Phreak isn't working on League of Legends anymore, he's on a secret new Riot project instead
David 'Phreak' Turley has confirmed that he's no longer working as a game designer on League of Legends .

The 26.07 patch rundown will be his last video "for a while," then, which some will lament, but others will no doubt rejoice over.
