So, guess who was AFK this game? Guess who left the room already? I'll bet even Rioters couldn't figure this out because it's so damn confusing! Please revert the new coloring of the names back to the way it was.

FYI: Everyone left the room and no one was AFK. So WTH is the different between red and grey on the enemy team? And why am I orange?

It's amazing how much negative feedback I see on this, yet they don't want to change it lol.

FarRockBF12/17/2015, 4:10:05 AM7 votes

Yup, 15 minutes later, colors still the same. Everyone has left...

KoKoboto12/17/2015, 12:44:56 PM7 votes

For me all the names just stay gray at times.... and in post-game chat all the names are blue Rito please change back

Riot has already responded to this. It wasn't supposed to go live this patch and they'll fix it next patch.

I hate this new lobby system, but I can tell it's Ryze

Yeah, this is confusing AF. Riot good grief.

The colors represent the enemy team and your team, you're orange so you find yourself (however helpful that is), and the people who are grey are people who left the room or haven't entered yet I believe.

some times all the names show as grey color even though there's still people in the room. lol. This change is bugged as fuck

You know on that note, you know what would be a neat concept. If Red =Toxic, Orange = Slightly toxic, Blue = Positive, Grey = Neutral, White = AFK

It's just buggy. They likely won't change as it's too close to holidays to risk an even buggier build.

This is extremely irritating and inaccurate..wth.

I agree, I have no idea what the colors mean at end game anymore, beyond that they make absolutely no sense.

Another winning change by riot.

Hmmm there must be something wrong with my client since all the names are dark grey after each match. I saw the new colors for a day then they disappeared

Orange is you Blue is your teammates Red is the enemy team If the honor button is greyed out, that means they were AFK. Grey does not seem to mean anything. It has no correlation to if a player has left the room or not.

Edit: Unfortunately, there is no way to tell who is still in the room from looking at the list anymore. The only way is by digging through the piles of text that say when each person individually left the room.

from what i can tell...you are garen, youre whole team is present in the lobby. karthus and caitlyn have left the lobby and the the other three are present. I am pretty sure when there is an official afk there is like an x or something on them.

This is one of those times where you can really lose faith in programmers. This doesn't seem like a hard thing to do and get right. I think I know why the game has so many problems now.

Dalanin12/17/2015, 6:07:09 PM1 votes

Well for me, everytime i join the after game chat i can't see who's online nor who left, all the names are grey for some reason

Zedex12/17/2015, 6:16:02 PM1 votes

Feels like its prep for the new client. Except they're fudged up a bit of coding, clearly.

Yeah I'm always super confused lol

Taricrageous12/17/2015, 9:41:28 PM1 votes

I also find it unnecessary and confusing. It already says the enemy team, your team.
