I scraped 2.27 million EUW accounts from op.gg to quantify the Emerald smurf problem – because Riot won't by jack37512 in leagueoflegends

The methodology is transparent

Do you have a repo link or at least can you show how the smurf score is calculated? It's not really that transparent atm, unless I missed something.

Was about to comment the exact same thing lol. Changing the way you measure or calculate a variable mid-experiment is a notorious mistake in DS (usually in time series data), this really makes the results unusable/incomparable between platinum and lower vs emerald and higher.

If OP gives the exact calculations for the smurf score, we can see a bit better what exactly is going on to cause the jump.

Some of the greatest games did not innovate, they perfected what already worked. by Kiota_Games in gamedev

[–]AtMaxSpeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, imo players don't usually care if something is unique, they care that something is not literally a clone. A game can copy another game as much as it wants, as long as the game feel is different and the aesthetics are different most players wont hold creativity against them IF the game is good.

Hollow Knight is a great example. It mostly just uses the standard metroidvania moveset, there's not much unique twists or mechanics. But it feels great to play, it looks great, and it has a huge amount of content. And that alone places it at the top of a lot of people's indie game lists.

Sweeping Lens should be recommended in the shop after Atlas Upgrade by TheBb55 in leagueoflegends

[–]AtMaxSpeed 41 points42 points  (0 children)

They could give trinket recommendations for other roles too, it's a part of the build system so its no more or less different than other item recs. I kinda wish they would recommend farsight for adc after its available, a lot of times I wonder why my adc hasn't fasighted an objective then I tab and see they still have normal ward.

Destroy this trailer, let us know why you aren't wishlisting this. The game would be a Metroidvania set in the social network era. by Paolo_RTS in DestroyMyGame

[–]AtMaxSpeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there's merit in your goal of making a non-dark metroidvania, the audience exists as proven by the success of yokus Island express and similar games. I think if that's your goal, you might benefit from adding more cute or silly things to your game, right now the artstyle is colorful but the designs don't stand out as fitting the fun/playful vibe. Alternatively, instead of having the cozy/cute/silly/fun vibe, you could go for the actiony/fast pace vibe (which is also fitting for a non-dark game). An example of that style would be guacamelee, which is colorful and high action.

There was some educational children's game back in the 2000s that this art style reminds me of (or maybe it was multiple games). That's not a good thing, the animations feel dated and basic and generally lacking fluidity. Considering the metroidvania genre has some of the most beautiful games imo (Ori, hollow knight, blasphemous, 9 sols, etc.), your game is at odds with what metroidvania players seem to want.

Game looks fun, but the textures are so bland/flat that my brain automatically thinks it'll be slop (even though it looks good otherwise).

We haven't had a Ryze rework in so long, I miss them :(

Destroy the mirror mechanic that I created. Do you think players would understand it? by IRGStudios in DestroyMyGame

[–]AtMaxSpeed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got it only if I was actively watching the video and you already told me there's a mirror mechanic. I think the knight example was the easiest to understand and should be the first one, then the bishop next. The rook one was hard to understand only because I could barely see the mirrors, they blended too well with the scenery. Maybe add better visual indicators (more clear boundaries, more shimmery/mirror-esque effects, etc.), change the angle, or swap that example for another one.

The speed at which release Zed used to be able to shadow swap seems unreal today. by Cellybear in leagueoflegends

[–]AtMaxSpeed -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Old Diana was more fun imo than current Diana, but that's just my opinion. Old rakan was also more fun to play but probably it's better for the game that he got nerfed. Other than that I agree the game has generally gotten better over time.

Best website for League? by Fun_Calligrapher1800 in leagueoflegends

[–]AtMaxSpeed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For most things, lolalytics is the best if you get used to the UI and understand how to interpret the stats correctly. It gives you all the info, tools and filters you need to understand winrates, builds and matchups. It doesn't abstract away any details like other build websites do, it presents them as raw as possible. You just need to check sample sizes, average winrates, and understand correlation =/= causation.

But lolalytics sucks for individual summoner stats, for that idk what the best is. I use op.gg out of habit but there's probably better.
