If you had a chance to become a Rioter for a week....

What would you do?

Mine is to simply disguise myself as an ordinary player (since to be a rioter, your username had to include the name "Riot", eg. Riot KateyKhaos or Riot Phreak), and then play any normal or rank games. When someone will go say something like** "going mid""but I called mid first""fine ill feed"**, or when he afk-ed either for fun or feeds first blood and thinks the game is lost, or anything troll-related, I will send them to a straight 3 years suspension, cause perma-ban is too heavy & a "little bit" too punishing, amirite ;)

My job.

Hopefully well enough to convince them to keep me on after day 8.

Pssst, our names don't have to have "Riot" in them. :]

If I got to work for Riot my first thing will be to help improve the support class.

  1. Improve the itemization of support
  • either make new items with different actives or passives and not just put a 10% cool down on it.
  • Make more ap support items for ap utility support.
  • Make this item 2045 more useful so support player wants to spend money on it.
  1. Make support feel like they are important in the game -Either call out players who have gotten 10 assist in row without dying or gotten a kill. It will be nice to hear the announcer to say "ALLY IS ON AN ASSIST SPREA!!!!" -When the game ends let support players see cool stuff on match history and not just assist, wards and how much heals. Example How much damage was absorbed by your shield either on ally or yourself. How many times you slowed, stuned, knock-back, polymorph and other cc an enemy. Also show where you did it and who you did it on.

Well this is my dream probably will never happen.

This reminds me of when I was made moderator of an online game, on my very first day I banned another moderator, because he broke the rules, wasn't an easy decision to make, but it was the right one.

So what would I do if given the chance? Make it worthwhile.

I already know that a lot of projects are under development and as such there's not much to be done for a 'rookie', what I can do is participate and argue for (or against) subjects I am knowledgeable in, and take in as much in the subjects I am uncertain of.

But most importantly, when the week is up, make sure to leave it a happier place than when I found it, cause at the end of the day these guys are the reason we have a game.

Well, you seem like a dick.

If I were a Rioter for a week, I would fix the lore. All of it.

Also I would go to an Aviary with Ironstylus.

On the last day, I would secretly buff those who were left behind.

Rammus Diana Urgot Varus Taric Quinn Galio Gragas Trundle Vladimir Shyvana Poppy Yorick TwistedFate Rumble Nidalee Anivia Brand Evelynn Elise Kassadin Xerath Nautilus Mordekaiser Jax Zac Twitch

Considering some of these guys are probably just hidden picks, there would be some seriously screwed up champs. XD

Fix lore, get rid of or rework lee sin so he inst a jack of all trades

Rainbow Wasp2/8/2015, 9:40:17 AM2 votes

Hmmm...

  • Put in Team Fortress 2 skins with new voicelines for certain champions (Soldier Tristana, Spy Evelynn, Demoman Ziggs or Engineer Heimerdinger anyone?).
  • Secretly nerf Riven for a day just for the hell of it.
  • Make expired gamemodes playable in custom games at the cost of getting no rewards, so URF whiners can stop whining.
  • Replace the entire LC$ thing with awesome art made by the community, viewable in a handy gallery on the website and in the launcher.
  • Speaking of LC$, ban popular LC$ champions for every game and see what happens.

You know you can just apply for a job at Riot on their website, they have many different jobs in many different locations all around the world.

Maximum Zilean2/6/2015, 7:53:46 AM2 votes

Finally rework Lee sin and make him not overloaded beyond reason. Seriously, no matter how they change the jungle. Lee sin finds a way to be overpowered in it! I'd just flat out remove some of the stuff he doesn't need while keeping his identity in check as that highly mobile early game brute.

What he doesn't need is the power to be a huge threat late game just by being there! He needs some reasonable way of falling off late game.

Purodyuusaa2/9/2015, 2:30:27 AM1 votes

I would do the responsible thing and challenge all my favorite Rioters to a game of poker. I give a lot of them hell on occasion when things come out I don't agree with, but I also praise them when things happen that I like.

KateyKhaos, Frosthaven, IronStylus, Sweet, Penguin, Meddler, Tamat, and the rest of you. I hope you know a Full House beats a Flush because I'm ready to own you.

If I was a rioter for a whole week... That would mean after 1 week I'm not anymore right? In that case, I would read the hell out of all archive and on-going project, maybe leak some afterwards if I feel generous. But probably only hint to get some hype.

