Why redesign the client. They know you losers are still gonna play the game regardless.

[Matiasfv]

this looks insane, you might even say it's too much for this small indie company known as riot games.

[Ravlol]

This is cool and all, but how does it increase lux skin sales?

[leozack]

No way this aint got like 1 million views or smt like that that's actually insane and pretty simple to understand design. Good Work bro

[mariag]

Love the design you did. Only critique I have is that with a pre game screen like that, splash arts aren't getting enough love.

[immortalspear]

The fact that a single person can make such an insane client, but a whole ass company can't turn the map white is insane

[thescarecrow]

Amazing design but would probably be a backend nightmare lmao

[thenumber-osbc]

somebody hire this guy, he literally outsmarting riots game

[mrwater]

I like almost all of the changes except for the loading screen because the splash arts aren't as visible as they are now

[siahbillz]

Minus the dreads you are exactly what I expect every lulu player looks like

[ThahnG]

Damn bro, that client redesign looks insane!!! Unfortunately, the best Riot can offer you for your design is $2; small indie companies are really struggling out here.

[katcirce]

I like this! The only thing though, is that the new pre-game screen doesn't show the splash-arts very well - which I really like. I like seeing the splash of my own skin :)

Cool graphics, although the problem with league client is not so much UI design but rather the bugs, glitches, server issues and such - which you kind of address but I don't know why design change would actually solve the lag and such. If anything, having every process from home screen, champ select, and loading screen all try to run on one thing like you're trying to achieve could actually create more complex problems in the coding. Also, having the client as a window also helps players multi task with stuff while in queue and champ select. Making friends list collapsible discourages interaction, and those who want to play with their friends has no incentive to ever close it - I'd rather just have it on the side available at all times. The new pregame screen hides the splash art that gives characters and their skins a certain charm. Obv this was a short project and what you can really perfect in the time you had as one person is obviously not going to be perfect and views are subjective.

Nice effort overall and entertaining video

idk but its like a mobile version with a twist of mobile legends.

Some criticism:

I'd say this is an example of creating UI without UX in mind, but the UI itself wasn't so hot either. In the process of cutting and compressing everything, you've created a ton of unused space which is a huge no no in this field. Even with the chat box and friends list overlay open, half (if not more) of the client is completely empty, just a background. The client background is not UI, even if its dynamic, so you shouldn't treat it as such. I strongly recommend exclusively designing UI without a background, as the only thing that should be influencing your UI is a grid.

I can't say any of these scenes are anywhere near as good as the original scenes, especially the champ select, loading, and post game scenes. However the quality of your effort and presentation is high, which I appreciate, so keep it up.

This looks amazing! I wish Riot would reach out to you and take this into account if/when they're going to give the client a makeover!

[hughienewind]

To be honest, a few things about the Client I actually prefer more, like the chat and waiting screen. It doesn't always have to be simplified

[totalwasteofmytimee]

Really cool redesign and fantastic video overall. It's criminal how under the radar your content currently is, your work deserves way more recognition!

[koryugi]

You did! You made it less practical and minimalist than it already is. Great job🎉

[pingeto]

Really good, but i think it's better if you keep the client to a window and the "accept match" popup to be on the center of the screen like now. Fullscreen is nice but a window is more convenient and easier to access. Also the victory screen is a bit empty, maybe adding some cool graphs or stats could be nice.
