Feats seem odd and kind of hard to read as is.
Meaning not sure what the feat name is and what the feat does, a great example of this is Dreamscape Walk feat. Where the name and description seem to run together.

#

Maybe make it tabbed in for each rarity with the bullets down below.
Also gets skewed a bit the way it currently is.

#

Something maybe like
Feats
Uncommon

  • Selflessness: Increases the damage of all Champions by 10%
  • Explorer of Nightmares: Increases the effect of Voronika's Puppet Master ability by 20%

Rare

  • Inspiring Leader: Increases the damage of all Champions by 25%

PS: Which I get might not look any better in Discord, but we only have so much width and you have three times what is being used.

huh? The feat names are bold, so i don't see how it would be hard to tell what the name is, and what the effect is

#

The feat names are in bold and there's a line break. Also curious of what you mean by "run together".

vital dune
#

Yes bold but in some cases the next word looks like the same sentance

#

It seems a bit crowded horizontally, to me. When I doubt going the other direction would take all that much more room vertically.

#

Slight mod that is more readable to me
Code wise: Only added "flex-direction column;". Which means "flex: 1;" can be dropped from the sub divs. Or could just remove the "display: flexl:"

It reads that way to me in the tight columns

#

Due to some words go all the way to the end of the line

granite carbon
#

Even though it does, it's still a grammatically correct sentence with graspable context.

vital dune
#

I am saying it is not always graspable context

granite carbon
#

In what cases is it not?

vital dune
#

This looks like one run on sentance to me

granite carbon
#

Even if that was one sentence it wouldn't be a run-on

#

And there's sufficient context there to understand what it means.

vital dune
#

Maybe bad grammar to explain the issue I have with it.

But even the point that some one is willing to fight against the way it looks is a possible reason to change how it looks.

granite carbon
#

But one person complaining is not necessarily a strong reason to change something that there aren't problems with.

The only real problem with the format, if anything, is that the three column design looks cramped and ugly, which is not a major issue.

vital dune
#

I do think it is cramped which makes it hard to read

#

It would also be less code to make it where it is not

granite carbon
#

Is the font too small then?

#

Or is there not enough space between the text for each feat?

vital dune
#

Font size can be changed by zoom

granite carbon
#

So that's not the issue.

vital dune
#

Comparable on font size since looking at discord in the above image

#

It is cramped to me which makes it hard for me to really see the boldness, feat name vs what explains the feat.

#

I get when I focus most of my attention then I can, but there is a game to play and other things to do.

granite carbon
#

And you don't think there's sufficient context to understand what's the title and what's the effect even without the bold?

vital dune
#

One line break does not in the case when the words of the important thing can go to the end of line
Now maybe if it was more than a 1.2/1.3 line-height or whatever the default is in browsers.

#

Another <br> would be enough, but most likely to much

granite carbon
#

But even if it were presented as one sentence without anything to distinguish the title from the body, do you think there isn't enough context to tell what's the name of the feat and what's the effect?

vital dune
#

It is not just effects but stuff like this. Yes if reading the whole thing (which most will not) it is easy to see the ".", but if you guick glance it the "." vanishes and the bold is just not enough

#

is that italicized as well?
Yup and I did not even see that till after posting the image

#

Maybe something like this were the font-weight is a bit higher
Since it seems like the bold is only a 600, which the default for most fonts is 500

#

But again would add of space between Feat, Description and Unlock

granite carbon
#

There are a million different ways you could tweak the formatting. The question is whether any of them are necessary. This is a blog post that a lot of people don't need, presenting information that has little impact (the feats specifically) and that will soon be available in game. Is making it look nicer really important?

vital dune
#

Not talking about just for Voronika but for all Blog Post that get created in the future
Do not even care if Voronika's is changed

granite carbon
#

I maintain my previous statement

vital dune
#

I walking away I will let CNE decide if they want to do anything.
Even though my stuff still stands

#

The whole thing is I am having issues seeing it, yes might not be super important in the grand scope but can be minor tweaks to the template that is used to make it more legible.

#

tbh that whole site they post their blogposts on needs tweaking to not look like it comes straight out the stoneage

vital dune
#

100% but little by little

#

I fully understand they are using an template.html page that they are just updating by hand every time a new blog comes out. Or are copying the previous blog, which is why some champs have had previous champs info day 1 of the blog.

vital dune
#

Or maybe they are not using pure html, since this is the headers on their /home page

#

When the title on their home page most likely should be something like "Code Name Entertainment"
