Very cool and normal industry
Wildlight (Highguard) lays off staff according to a LinkedIn post

"Unfortunately, along with most of the team at Wildlight, I was laid off today.

This one really stings as there was a lot of unreleased content I was really looking forward to that I and others designed for Highguard."

Fuck riot oh my lord

I've never seen a dev had the mandate of heaven to dominate an entire genre so easily and throw it all away because they are addicted to fucking over their own projects and workers.
Riot spent a decade developing a fighting game then laid off around 80 developers less than one month after release:

Last year, I successfully crowdfunded my new, original, all-ages, adventure comic series -- ENDLESS FANTASIA! It follows the adventures of Jack and Jill, as they travel across a world of reimagined fairytales and fight Wolf demons! Lots of Sonic and Kingdom Hearts vibes! It drops later this year!

Learning that everything from /pol/s creation to the current fascist attempt at a regime is not just connected but also not a coincidence sucks, man.

VERY NSFW, but we have received reports that HighGuardRule34 is now a thing on Reddit. We can't stop you from looking this up, but it's not exactly what we meant when we told you to wrest control of the shieldbreaker! LOL #PlayHighguard

With no irony team games are just
Bad by default
The mechanics in deadlock are 100% airtight and fun but you have to leave it to chance to hope your opponents passed 2nd grade and don't have a crater for a left hemisphere. I'm convinced every player's keystrokes is done by drool splattering.
