They want you to dynamic boost for increased drop rate.

but it's ok, riot respects solo players and values them as part of the game...

they just give unneccessary exclusive advantages/rewards to premades because they can

there's a modifier that reduces your chances at getting a key fragment for ever key fragment you get. it resets every month i believe

The key fragment limitation is perhaps the most annoying aspect of this hextech crafting system imo.

Sure some people see potential for a free skin and it washes away the rest of the associated nonsense. I mean LoL didnt have free premium cosmetics like most F2P games until recently. Even after adding it they did so in a fairly limited fashion.

I mean that free skin comes tied to:

Having to earn an S on a champion (difficulty varying) Random skin obtained 3 key fragments needed (RNG factors) Now you need to repeat the first 3 steps till you have enough skins to "destroy" so you can unlock a skin.

All on top of only being able to get a chest from a champion once/season. Meaning the amount of free stuff you can unlock is based on how many champions you own, your ability to earn the highest performance on them, and grind enough keys to open the chest, all to have to destroy some of your drops to fund the "unlocking" of the others... Yeah, free stuff, woo.

I mean dont get me wrong, I know its free stuff, but the multiple "gates" to this free stuff borders on harsh. Its just straight insulting when you get free chest for your premades chest earnings, but nothing for solo q. The key fragments though, need to be a little easier to get consistently.

they cant ruin their only avenue for profit. that'd be idiotic from a business standpoint. i've earned a LOT of skins that i never would have gotten had the crafting system not been added. some if not most of them were legendary and others were epic. if you really really want to get as many free skins as possible just farm them with your buddies. 5 man premades have a better chance of winning #1 and #2 you are more likely to receive a chest afterwards. key fragments arent impossible to earn after a certain point just really really difficult. since it's all random number generation there's always a chance so long as the rate of drop isnt exactly zero.

Its not the ONLY way they make money, there is also RP champ sales, rune pages, boost, and people who dont want to wait for the greater than 1/400 chance of getting a skin they actually want to own.

I dont have a premade to play with, none of my friends play LoL, Im not going to find a whole second set of friends just to play LoL with. I dont have a lot of time to organize playing with a group of people that will consistently earn S ratings.

Keep that in mind next time you reach out to someone with a useless "why dont you just" solution. You obviously stopped reading my post half way through or you would have seen the "Its just straight insulting when you get free chest for your premades chest earnings, but nothing for solo q" sentence.

champs are bought with free IP. rune pages are bought with free IP. boosts are unneeded for a first time account and for max level accounts. you repeated skins so that negates itself. skin releases are the only reliable way for riot to make money. i dont have any friends who play league either because im an adult and my friends have busy lives, but i can earn s ranks pretty easily so i get a lot of friend requests on this game from my fellow bronze divisions. you dont have to actively hunt for friends to play league with if you're actually absorbed into the community, good at the game, or genuinely not an ass. they dont have to consistently earn the S ratings, but by playing together you'll grow familiar with each other and learn to trust each other to the point that you wont ignore advice from each other and the experience will actually be more wholesome as opposed to being the opposite - which means you automatically have better chances at getting a higher rating. that being said if you're anti-social and your personality is as awful as you make yourself sound by calling my advice useless and personally reaching out to insult me by assuming that i didnt read your post because i didnt baby you about it then no i dont foresee any hope for you in finding league friends or obtaining S ranks.

you dont make friends you earn them. keep that in mind next time you look outside and wonder why the clouds dont pause to greet you.

I have all the friends I care to have, dont need anymore really... those friends dont play LoL. Keep that in mind next time you spew dumbass bullshit at strangers on the internet.

then dont complain because you cant take advantage of a system that promotes being friendly towards strangers when you yourself refuse to. you're already on the boards and you already have a keyboard and mouse and are connected to the internet. if you refuse to take advantage of it then that's your fault. no one's going to hold your hand and introduce you.

literally the whole point of the system currently implemented is to promote playing together and making new friends.
