I’ve added new Player and Team search boxes in the site header to make it quicker and easier to access the profile pages for the players and teams you want to learn about.
I know the Blog search box has been misleading at times, since people gloss over the “Search Blog” text inside it and just assume it will do a global search of some sort. Making a single box do a global search for different kinds of objects would be cool, but would require building a new, combined results page of some sort, which I just don’t have time for at the moment.
I hope this helps! Feedback is always welcome via Discord or Twitter.
I’ve (finally) added Void Grub data! You’ll see it in Team Stats as GRB% (grub control), and it will also show up in the downloadable CSVs going forward, right after the Rift Herald numbers.
I’ve also added 5 new fields to the CSV for picks 1 through 5, following the ban fields. The picks are listed in the order they were made for the team represented in that row.
These new columns are likely to be breaking changes if you have any code that processes the CSVs based on column numbers, so be warned that you’ll need to make some adjustments there.