Puri Puri Taric2/10/2015, 2:17:03 AM1 votes

I would work on a taric rework 7 days straight (Hehe straight) and give him The polish he deserves Then when im done From The coffee induced workrage, i would present rito my 1 shtty drawing i made .... JK i would release The Best gem Knight rito has ever Seen. And i will play him all Night long shattering Faces and stomping goons.Taric

Learn everything I can from everyone ans persuade them to make an item and champ based of of me :3 Implement a game mode on a new map where players pick a handful of champs and are randomly switched to a different eveytime the die unti their are out, i'll call it "Gamble Scramble" Rework my favourite champ Shen, who is one of the few champs I feel soul linked with, the other being mal but I find him very balanced. Win or Lose everything just seems right with Mal.

I would gift all the skins to another account. I love free goodies!

I would take suggestions for skin concepts and try to actually make them happen.

I would honestly just pop into games and just play the game and prove that Rioters can be scrubs too.

Design a champion, I want to rival CertainlyT

Starlight Knight2/28/2015, 3:35:19 PM1 votes

I'd scramble everyone's abilites! Ever see a Lissandra toss out a tornado? (Lissandra Yasuo )

Ever think about Annie tossin' out kegs left and right? (Annie Gragas )

Ever imagine the all mighty Demacian Garen throwing sparkles at his enemies? (Garen Lulu)

I don't know but it'd be hysterical to see people playing their favorite champs only to has weird ability set ups.

BastionKross2/28/2015, 3:57:29 PM1 votes

Day 1 - Goodbye Teemo, spend rest of day dining on bacon with a certain avian Rioter.

Day 2 - Rework LeeSin kit completely with the overall goal being him not being viable in every team comp.

Day 3 - item 2049 now has different enchantments like the jungle items and boots instead of the item 2045 upgrade.

Day 4 - Ash Williams skin for Gangplank, complete with new VO that says "Groovy" after every kill.

Day 5 - Create brand new item similar to item 3060 whose primary purpose is to boost the stats of champion pets.

Day 6 - summoner 31 is now a permanent addition to all ARAM games.

Day 7 - Challenge Phreak to a pun contest, make the champion rework team write "You will remember Yorick Mori" a thousand times each, and then get fired by telling Tryndamere that he most certainly can not milk those.

I would convince them to make cheaper recolors again!

I would ban every person in my blacklist for a year and put myself in a queue with a 'fair' team consisting of players hand-picked for skill/ability. in the last year I have had a lot of trouble having fun with this game. Instead of playing just to play, I am constantly in matches where there is a zero percent chance to win and I want to have what I can not have and this causes frustration with my teammates and in turn it causes angry teammates which results in my being reported and a very long string of issues that lead up to my somber opinion if this game.

Put some color back into Ahri's skin.

At least in her icon. You thought I was talking about something else?

CupcakeTrap2/7/2015, 7:45:35 PM1 votes

I would wear a purple hoodie and call everyone Summoner until Narrative had me removed from the building. At which point I would shout, "The Council will hear of this outrage! The Riotous Fists Clan has gone too far this time! BY THE MOTHERSHIP I SWEAR I SHALL HAVE SATISFACTION FOR THIS INSULT!"

It would be a glorious forty-five minutes.

Alternatively: I would print out lots of Kalista comics and tape them to the walls.

i would nerf lee cause no one at riot want do it

I would make Ao Shin the next champion to be released due to his idea is very neat and wanted by many people.

Nerf lee sin and delete teemo. Basically remove the cancer killing league

I would make Lee Sin's kit scales so hard he can one shot early game.

But I think we can all agree that Teemo is going to get deleted.

I'd figure out what's keeping Lux's skin from coming out, and then move it to the top of the skin priority list.

Re-Estabilish some form of real control over reports, both in normal games and ranked ones, making it truly effective. "Normal" is not an excuse for ruining gaming experience to other people.

Balance the actual jungle by re-estabilish a true diversity of pick (no more holy trinity Lee Sin/J4/Vi).

Gut Zed to the ground as he deserves it, in a way he will still be viable of course: I'm no scumbag balance team Rioter who favours a champ over others.

I'll focus more on re-working/re-balancing old glories than focussing on getting new champs with 27 spammable gap closers, hard CCs, soft CCs, lifesteal, spell vamp, shields, steroids and executes, all in a new, satisfacting, brillant, LC$PROBIGPLAYZ kit.

I'll make a game for the people who love and enjoy playing it, not just for a few bunch of teams who have to make money around it.
