"Thanks to your continued feedback, we've moved some more important buffs back to the center of the HUD."

That is WONDERFUL, NOW MOVE THE REST OF THE BUFFS BACK LIKE NEARLY THE ENTIRETY OF THE PLAYER BASE HAS BEEN ASKING FOR.

I would rather have it moved back center but making it an option is also fine

Not everyone wants it moved back, however it would be nice to have customizable options for this. Please don't speak for everyone if you're just going to take one side of things.

Why the fuck rito... Now, that smite is a buff icon, WHY DOES IT MOVE BACK AND FORTH WHEN YOU HAVE CHILLING SMITE

It should be in the DEAD center of the screen IMO. but no they move to the itsy bitsy spider corner where nobody can see it.

I'm ok with the idea of having 2 places to put buffs. The problem right now is that you still have important buffs that are on the left. I haven't tested this patch, but mana potions and biscuits were showing on the left which can be important to not chug 2 in a row.

I think the idea of moving some buff to the left is because they are intending in adding more buffs icons to the game when it makes sense (slows, roots, etc) which would go in the middle of the screen. Of course if that's the plan, they should just communicate that with us ;)

Not sure how many threads with hundreds of upvotes Riot needs until they finally make this easy UI modificaiton.

Honestly though, buffs on the left side is one of the most poorly thought out designs of this preseason. I dare say it is even worse than "Oneshotwick"Warwick was. Also, it messes up my streaming overlay!

Agreed

Just leaving this here in the hopes that adding to the numbers will help persuade Riot.

Honestly, I don't care about where the buffs are placed. I don't have trouble seeing them no matter where they are.

As a long time player, having the buffs removed from the middle feels like someone broke off the rear view mirror in my car, and duct taped it to the glovebox. Its a nightmare! at least make it an option please : ) At this point its starting to feel like things are just being changed for the sake of change.

YES!

At the same time they can give Gangplank and Shen back the flavour buffs they lost.

Have the important interesting stuff, like active timers and smite damage and stuff on the left, and then all the transitory buffs and debuffs on the right (where the actives are now), that would make sense.

At the very least give us an option to customize it. I really hate having buffs there instead of the middle...

Hyrum Graff1/16/2015, 7:06:02 PM1 votes

Here's the thing. PERMANENT buffs and unimportant ones should be on the left, IMO. Things like nasus stacks, dragon buffs, that nobody is checking in the middle of combat -- those should be on the side.

Things that you might want to check during combat, those belong in the center.

This didn't really bother me, league is constantly evolving. You aren't going to like everything that comes along. I think the best route would be to just give the player the option of where said things should go to fit said players ideals.

I just want all buffs with a minimum remaining time of 30 seconds to 1 minute to be moved to the center. I've got a large monitor and have to look 14 inches to the left of center to figure out if I have a random 5 second buff on me. It sucks and whomever had the idea to move them initially should just stop if they aren't going to allow us to modify the UI ourselves.

Dude stop being toxic, I can't even start the cause of firewall error after champ select. Let Riot fix their servers and bugs first before concentrating on your kiddie whining.

Kurvora1/17/2015, 1:53:35 AM

I would rather have them in the middle, not just the important ones, but all of them.
