If your favorite wizard simply wasn’t fairly zapping proper in Legends Of Runeterra, that may be as a result of they have been certainly one of 4 damaged playing cards. Rejoice, for the wizards now work: Sejauani, Lee Sin, Vi and Twisted Fate have all been patched up.
Riot have additionally taken the time to clarify their method in direction of bug fixing, which I discover succinct and agreeable. It would have been much more agreeable if these labored within the first place, however hey ho.
Here’s the Reddit post from Runeterra engineering lead “Exis”. I’ll simply pop the precise fixes right here:
- “Sejuani’s leveled up capacity ought to now all the time apply, even with start-of-round results like Citybreaker. Previously this labored generally. ‘Sometimes’ is much more irritating than ‘never.’
- “Lee Sin ought to now correctly obtain Barrier, even when he levelled up from the primary spell in a spherical. Previously this gave him double Challenger, which sounds cool however is about as helpful as a display door on a submarine.
- “Vi ought to not quickly acquire +eight assault energy throughout her level-up. Previously she would Dragon’s Rage your nexus for a staggering quantity of harm and you’d cry.
- “Twisted Fate should now be playable with a full board, like any other unit. Previously… he wasn’t.”
Exis says extra fixes will come “in Patch 1.1 next week”, and that “these are just some of the most important ones that couldn’t wait”. Yep. Those are some vital issues to un-break.
Obviously in an excellent world no game would ship with fun-ruining bugs like these, however – I don’t know for those who’ve seen – we don’t reside in an excellent world. Here’s Riot’s rationale:
“There are all the time new bugs to repair (particularly with a reside service game like LoR) and there are additionally thrilling new issues we’d wish to put our time into, so it’s actually vital we prioritise our time rigorously. We attempt to discover crucial bugs and hit these first. For occasion, a bug that provides a participant a aggressive benefit is an enormous deal. Same for a bug that provides you a foul shock since you thought one thing cool would occur and it didn’t. Or a bug that makes a Champion really feel disappointing at a second when she ought to really feel badass.
“Our goal is to find a balance between fixing stuff (to make the current experience better for you all) and putting time into new stuff (that we think you’ll love too).”
I believe that to an extent, Exis is saying apparent issues in an enthralling means that’s cleverly calculated to calm the response of offended web people. However, I additionally suppose he’s proper. Plus I’ve performed loads of games with out operating into these issues, and I’m digging the brand new playing cards.
As I mentioned last week, there’s by no means been a greater time to get into Runeterra. It’s free-to-play, and you’ll obtain it here.
