Store Visual Update heading to PBE

Aloha!

We're making some visual changes to the store and wanted to give you a heads up before everything goes to PBE. We made the whole package visually match the client, Champ Select, and Hextech Crafting, which means a few buttons and bars got moved. Most notably, you’ll see that the navigation bar has moved from its old spot on the left side of the store to the top (see below).

Other changes include:

  • A more streamlined navigation bar
  • A Gameplay menu featuring Runes and Boosts,
  • An Accessories menu, including Wards, Icons, Chests and Keys
  • A new Account Icon in the upper right, where name changes can be made
  • A new RP button (ohhh fancy)

We hope you dig it. Let us know what you think. Thanks!

Have you finally made it so that when I'm browsing the shop while queuing I don't constantly lose my place every single time someone forgets to accept the match? Not major but it gets really annoying after the 10th time in a row.

I know a lot of people had suggested this but can we get a wishlist option? It'll be nice to have a notification whenever one of your wishlist item is on sale. Function of making it private or public(low-key asking for gifts) would be nice.

You think you could add a search bar to directly look up a skin/champ/item? Otherwise this looks great

It would be nice to see the animations of a skin/champion in the shop before u buy it !!

Animated Loading Screen please. I want to see my beautiful skin animated while waiting for the game to load. [slayer-jinx-wink]

I know this is going to be downvoted forever, but Limited Edition skin owners are still waiting for that survey Hippalus promised 2 years ago.

And we're still waiting for proper compensation -- a tiered icon and an in-game emote when using those skins would be more than enough.

Come on Riot, keep your promises! Can't you work on things that were promised before all these new things?

Wow, now it actually looks like it is a real client of a game

He League of Legends i think its a good idea to reset the refunds that everbody gets 3 refunds again. i have at my own a big problem i don't have my refunds anymore because the first 3 days i played league i didn't saw you only have 3. thank you for reading my message*[slayer-jinx-catface]*

Hah, too bad I won't be using the new store, since you nerfed Canadian RP so hard. $10.00 = 975 skin? No thanks.

I don't suppose we'll be getting our "RP Purchase Rewards" like Hippaulus said three years ago, either, huh?

Looks pretty sweet. Honestly I've been waiting for this for a while. Next level is to work on account pages. Changing runes is pretty archaic. Would love to see some work there. [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

Meh, I don't like how everything is so large and boxy. It's too active and cluttered, much like the current home-screen. Wait, what's the difference between the two's designs now? Both are just large boxes/rectangles that shove content in the face. All I see is BUY BUY BUY instead of casual browsing.

Modmar2/26/2016, 7:47:00 PM10 votes

Will this remove/add any tabs/items? It looks like we go from 9+ (depending on what you count as store tabs) to maybe 7 or 8. Otherwise It looks sleek and cool and really enjoyable.

P.S. NEVER UPDATE THE HELP WINDOW!!!!!

I hope that this visual rework comes with some mechanical tweaks as well. Was kind of off-put by how slow/clunky the current shop feels at times, and even more off-put by its inability to save my purchase info for future use.

This is a pleasant surprise, though. Damn Rito, you're making some major quality pushes lately. I love it.

Nice job guys!

Just a suggestion, but perhaps a skin overview? when we click on the skin and we are browsing, i'd say provide clips of the skin's particle effects in use if there are any. Pretty much all of my purchases have been made through watching skin spotlights on YouTube. I think it would make the shop look more professional, and It might even reel in more sales if you provide visuals on just what exactly you are trying to sell. Again, just a suggestion, I can live wthout this since skin spotlights are still a thing on YouTube! [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

@Rioters Please fix the whole.. inconsistent reloading avenue that the client does? Your browsing through the shop, and you all of a sudden see a skin you want. But off the top of the head you want to click off to look at something else - You have to reload the whole shop right now, just go view that one skin aagain. (Which is why I mostly do skin shopping through champ screen.)

Gathur2/28/2016, 6:14:52 AM3 votes

This doesn't have anything to do with the Shop, however this is for the Rune and Masteries page. Can we please have an option to organize our masteries? A drag and drop type of thing or maybe an "edit order". That way it would be much easier and more organized during champion select and make it look neater in General. Thank you!
