League of Legends/Trivia


 * Why Fandom Can't Have Nice Things: When Riot gave people a boost to get a Corki skin and reduced it in price...the people who missed it screamed so loudly they've since been very careful about that.
 * The developers don't often post in the forums because the average post is usually about as negative as the temperature in Antarctica.
 * And most recently, a code to get a free skin for Caitlyn as well as the champion if you didn't already have her was put in the November issue of PC Gamer. A lot of people are reporting that people are going into stores and copying down codes printed in the magazine so they don't have to pay for them. Several people have predicted that they won't be doing this anymore, even though PC Gamer is combating this by having people email or call in with a proof of purchase to get another code.
 * What Could Have Been:
 * Riven was originally pitched as "Gooder than good" according to her designer Xypherous.
 * Xypherous originally intended Nautilus to have an ultimate that involved picking up an enemy champion and spinning them around him]]. It, regrettably, simply did not pan out. He also wanted Nautilus to have a base movement speed even lower than the bottom-of-the-barrel 300 Nautilus has right now, but said they wouldn't let him make it any lower.
 * Wukong's kit was originally completely different, and stated to be very complex.
 * Omen was a ranged champion concept that was shelved. Rioters elaborated on why he didn't make the cut, reasons including he was felt to be lacking personality and his visual design clashed with his gameplay.
 * Komachi was a tank champion concept by Xypherous that died once the artwork concepts happened... apparently they couldn't make the champion not cliche.
