Your whole game, not just the clip

Desktop app

Available in v1.7.0

It's finally here: The Replay! A feature the community had asked for and we had promised you for a long time now. A little sneak peek was already included in the "Coming Next" for patch 1.6.0, yet we had already worked on the feature long before that. We know it took its time...

But it's finally here!

Before, the app only kept the last two minutes: either you hit the hotkey at the right time, or your penta never existed. Now it keeps the whole game, and you cut whatever you want out of it, whenever you want.

Recording a whole game

In the settings, recording has three positions: Off, Clips (as before) or Whole game.

Off, Clips, or the whole game.

On "Whole game", the match is recorded from start to finish. When it ends, the video shows up in your library with its thumbnail. The clip hotkey keeps working the whole time.

The default is 1080p30, which is about 3.9 GB for a 45 minute game. The app keeps 3 games or 50 GB at most, then deletes the oldest. All of it is adjustable.

Your best moments: highlighted for you!

The app now analyses your games automatically in the background, and shows you exactly where you did something clip-worthy: First Blood, Triple Kill, Quadra, Penta, Ace, Baron stolen, Dragon stolen... all your best of the best!

It gives them back to you two ways:

• In the replay, as suggested clips. You preview, you adjust the start and the end, you keep it.
• During the game, with auto clip: moments are clipped on their own while you play. It is off by default, and you turn it on in the settings (the six most interesting moments are already ticked).

You tick what saves a clip, and how much play to keep around it.

A moment you have already clipped is not offered again.

The player

The replay opens with your moments listed next to the video. One click and you are there.

Your moments beside the video, in game order.

Under the video is a timeline with your APM* and every event of the game. You can show only your own, change the playback speed, and cut a clip from a suggested moment or from the exact spot where you paused.

Every event of the game on the timeline, filterable.

* APM is still in testing, and is only measured on Summoner's Rift for now: Ranked, Swiftplay, Flex and the other Rift queues. More game modes to come.

The volume you set is remembered for next time.

One library

Clips and full games now live on the same page, Recordings. Filters by type, date and length, renaming, and a gauge showing how much disk is taken.

Clips and full games, in the same grid.

Star a recording and it is never deleted automatically, even when the app makes room.

You can also start and stop recording from that page, and the dashboard shows your last recorded game.

Your last game, right on the dashboard.
