so, enough time has passed now for me to talk about why i decided to leave Blizzard. a mixed year with great teammates, but a management that mistreated, lied to me, gaslit me, gave me a fake promotion, and HR that refused to help. buckle up friendos. 💪

Rioters took a break from their normal day-to-day to learn and connect during our @TFT-themed edition of Pause 2 Play! During this event, TFT newbs got IRL coaching to learn the game's fundamentals and test their skills. There were also snacks inspired by the Little Legends, an egg hunt, and more.

When the lead designer of Runeterra Reforged asked for two titans to clash on the Convergence @JimJam092, @mbarq and @sohanim8r made it happen. Read all about Baron versus T-Hex here: riot.com/3RWDHgl Oh, and @riot_Prism is there too 🤷 to talk about reception.
On the left is a portrait of Baron Nashor, on the right side is a portrait of T-Hex. They are bisected by a graphic in between both photos that says, "VS".

ATTENTION TFT COMMUNITY: We're on the verge of losing one of the best parts about the game/community. If we keep this up, Mort is going to pull back from being one of the most engaged, transparent game devs in the industry. We need to make sure that doesn't happen. 🧵
