This New System ? Riot is stepping away from Old Roots

I have supported league for 13 years. and ever since season 2- 3 ive noticed riot has made New Gamers their priority, simplifying the game for those who "never have played pc games" can ever have hopes of figuring out what to even do & your "average pc gamer" can just hop on and already know whats going on in a matter of their first game. Making the game more and more communicative. I get it. But you are shying away from > ** " making a game Hardcore gamers will love to spend hours and hours playing."**

I will more than likely be saying goodbye this year.

This new system isnt Older player friendly, I have spent so much time into runes and run pages for it all to be just thrown away, Since I also didnt get any BE compensation for as much IP & Runes I already worked so hard for. Masteries and runes into one ? I cant build specifically the way I want anymore utilizing my knowledge of rune building to my own specific play style at that moment ? its all generalized catering to the new player who is able to utilize everything at lvl 1. BE rewarding is a joke, and since ALL I GAME "IS"/"WAS" LEAGUE, when I reach lvl 80 ? whats the calculations then ? Im done with league CONSTANTLY changing the game up every single year. Catering to the new player rather than their Vets who have been with Riot from the near start. Im surprised they didn't change the entire map layout again and item selection.

Can you please undo this new system riot? These rewards are a insult for Vet players

No they're not. They're great, and they have a specific purpose in the game, which is motivation to stay positive and try their best (for those S ranks).

Trust me, nobody wants a legacy mode more than me, where we can play old versions of the game. But most likely, the game will continue to go in the direction it's going, which is awesome. It's still a game that hardcore players spend thousands of hours in.

You are EUW ? Here in NA I know people who have played since around the start and have left since riot started to drastically change, they lose old players while gaining more mainstream customers who are in it for the hype not the fact that it was a game to test your skills PC competitive wise. I am not talking about the "specific purpose" IN GAME. Im talking about the targeted gamer that riot was originally founded on. Go thru the forums in NA and you will see I am not alone in this. You can say all you want but this is just turning into a "Politically Correct", Cater to your average 13yr old pc gamer, money hungry business

How long have you truly been with League ?
