He’s arguably the most controversial content creator in League of Legends history, but since his rocky beginnings, Tyler1 has managed to redeem himself, “reform” himself, and eventually become one of the community’s leading figures. North American. Admittedly, the streamer continues to have acid opinions about the state of the game to which he devotes countless hours. Even if it claims to be reformed, off-roading is not uncommon, and this one could even be justified sinceafter being the victim of an AFK mate, and not having been able to remake the game… he suffered a penalty from Riot Games.
Trolled by an AFK then sanctioned by Riot Games
We all know them, the famous players who do not leave the fountain. Most of the time, this only makes us lose time and no LP since for years, the remake function has been available and therefore allows us to avoid an almost certain loose. That’s what Tyler1 faced, except… His mate, a Nunu jungle (without smite), never left the fountain, probably after realizing he didn’t have the good summoner spell. Logically, the streamer and the rest of his teammates thought they could cancel the game at the third minute of the game, except that the option was not available. The problem is that they had started to do anything, thinking that the game was going to be canceled.
Realizing that the game was going to last at least until the 15th minute and that he was going to lose, the streamer went into a mad rage and notably massacred his innocent keyboard. But the story does not end there. Not wanting to play anymore, Tyler1 stayed at the fountain… and received a penalty for AFK impacting his LP for his next ranked.
If we can condemn the outburst of the streamer and the names of birds that fly galore, we can understand his anger since none of us would like to find ourselves in this situation. When we know that the remake vote is going to happen, we flash, we give ourselves to the opponent for free since it no longer has any importance.
Here is exactly the rule that governs the remake command according to the official Riot Games support site: “The /remake command becomes available at 3:00 if a player is disconnected or marked as inactive for 90 seconds. If a team manages to get First Blood before a player disconnects/remains inactive, the command vote /remake will no longer be available.”. However, in this situation, the player NEVER left the base, Tyler1 therefore legitimately thought that he could do anything and start the vote at the third minute of the game… something that neither he nor his mates could not do.
Soon an improvement of the system
The story was shared on Reddit and, whether we like the character or not, many found the situation totally unfair — and started blaming Riot Games’ system. “I don’t think players can trust Riot to fix these things. Obviously you’re not in charge of everything, but Riot made it look 100% like they don’t care. not League of Legends players at all [ndlr : en comparaison avec les autres jeux du studio], if not as a tool to sell skins. We were lied to again and again about the behavior systems, the client, the ladder changes. […] Another point of frustration that many feel is that it takes things like this to get so much attention on Reddit to get any interest in it.” commented a player, who in a way was right since a studio employee in the person of Riot Auberaun answered him.
“It’s reasonable, trust needs to be earned, which is what we’re going to strive for as we continue our work here. It’s a pretty specific commitment, so it should be pretty clear whether that happens or not. . I can’t promise a specific timeframe at this time other than it won’t be the next patch, but timer work [ndlr : de la fonction remake] was already scheduledand we’ll be looking to do the extra work to make sure this feature is resilient.”
In short, the studio admits that there is a problem with detecting AFKs at the start of the game and is even currently working on it in order to, in particular, improve the Remake function. The goal would even be to advance the timer when the absence of a player reasonably begins to have an impact on the game., according to Riot Auberaun. Good news in itself, but that we learn at the expense of the gaming experience of some members of the community.
esport-lol
Decidedly the night will not have been easy for the European structures. Fnatic’s AD carry could miss the League of Legends World Championships for the second year in a row. Hylissang is also concerned, in order to add a little salt to a gaping wound.
