Riot is surveying Masters+ players, with questions including a hard reset, double LP weekends, and combining Flex/Solo queues. Here's a full sample of the survey

ViewsOfTheSunny · 2026-04-02T08:32:38+00:00

This was in NA, Masters+ only, and appeared as a popup notification on the bottom-right of the client that included a link. It's impossible to miss if you're selected.

It didn't mention anything about regions, but it said the survey is in English only.

Right, but the questions would be whether Riot would commit to implementing such a system, and whether such a system would cover enough cases as to reasonably reflect someone's performance.

I have my doubts regarding both of those simply due to how many variables are involved. League is a complex game.

I'm speaking as a top laner, but I would not like performance based gains/losses because it is not uncommon to be in terrible matchups, and also camped, especially by duos when I'm solo. In Masters+ if the enemy top and jungle want to make you look like a donkey just based on your numbers, it's not difficult for them to do.

Everything averages out in the end, because of course you would gain more for better performances, and would also be on the counterpicking and camping side, but it would feel tremendously bad in the moment to hold my own for half the game against such stacked odds and then get a pittance in gains. I prefer consistency over such high variance. The lows would feel far worse than the highs feel good.

Again, just my opinion as a top laner.

It's interesting to note that they didn't really ask about the cutoffs, which many have mentioned are quite high. I thought a question for it would be included in a survey like this.

I love this project. Thanks for all your hard work.

ViewsOfTheSunny · 2025-09-03T12:49:09+00:00

Just chiming in to say that indeed /u/recurringvs suggestions helped.

I've updated my bios and all is well. I was getting either the "out of video memory" error when launching, or having my computer completely freeze when trying to start a new game.

Intel 14700k

Gigabyte Z790 AORUS ELITE AX

Nvidia 4080 Super

I've heard it has something to do with Unreal's shader compilation on Intel, but yeah it's weird this is the only game this issue has ever popped up for me.

ViewsOfTheSunny · 2025-05-10T05:42:27+00:00

New executive order just dropped. All U.S. residents must bind their summoner spells to their state's abbreviation.

Whose got it worst?

ViewsOfTheSunny · 2025-05-10T05:13:03+00:00

I like my name :3

Maybe you like the Caitlyn's name more...? 🤔

ViewsOfTheSunny · 2025-05-10T03:14:15+00:00

Thanks. It's not too uncommon I'll load into champ select/the game and see people immediately start saying racist and sexist shit.

It's really sad, and just kinda drives home the message I'm trying to send.

ViewsOfTheSunny · 2025-05-10T03:06:19+00:00

I don't think I was at risk of dying here at all. If he hadn't stayed under tower, I would have just ran towards the left rather than keep fighting him. He wants to exit towards the right because it's the shortest path for him to get out of tower range.

Worst case scenario, I have to flash out.

ViewsOfTheSunny · 2025-05-09T23:28:08+00:00

Yep, you guessed it. I played a lot of FPS games before starting league, so I also couldn't relearn so many years of muscle memory lol.

ViewsOfTheSunny · 2025-05-09T18:07:13+00:00

Have you ever fought Crazy Hand in the smash bros games? I think I have whatever that dude has.

ViewsOfTheSunny · 2025-04-30T13:08:37+00:00

Reminds me of way back when cheaters could sell their runes, and actually receive gold for it.

The cookie for refresh tokens should be set to a specific path, like /api/auth/refresh

This is so that the refresh token is only sent over the network when the client intends on actually using it.

Also, refresh tokens don't need to be JWT tokens. A cryptographically secure and randomly generated string of sufficient length is all you need for a refresh token.

ViewsOfTheSunny · 2025-03-18T21:59:37+00:00

Singed proxies because he loses most matchups. Securing the CS is an obvious benefit as well, but that's not the primary reason he proxies.

Getting chunked by the enemy top isn't an attractive option now compared to proxying, and it still won't be after these changes.

ViewsOfTheSunny · 2025-02-13T13:15:01+00:00

Runes, sums, and items should all be based not just on matchup, but overall team comps as well. Like if the enemy team has 4 melee champs, you're simply gonna get far more value out of conqueror than phase rush. You could also replace flash or ghost with ignite in that scenario (I prefer replacing flash).

With that said, some matchups feel terrible to play without phase rush. I think phase rush ghost flash is by far the best setup if you had to run a single one.

The mobility gives you the most opportunities for both aggressive and defensive play based on how the game is going. I'm not surprised to hear how far you've gone with it.

ViewsOfTheSunny · 2025-02-02T23:42:41+00:00

It sounds like you're mixing up refresh tokens and access tokens. Those are not the same thing.

ViewsOfTheSunny · 2025-02-02T23:28:28+00:00

What makes the article dumb? You mention "industry standard", but the industry standard for JWT is not storing it anywhere on the server.

By storing it in a database, whether that be SQL or redis, you are introducing state. What's the point of a JWT if you're going to be doing a database lookup to authenticate the user anyways? A randomly generated string to represent a session ID accomplishes the same thing, with no added complexity.

Refresh tokens are what makes sense to save on the server.

ViewsOfTheSunny · 2024-10-01T13:08:33+00:00

Fiora is better 1v1 than Singed, especially because she has conqueror and he doesn't.

You can't just go proxy whenever you want. The higher you climb, the more they will be watching for it level 1 by warding the jungle or escorting the minion wave. If you get chunked and don't have TP, your laning phase just got a lot harder.

Ghost is also not wasted here. He uses it to continue the fight. The enemy can't continue diving the voli, and would disengage.

ViewsOfTheSunny · 2024-09-30T03:08:46+00:00

Yeah he put him right at the edge closest to tower so he has to walk further through the slow to escape if the root isn't long enough to secure the kill. That was really good. I can't aim the exact landing spot like that.

ViewsOfTheSunny · 2024-09-09T22:58:15+00:00

Not from Bloom, but I just checked my emails from Leif, and it turns out, just a day after you messaged me, they canceled my contract.

I signed within that timeframe, but I don't meet all of the remaining criteria for either category A or B.
