LOL: The dream come true of a Riot Games employee after three years of silent work

League of Legends has been able to succeed throughout the world and during a very long period of time. A special circumstance that has very positive side effects. Among them, a very important one stands out. Most of the developers who arrive at Riot Games do so with an excessive vocation and already very fond of the video game they are going to devote and their different elements. Working by making video games is the result of the vocation, but doing so in your favorite title makes the level of commitment increase exponentially and the most interesting stories arise.

We have already seen fans who started working after creating their own champions when they were still community artists and something similar has happened in the case of the future Aurelion Sol Rework. Robert Rosa , currently better known as Riot Kingkobra, He will be the head of a project he dreamed of for years and that began as if he were one more player. He already worked in the company when he was designing his own model, but he had to climb countless steps until he was able to get to work officially.

The Riot Games Award for the insistence of one of its workers

Robert has been working at Riot Games for five years as one of the developer's engineers in the quality department. This gave him a privilege position to convey his ideas or start projects related to the video game. However, he was not very skilled programming. After all and although he has exceptional university records, his training had been carried out in the field of civil engineering and not in computer science. A situation that forced him to put on challenges to improve and have a more important role in the developer's projects.

With that objective, Riot Kingkobra began to develop a Aurelion Sol reown more than three years for which he had no expectation. So low was the confidence that the project came to something that even shared it with the fans community of this champion. Not because he was a Riot Games employee, since he warned that he was not a champions designer and that it was not something to get to the game at any time. What he wanted, simply, was to share with the community his vision of some fun things that the character could do.

Fortunately, the theme is still alive on the Internet and we have even been able to collect the skills Robert designed for the Aurelion Sol Rework that he is now directing.

Passive *: It would be a mobility ability that, in some way, would increase its movement speed very considerably after a time walking in a straight line. He compared this spell with the current E (comet of legend), although with more freedom. Q *: Aurelion Sol remains motionless and throws fire. The flames follow the direction of the cursor and the character consumes Maná for every second he uses the ability. In addition, the affected land remains at a large temperature which somehow affects the characters. This ability can affect towers.

W *: A spell similar to R (luminous voice), but settled to become a basic ability. It would have an effect similar to the E (disperse the weak) of Syndra. E : Create a star in the target direction that fades after a few seconds. The star can be exploded with Q or W causing an explosion that stuns the enemies. R : Create a black hole in the objective location that increases in size. It works similar to an R (absolute zero) of Nunu that is launched from an objective location and not from the champion's body. Exploiting the ability makes enemies dragged towards the center.

At this point we do not know exactly how many of these skills he will have managed to take advantage of the definitive reown of the champion. However, Robert Rose's insistence and hard work has opened a new door to the developer. What began as a personal project to someday have a more protagonist in design, has become one of the most ambitious experiments in the history of League of Legends . Riot Games has not only opened the doors to work in his favorite champion. From the developer they also think that, if this goes well, many old champions can benefit from similar jobs in the future.

Aurelion Sol players are in the best hands they could have been. A fan of the champion who works in another department of Riot Games and dreamed of carrying out this work has been able to comply with his great professional ambition and has a project on which the first details have already been revealed. At that time, as he insisted, he wasn't a developer. However, he now has everything he needs to give a second life to a character who, despite everything, remains one of the favorites of the League of Legends community.
