Riot, can you do a favor for an autistic person?

If I hate one thing, it is disorder. :/

I am an autist. Someone who has improved mathematical and logical thinking, who loves organisation and precision. A bit like a human version of Velkoz ...without that disintegration stuff.

It is nothing what influences my gameplay or disturbs my orienteering. It is just that the recipe items of item 3089 is not in an increasing order.

The actual recipe is: item 1026 < item 1058 >> item 1052

I wish it like this: item 1052 < item 1026 < item 1058

Can you sort the order of the recipe items again? Do it for the clarity™! :)

This didn't bother me before but by God does it bother me now.

For the sake of everyone that is now just realizing this and is currently being driven mad by it, here are some GIFs that should soothe you: http://ak-hdl.buzzfed.com/static/2015-06/1/11/enhanced/webdr04/anigif_enhanced-buzz-19611-1433172358-6.gif http://ak-hdl.buzzfed.com/static/2015-06/1/11/enhanced/webdr07/anigif_enhanced-buzz-25603-1433172983-19.gif http://viralcircus.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/80aWaYk.gif http://viralcircus.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/O5q8I5p.gif http://ak-hdl.buzzfed.com/static/2015-04/7/19/enhanced/webdr08/anigif_enhanced-20280-1428449789-20.gif

I'm chatting with some folks now and pointing them to this thread.

I also have always been slightly irked at this >___< !!!

As someone who also shares a type of obsessiveness and who relevantly mucks around with items, I'm interested in an open dialog on this actually. To cope, I've structured a kind of internal rules for item trees. That appears something like:

  1. "The needs of the design exceeds the needs of the tree" - If the components of an item tree are important for the gameplay of the item, then the components won't adapt for a better feeling tree.
  2. "Components are weighted towards the center" - You can see this more clearly with the new Locket of the Iron Solari build path. As you navigate for any length down the tree, the tree will try to guide you towards the center. Along this line, the Infinity Edge and Rylai's Crystal Scepter trees bother me considerably whereas the Deathcap tree does not.
  3. "Symmetry" - If duplication in effect is possible on the sides of the tree, allow the effect to be duplicated. Warmog's current build path is the most satisfying item to me under this idea.

I've not been particularly pained by incremental ordering. Wanting things to weight towards a central point is a much strong obsession for myself.

So the question I have for you (anyone present in the thread, not just the original poster): What rules drive your visual relationship space that makes you feel good? (For example, "I like to see things increment from left to right") How does each of your rules weight in relation to each other? For those who wish to seek out incremental value, how does Banshee's Veil's build path feel?

Let me get this straight...

Someone that actually has autism and SAYS that they have autism posted on THESE boards and DIDN'T get jumped by the community like a bleeding seal in a tank full of sharks.

Faith in humanity partially restored. This is an unexpectedly mature, understanding, and even downright agreeable thread.

On topic, I too would like an option to customize what the item build paths look like.

I could definitely get behind this. Having things out of order doesn't bother me, but having an order to it could make things a bit easier when time is of the essence.

i think this has nothing to do with autism and is more an Obsessive and Compulsive Dissorder...

This actually used to bother me, but I got to terms with it since many item builds are arranged towards the centre. It's a less mathematical order, but thanks to it, some item recipes are symmetrical or at least really satisfying to look at when you visualize them as graphs (y value determined by gold cost of course). It's pretty obvious I'm autistic too, isn't it?

I always thought it was a flattened triangle with the biggest item at the top.

Dude that's awesome! can you show me your ...

...without that disintegration stuff.

Awwwww...

But for reals this is actually a really good thread with lots of good discussion of mental disorders. Props!

Don't you feel bad sir, I'm not Autistic and I agree wholeheartedly with you!

(Don't even get me started on the Itemization disarray)(No, I'm not making fun of you; this is legitimately something that peeves me)

What the order is:

DEFENSE: Armor Health Health Regen Magic Resist

ATTACK: Attack Speed Critical Strike Damage Life Steal

MAGIC: Cooldown Reduction Mana Mana Regen Ability Power

What the order SHOULD be:

DEFENSE: Armor Magic Resist Health Health Regen

ATTACK: Damage Attack Speed Critical Strike Life Steal

MAGIC: Ability Power Cooldown Reduction Mana Mana Regen

I agreed with your post till you spelt "incrasing" wrong. Thats not very precise ;D

But in all seriousness, I've noticed it as well.

KING OF MASKS8/31/2015, 10:35:48 PM6 votes

I actually like how it is now; you have the most expensive, most impactful item right in the center, and then it goes in decreasing order from left to right.

Kinda like one of these: http://previews.123rf.com/images/alexmillos/alexmillos1211/alexmillos121100062/16116827-gold-trophy-cup-1st-place-illustration-design-Stock-Vector.jpg

Not sure if that logic applies to similar items, though (unfortunately much too lazy to look it up right now).

Most people with Autism can't use computers. Those who can, normally end up using it as a medium for special communication, because they can't use normal words and conversation. It seems almost purposeful the raw dissociation of aspergers and autism, as complete attacks on those who really have the disease. It's comparable to saying, you're blind and paralyzed, but you decided to come talk to us on the forum today. You're not autistic. Even if you have a form of autism, you're still not autistic, because you're communicating very well.

You're a disgrace to humanity, if the premise of your joke is the 'accidental' confusion of Autism, and Aspergers, and OCD. You could also just be a dumb Aspy, wouldn't be the first, but the OP seems intentionally making fun of handicap people to me.
