every four digit number probably has some "significance" to a few random numerologists online

Yeah for sure. I only checked the 2210 because the original record was such an interesting result. It might aswell just be someone's favourite number or just completely random timer.

friendly reminder the Disconnect strat still work in Live Swarm, I launched a swarm game yesterday and left to bring water, which led to other events and made me forget about the game, I came back to find my Team still fighting Aatrox, they all died multiple times, matter of a fact, we all died more than we could count, but since I was afk, the Game over message did not appear for any of us

[@Leozinhozd]

[@OathBlivion15]

3:14 max game length PBE = Pi. Live servers, 22:10 max game length, angel number! What does this mean? Riot's next champ will be Angel themed with a pie, or maybe even a pizza pie, as a weapon or part of the kit. All planned and hinted by Riot! And this new champ will be named, Shawarma!

It makes sense that they added a cap. If you get full build, plus the augement where minions drop gold, and the one where gold heals you, you're practically immortal

[@Frightning]

perfect question for the next AMA with anyone from riot. :D

[@nicholasjones7822]

maybe the pi number is just symbolic because it goes on forever and the dev is recognizing that if you got that far you could go forever. I would guess that the angel number is also symbolic as it is about encouraging you to take action and that you didn't take enough action before the time limit as the boss was still alive.

[@ParrotParrot]

This could be related to one of the newer failsafes possibly in place to avoid crashing games due to memory bounds, the game will terminate in the default state when it reaches an allocated memory threshold instead of continuing to chug along until it throws an OOM panic

[@railgun1258]

Almost every number you google will be an angel number

[@ChesterZirawin]

The soft lock still happens but on Briar after you use her E ability. I don't know specifically how/why it bugs out, but the only way to get out of it is to ult and instantly re cast to end it early.

[@GSenna37]

Strange, I once bugged out of Rek'Sai's arena on the first map, and the game automatically gave me a loss after some time of farming Edit: It was live servers, this week Edit 2 : Oh, I've just seen the full video, oops

[@philipecosta7026]

happened to me too

[@hashinemiretsien9920]

This happened to me during the first day of the mode, we were in Rek'Sai's arena and I was left out, my damage couldn't reach as it was pretty far and my friend was Leona so he could kill her but would take forever, after like 5-10 mins of the fight Rek'Sai just imploded and we won

[@nestorasbitos3623]

Now the reaper will spawn from vampire survivors to end the run 😂

[@barkeeperandnotyourpsychol6389]

Yea, I found the live server cap as well and was a little disappointed. Because learning about the possibility to recall in this game I wanted to use that as an exploit to farm money afk by grabbing death and taxes so the mobs drop money and recalling out of the rek'sai arena and just stand there for eternity, but due to the time cap it sadly didn't work :'D

[@YezzyxDD]

Riot saying "stop standing around and do something" via an angel number is wild. "Take action"

[@kevinf10000]

Could it be possible that the insta kill existed in PBE, but due to being unable to take damage it didn't kill her?

[@Vandiril]

No - not really. I did many different tests with different methods (without AFKs too) and games definitely lasted longer. Good question though!

[@PlaceOfDestination]

Riot discovers math

[@spyofgame200]

You could do that without any exploit, using only AURORA. When you use E and R (flying) at the EXACT time the boss (Belveth) appear AND picking up the card, you may glitched out (due to flying with R and unaffected by E) and can never go into the zone. The boss can only damage you if you go to the near border. This also work if you have friends or play with random people. It happened to me twice yesterday.

[@cosmickitteh]

The amount of tokens I could have if this was still possible. . . Truely a depressing moment

[@daleryanaldover6545]

As a dev, I can totally relate. I also like putting easter eggs on some features I do. It doesn't matter if it's discovered or not I just want my shit to be there 😂

[@velconx15]

Vincent Kozman must have entered Riot HQ and made the time limit

[@streichholzgangster8023]

I got another bug at the Rek'sai map. If you die, bevor you get pulled inside to her, then you wont be able to join the fight again. As pur carry died, we didnt have enough dmg to kill her portal. In around 30minutes, our tanks were able to kill it with our passive dmg. Rek sai died instantly. Could it be that the angle number only applies if she is able to take dmg? As she cant get dmg, while her portal stands, it could be a possibility to break your record.

[@streichholzgangster8023]

Another bug that appeared yesterday: We tried to start a game as 4 Illaois. We couldn't load the game. After that we weren't able to play as 4 anymore. We tried to start games solo and duo and it worked, but we couldn't as 4. Meanwhile others were able, so it wasn't a general problem. We tried 5 times with different champions.

[@XxOsirisxX]

Nah, I left Rek'Sai's arena intentionally (Just use Seraphine E or Xayah R and run to the nearest exit) and left 3 other randoms fighting her... but since they all (2 Jinx, 1 Leona) had pretty bad damage, they keep on dying and doing poor damage... after the time limit, we all lost because they couldn't kill her on time.

[@huskyhd693]

You can also bug the game especially in reksai map when she is pulling u into the pit for the boss fight spam your dash or your movement buttons and boom, you are soft lock and u can extended the game indefinitely as u can’t do anything to reksai.

[@gabriellopezfernandez2446]

There is another bug, you can use Xayah R to dodge atrox chaining you to the monolith and since he is invulnerable. It happened to me yesterday

[@DestinySBL]

Ah man I didn't even think about trying for the longest game possible, there was a moment where I played Jinx and had full movespeed build(~3000 movespeed on passive proc), and I bugged the Rek'Sai fight by somehow? running through the wall and never being able to come back into the fight. I kinda just sat there for half an hour freely, as the enemy waves stopped scaling in power. If you could somehow replicate this, you could also get another easy longest game.

[@kaothe9708]

I have something to add: At the first day on normal client when swarm came out our very first round when we made it to reksai, something wasnt quite right. We played with three people, one of us died before the timer hit 15...and didnt get spawned into the circle with reksai and us. We got perma spwankilled and our mate outside could just walk and clear the outside. There where significant lower spawn rates so he couldnt really die. (Somehow he still managed it after 45+ min). Is this known?

I played an Aatrox Hardmode game as leona, which gave me a 25:55 min game as i died. (It didnt seem like a game-ending oneshot and rather unfortunate chainpull into a sword/meteor) So I assume the Aatrox fight allows for longer Times as he has 2 phases.

Oh so Aatrox map allows for longer games - I didn't think of it - thanks for sharing!

I haven't tried to reproduce but here's what happened: I Was Seraphine on extreme on the first map. I tried to shield and run out of the ring of enemies and died on them. The other player revives me and I immediately die again from the same enemy (I don't even see myself come back for a fraction of a second it was like no frames). I get revived again (this time, the ring is gone), and it works, but there's another revive thing left behind. I"m not sure, but I think it was also denying the quicker revive on the second attempt and made me wait the full timer (not completely sure). Anyone else get this or reproduce it? tl dr: Had an extra fake revive circle stuck on the map.
