Ooo, more in-comming features, yay! Speaking of features... how does the Champ Ban/Pick function thingy work?

The one in ESC? Its just a graphic for now but we may make it embeddable as well. We didn't expect much interest in that one outside the writers. Is it useful to everyone? useful enough for us to spend time making it workas an embed?

I've read through all your concerns about the embed with the "guides" button. I am not opposed to having the guide button invisible in guides only. Not putting in an override per-say, just the button doesn't show if you embed into a guide. It will still show if you embed into the comments on a guide, but would this be a good compromise?

Once the final part of this is revealed it will make more sense why we want it there so much. Regardless, for that piece as well I don't think it needs to be in your guide so maybe this will work.

As a side note, we were considering putting a button in the build area of a guide that says something to the effect of "find more guides with similar builds". We think this is a great tool for readers, is it going to upset the authors? I mean if they don't like your guide, they will look elsewhere anyway, we are just trying to make it easy. Thoughts?

I think its a good idea as it will help to get more builds out there then just the ones in the top 5.

Would love the Picks/Bans to be embedded, mainly because lots of "Ranked Queue" sort of threads are popping up, and I think it'd be a neat addition to the uniqueness of MobaFire tools.

As for making the Search Button invisible in guides - peeeerfect compromise. And if there will be a "Find Similar Guides" at the top of a guide, like Berzerk said, it'd be a great way to give exposure to guides that aren't in the top 5.

Loving all these ideas and additions to MobaFire :) Looking forward to the final reveal 8D

I'm sorry, what "Champ Ban/Pick function thingy" are we talking about? :S

To be honest, I hadn't figured out how to use it yet D: Which was why I was asking. But I can see it being an awesome tool.

That ... shouldn't be there :) Pretend you didn't see it. It was test code that I forgot to pull before a recent update. It will be something cool soon but for now it does nothing ;)
