Dreamlit Paths Design - Lillia, Sleep, and Stories

Lillia was so satisfying to make a set around. Dreams, as a theme, is very special. Both extensive and relatable, but also something deeply personal, how do you capture that in a card game?

very cool Nature paper showing that plant-based food was considerably more prevalent in some late stone age hunter-gather populations than some might have thought (sorry, Paleo!).

The last of my Vex followers, Vex's family! We collabed with Vex's writer on this!

Another idea from Meaghan! A Vex follower that was a tortured poet. -The VA also did an amazing, perfect job for this lil guy

One of my favs, Allay, an idea that came from the incredible Meaghan 🍂 We wanted to give Vex a polar opposite. My team was very generous to let me keep her literal face as a literal uwu

i joined LoR mere days after the 1 year anniversary, so this means i'm closing in on my 3rd year at Riot 😵‍💫 and what a ride it's been!
i'm grateful for what a wonderful community we have and i'm so so excited for the upcoming year. thank you all for playing ❤️

And lastly, Mr. Root! Our writer for Lillia, Nicole Smith, is a Lillia main and pitched the idea of Mr. Root to us. The voice lines for him are so funny, Nicole was such a joy to work with

I was also given the absolute honor of working on one of my favorite League characters and her followers, Lillia! 🪻

It is deeply ironic that the most meaningful class I took in my time at Emory University was about the philosophical and psychological approaches to the idea of evil, only to see videos of *this* happening not far from where we read Hannah Arendt and discussed My Lai

I can finally post stuff! Alright, starting off with my SON, Ultrasoft Poro!

I didn’t initially appreciate this, but “Boost all units” applies only good keyword stacks to your units, and only bad keyword stacks to theirs.

I figured getting “all boost”s off would mean playing around their spirited units too

(Why card grey)

Dreamlit Path Design - Vex and Gloom

So we have Spirit and a plan to create stacking keywords for all the regions. One might think since we had +1|+1 gloom obviously must have started as -1|-1. Its an obvious next step, but that wasn't where we began.

She has such a better memory than me!

This was a joint product from start to finish -- I was so lucky to have such a great design partner.

(I can't wait to find out what else we did...)

I know it’s probably just a coincidence of timing and whatnot but this expansion, the Stories especially, really do feel like a celebration of LoR as a whole

My order came in today! Really delicious! 🩷🩷🩷

sites trying to force me to use AI as an interface, or pre-writing messages to people, is honestly beyond tedious

like, I am not sure I want this once the tech is good, and it certainly is not that now for any use case i care about

🗓️ One more day until LoR’s newest expansion, Dreamlit Paths, goes live!

📝 Here’s a preview of what’s to come:
