Anyone else think the reward system for Pick Em is kinda stupid?

We have at the top the reward for a perfect pick aka basically no one. At the bottom an icon that functions as nothing more than a participation reward. And then in the "middle" a second icon which is ALSO a participation reward. Because 34 points is going to be basically everyone at the end of this tournament, even with all the upsets. You'd probably get the second icon picking at random, and thats not an exaggeration. Minimum for the tier II should be at least 60 or it basically doesn't mean anything meaning that Pick'Em rewards mean nothing to all but a fraction of players.

I'm so sorry you're angry about free things. :( I know, it's a tough life, but with a little bit of try, you'll get through it sweetie.

I mean, I've hit 34 before the Knockout Stage.

They wanted it to be something attainable by nearly everyone. Basically a participation reward. If their intent was to make it difficult to get both icons then that's exactly what they would've done, but that's obviously not their intent.

I think the idea is to keep the point system low enough so it attracts as many players as possible. It's pretty much a gimme, but you gotta participate.

It's meant to be available for everyone. The impossible tier awards go to those 10 people that can correctly guess all of Worlds, and they deserve Championship Riven.

I agree. I mean the Riven champion skin is cool, but I could care less about the summoner icons

I already have the points for the icon and I don't even get to use it until after it's a participation reward.
