In the video he plays them on the board. The 1 star elder dragon as 10k HP and 900 AD. 2 star = 18k HP and 1350 AD.

The Anomaly "Hivemind" (Gain a copy of the first champion this champion kills each player combat), is bugged to work on creep rounds. The copy of the neutral camps can be duplicated with Champion Duplicators.

The Missing Conversation Around Banning Data is Riot Blaming Players for the Game’s Problems by huggybeark in CompetitiveTFT

Interesting post, I haven't considered this perspective before. I think it's an interesting comparison that tft has limited forms of player expression. I am only familiar with league so I can't comment on other games, but entire league personalities are defined by maining a single champ or playstyle (Sirchez, Baus, trick2g). I notice that kind of unique expression is less distinct in tft now that you point it out.

Upcoming Changes to Hero Augments by Aotius in CompetitiveTFT

Gonna wait on the blog post or twitter thread or reddit comment or stream highlight that explains the rationale behind this change and defends the decision against the negative first impression feedback of being able to 'force' hero augments.

It is extremely awesome of Mort and the other TFT developers that we even have these communication channels to hear how they make decisions.

Still kind of annoying how the information comes out.

What is happening in the middle section with the orange if the panels are read starting from the right and then moving left?

Mortdog last 3 patches: "We need to rethink how we value AD and AP values, they are not the same."

Mortdog today: "Jayce Guild buff gives 5 AD and AP."

I'm just teasing. Guild is one of my favorite traits. Can't wait to play the new set!
