the new UI is broken

The graphics are a mess. Before sometimes the alpha layers were flutter a little causing icons to blink in and out of existence rapidly like it's trying to set off an epileptic, but not those issues are all over the scream and sometimes just the whole damn screen and icons will flutter in and out of side in the middle of the screen not even where they are meant to be and i can to alt-tab in and out of the game to clear them. On a feedback not, the new hud is ok, it's different, less stylished and very very boring and bland but takes up a lot less room, and that's fine for tournaments but the game loses a bit of it's identity. The pirate music and announcer I LOATH I want the sea shanty music to stop badly I hate it hate it hate it. And the pirate announcer would be fine as part of a MF or GP skin but for be running around as a mystical being and hearing sea shantys and hearing pirates voices while running though a grass field just sounds dumb. The normal announcer fits in a tournament or dueling setting which fits the LoL mindset, this pirate crap feels jarringly out of place. So please, a graphics patch and a way to turn off the pirate BS would be great.

I lazily cut and pasted my bug report I sent but my feelings are there. The new UI is ok but bland and boring, the new music I hate and the pirate announcer belongs in a MJ or GP skin not for me to want to gouge out my ears through while playing as someone like Yi or Fiora, playing as them and hearing pirate music just feels DUMB and vastly out of place and ruins some of the mindset and experience. SO please, I'm going to dig for a way to stop that music and change the hud inside the game.

The whole UI Hud is ugly. I want it reverted back or an option to use the classic UI Hud. This is absolutely terrible. The FPS and ping blends into the gameplay so its hard to see. The character stats visibility is very limited and you have to hold down "C" to see the rest. The scale to make it bigger and smaller is horrid and it takes up too much of the screen and is bulky for no apparent reason. I find it insulting that you think this UI is better for the improvement of the game when you can't even create something and roll it out with proper usage and functionality. Also the slide bars in options don't function properly. Clicking in a certain spot only makes it increase up to about an inch before where you are clicking... BROKEN

AGAIN GIVE ME AN OPTION TO REVERT AND USE CLASSIC UI HUD! This new one will only cause you to lose me as a customer.

I agree unfortunately, Its not like all things are bad, I love that I can see my allies ulty cooldown, but I hate that I have to squint to see my allies ulty cooldown... before at a glance to the left I could see my allies life and stats but this new one, and they are so tiny and scrunched together over the...minimap for some reason, I mean... that combined with the fact the new artworks for half the champions don't actually look like the champions means I'm spending 1.5 seconds every time I glance down there to figure out who has what on cd and who has what hp left, defeating the whole purpose of having displayed stats like that.
