To the Programmers at Riot Games
I'm a high school student who is aspiring to become a programmer. Recently, I became involved in a robotics competition called Zero Robotics, in which, using C++, you must program a virtual robot in zero gravity to perform certain challenges autonomously. I've come to learn syntax, organization, and have applied a lot of the math skills I learn in class. However, the hardest part, by far, is the logical thinking and how many factors I have to take into account.
This got me thinking- all I have do is program a robot to take pictures of certain spots on an asteroid, and its pretty hard. I can't even begin to imagine the amount of effort required by the Riot programmers to even get the game to work with 10 champions, nevermind 100! That isn't even including the AI, which must have been total monsters, or my favorite champion Kha'Zix, with his four evolutions.
So this is a thank you to all the hard-working Riot Programmers. For making and constantly improving my favorite game.
