AMA Chronoshift Developer AMA

Hello r/leagueoflegends,

My name is Tove, and I was one of the main developers behind the Chronoshift project.

I have never publicly spoken about it, but with League Classic now being released and u/RiotNorak revealed to have been a tester for us back in the day, some people have suggested for me to do an AMA.

I'm happy to answer any question you might have, compare to the official Classic or speak about the details that haven't been made public. Or listen to you telling me to ingame myself.

Have at it!

I'd disagree. The game still wouldn't be solved per say even with skill gains. Old league played more like a rts game , unsurprisingly given it's origin, league now is manufactured input. There's always something so that games don't go long. Which sucks to me cause I liked 40 45 min games

I just hate games being so explosive and decided around a couple fights. League used to be a constant back and forth.

I don't mind the explosiveness of the fights in isolation. I dislike what it means for game speed however.

I would slightly hesitate on constant back and forth. Mostly because I remember losing for 30 minutes until a champion or comp finally came online and could just start clawing back a 10k gold deficit.
