Is anyone else scared to use their BE now?

Linna Excel··1 votes·219 views

So I've got enough BE to get 3 6300 champs if I wanted to. However after all I've heard on the forums, now I'm kinda scared to use it. I was thinking about getting J4 in case I wanted to jungle more. Nope, can't waste BE. Zoe looks interesting. Getting 6300 BE in a month is probably not going to happen now, so I probably shouldn't (even if she wasn't broken). I main support so maybe I should consider Rakan or Bard or Thresh... nope. Gotta stick to Soraka and Zyra now.

Is anyone else in the same boat as me? You have the stuff you need, and while there's stuff you want and can afford with BE, you aren't sure you should spend it, just in case. I mean sure I could grab a few more champs, but what if I waste my BE and the next champ is a perfect one for my lane and playstyle? I'd be screwed while trying to grind for months on end.

I mean sure, riot is probably only going to release 3 new champs this year, but what if they are all home runs?

I'm just as wary as I was with IP.

Often ended up sitting on like 50k ip figuring that maybe something limited time for IP might come out and I'd regret spending it on champs I can get whenever, or some spicy strategy requiring unusual runes would be discovered that I'd want to be able to get in on. I've since spent everything in BE store, which essentially reset my currency collection.

Sitting on like 16k BE now, with 5 ish champs left to buy. Reluctant to buy champs without using a champ shard for the price reduction at this point, but think I'm probably willing to if I do get the champ shard.

Don't feel it takes months to get a 6300 champ though. Things feel relatively slow since most of us don't have anything better to focus on than leveling and accumulating BE at this point of the year, but once the next ranked season starts and people start grinding for LP instead of BE, I feel like people are gonna build up piles of BE 'accidentally', much in the same way as people got piles of IP without even trying for it while trying to hit their ranked goals.

No, because I'm only missing Zoe and can't even play cause a busted monitor that turns on and off.

I really don't think you should be Linna. Like, I am still going to continue checking to see what the amounts are over the next few months, but I have no doubts that what Riot said is accurate. That most people are going to get the same or a little more. I know people on the forums have saying been otherwise (with bad math and wrong information), but it doesn't make sense that Riot would misrepresent something so easily falsifiable.

Nope. I have like 40k and all champs ¯\(ツ)/¯
