While their external justification is "get everyone to ward!", the real reason for the ward change is to reduce vision in general -- there was way too much of it at top levels.

And Riot's design philosophy is entirely against "trollable" mechanics so a team-wide limit on wards doesn't work, so they have to do per-player.


By the way, not sure if this has been discussed yet, but did anyone notice in the s4 preseason preview video how they changed a bunch of bushes? The top/bot lane bushes are 3 segments instead of 2, the "banana bush" is much shorter (and much less banana", and the bush next to blue doesn't wrap around the corner anymore. Wonder what effects those will have...

... + also it seems the super minion spawns in front of the wave instead of behind it now. huh.

They didn't acknowledge wanting to reduce vision either, even when it was pointed out to them ("You can't force other people to buy wards, so you just make people who want to play the vision game be at their teammates' mercy, worsening "their experience" you so often talk about, and generally reducing vision—but you never said that was intended, is it another goal of the changes?").

I'd be fine with the changes, personally, if Riot straight-up admitted in their opening posts summing up the changes that they, indeed, intended to reduce vision. But they never said it, and they ignored all the posts asking for clarifications. That's a pretty big gripe of mine against their communication.

I don't really care about their communication. I spend approximately a zillionth as much time communicating with them as I do playing, and I hardly have time to play anymore. I can't imagine being so invested that their wording seriously concerns me.

they dont intend necessarily to reduce vision, just having supports as only buy ward bots is just lame as fuck

there is a vocal minority here imo that likes buying shittons of wards but most people dont want to

Pretty sure reducing the amount of vision was on of their goals whether or not they stated it.

questions: so ranked queues are up again but season 3 is over and it's not preseason yet.

Does my MMR still get affected by playing ranked? And what do you call this "period" in between seasons 3 and preseason 4?

and what happens to my LP

We're currently in preseason, despite Ranked position and LP not meaning anything. Regardless, MMR is still being calculated per game, so technically it does matter if you win/lose ranked games.

Has our ELO already been soft resetted? or is that when season 4 starts?

Shouldn't that be at the start of season 4, before you get your placement matches? Because I only did -19 +16 in my last 2 games, which is way too high considering I'm in Plat V and as such should have an Elo drop after the reset.

Note that only top lane is 3 brush and bottom is still 2. Unless they changed it from what's on PBE. I think this is to make top harder to gank while keeping botlane the same (since it's much easier to gank top on live ).

Ranked position and LP still mean what they always have (nothing or something depending on how you think). Just your border isn't going to change if you change Tiers.

Difference between preseason and Season is pretty overhyped. My MMR still changes, my LP still changes. Seems like the same shit to me lol. I guess I'm a salty Diamond player with no chance at Challenger so changing Tiers wasn't really an option, but it's pretty much da same as the old season.
