If RIOT is redrawing the champions, shouldn't they update the spotlights too?

I have some friends that are starting to play now and they were watching some spotlights. Half an hour later, they came with tons of questions. "Where's this item?" or "I've never seen this champion doing this."

Some champions like Sona have changed a lot. In Sona's spotlight, her passive is still the old one and there is an item that doesn't exist anymore: Innervating Locket.

Shouldn't RIOT update the spotlights?

it might be on their list but they do have a ton of work to do, what with new champions, skins, patches, new spotlights, etc..

^who said so?

also, I doubt champion spotlights are anywhere near the top of their to do list, I mean they haven't even finished making them for all the characters, why would they start changing the ones they have now?

Champion spotlights aren't "this is what this character does" it's "this is a new character, look at how cool it is.

Yep, exactly.

It's release info on how the champion works. That's pretty much everything the spotlight should be used for...


And if your friends are seeing stuff on how to build champs, guide 'em here :P

Of course they are checking things here, Mobafire is a must.

I think the spotlights are pretty helpful. They explain the skills well if you still havent understood what they do.

The builds on old champions weren't even good anyway. Riot makes decent builds but they're usually not optimal at all - there's always some weirdness. But the recent ones (ever since around Lee Sin) have been MUCH more competitively viable.

If you want builds though, tell your friends to come here. ;)

Yea, what everyone said.

Also, I love all the people that QQ about no magma chamber yet.

It's a new ****ing MAP!

MAP!

It is one thing to make a new champ; they take months to make art, skills, etc for champs to make them work with the meta and be balanced which they generally do a good job of...

Maps take even that much longer...not only does everything have to be perfectly balanced, but there will be teleporters on the map, a whole new jungle, new lanes, EVERYTHING! It needs to be worked on A LOT and go through EXTENSIVE testing before releasing...you can't just POP out a map.

And yes, it is going to be coming out soon...

Thanks to TRUeLM, Plastictree, Scrax, Xiaowiriamu, foggy12, JahGFX, jhoijhoi, msrobinson, JEFFY40HANDS, Nyoike, MissMaw, and me :) for the sigs!

1: Kayle Spotlight is up (her new look and slight revamp)
2: Magma Fields or Chamber whatever

It was revealed LAST YEAR....The fact that spectator mode will make a debut before the new map is rather disappointing. Why? New map NEW ****ING META. That's the reality of it, finishing seaon 1 they can finally unveil their new map. Probably sometime around the end of this year, with it will come a new meta. And then TF's nerf will be undone XD
