What Happened To The Patch Notes Roundtable? Can You Bring It Back?

I'm kind of missing it. Sure, there was some controversy but that is not a reason to just flat out remove it.

I mean, if you make fools out of yourselves after the whole "SoloQ will definitely come back" dilemma you got yourselves in after you lied about it and then tried to make up for it by uploading a discussion video and swearing a lot I don't see how proceeding to not make any discussion roundtables ever again will make you look any better.

And let me focus on that again, making it an actual discussion roundtable. Before your last video were you invited Scarra who was highly critical of you, you just invited people who where on the same side as you.

You want to regain the trust of your players? This would be the way to do it. Don't just avoid conflict and say that everything will be fine and dandy, invite your critics to discuss with you and debunk them live on camera. If you end up putting out something bad then admit it and if your critics are wrong, invite them again to show that Riot is in fact not a company that does not know anything about their game.

Here's the last roundtable they put out before they stopped making them: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwPa1SGLGv0

I will expect there to be a series of videos for the preseason, when the big changes happen. These things take a lot of time and money to make so they only do them for big patches

I think they do those for larger scope changes, which have not really been present the last few patches due to Worlds and the end of the season.

I imagine they will do something like this for the pre-season changes when they hit live (not PBE). I hope so! I enjoy them too.
