins could be pulled out of their department o fix A Sol when it doesn't work like that. Sorry, a graphic designer isn't going to be able to help fix him lol. For all we know they have extra people on it working overtime for a fix. Yeah it sucks, but I'm pretty sure Riot isn't slacking off while one of their champs is disabled

I feel you, I remember back when Fiddlesticks got disabled for a week. There was a bug on his Ultimate that allowed him to Bypass the channel & just pop a crowstorm instantly.

Aurelion will be back soon, just you wait.

Rexxiee7/21/2018, 1:05:03 PM2 votes

He should be disabled until nerfed tbh, almost a 57% wr on average, absolutely broken.

remakoro7/21/2018, 2:45:25 PM2 votes

Right after they hire capable team to fix all of this shit.

Ionian Vulpix7/21/2018, 4:48:19 PM2 votes

It"s a weekend. They'll go back to fixing it on Monday.

Aurelion Sol can win games!?

Just gonna put this out there, I'm also an ASol one trick and I also falter in playing other champions, but the thing is, you gotta get better AT those other champions in order to fall back on something

Community: Riot why can they see orbs when in bushes?

Riot: Now they can't see them at all XD

undercover90007/24/2018, 1:59:22 PM2 votes

if it was a Yasuo Lux or Zed bug their would not even disable them just wait for the next patch. Like when mecha kha was found to be a pay to win skin they just disabled the skin. The aurelion sol bug is only with his skin yet they disabled the whole champ .. Riot we can see your greed growing more everyday as you lose more players and viewership

Wild Geese7/22/2018, 4:31:45 AM1 votes

At least it's not like that season where Kha'Zix was disabled like 50 times.
