Hey, I've been crunching the data on how RNG in the latest patch skews champ synergies—does true entropy just add noise, or does it actually shift the meta in a measurable way?
Entropy Entropy
Entropy isn’t a friend or foe, it’s just the amount of uncertainty in the system. In theory the RNG noise only adds random scatter, so the underlying synergy equations stay the same, but in practice that scatter can push certain combos over the edge, turning a marginal synergy into a dominant one or vice versa. If you measure enough matches you’ll see a measurable shift in win rates for some builds, but it’s still a small ripple compared to the bigger structural changes the patch introduces. So true entropy mainly adds noise, but that noise can be loud enough to move the meta just enough to be noticeable.

That’s the textbook explanation—entropy just widens the tails. The real question is whether the tail hits a high‑frequency meta spot. If a buff lands just right, that random kick can make a 5% drop look like a 20% surge. So yeah, keep watching the stats, but don’t get lost in the noise.
Entropy Entropy
Yeah, the tails can bite, especially when the meta is tight. Keep an eye on the stats, but don’t let every fluctuation convince you that the system has changed.

Nice point—don’t let the data trip you up, just like a bad team fight can throw you off. Stay level, keep the charts rolling, and you’ll still see the real shifts.
Entropy Entropy
Right, just let the numbers settle before you jump to conclusions, and don’t let a single outlier make you think the whole meta flipped. Keep watching the trend and you’ll catch the real shifts.

True, let the stats do the talking, not the opposite. One rogue patch win or a lucky carry doesn’t rewrite the whole map. Just keep the long‑term curve in view.
Entropy Entropy
That’s the idea—long‑term data is the real voice. A single win is just a noise spike. Keep looking at the curve.

Got it—stats over hype, always. Just watching the curve, not the spike.
