Champion Prices
I already made this post once but it disappeared for some reason..
I've been playing league for about 6 - 7 years and I recently lost my account, upon trying to rebuild my account I found it harder than I remember to get the champions I wanted and was good at. It takes way to long to get a 6300 champion, this is from experience and It quite off putting. The main argument is that champions are priced too high. I am suggesting that all champions be priced something in the middle like 3250? making them more accessible to player new and old.
Collecting all the champions is really a feat.. that being said it would take roughly 4 years. Heres the math
Calculations:
Method: Step 1: How much IP would it take? 13 450 IP Champions: 5,850 22 1,350 IP Champions: 29,700 24 3,150 IP Champions: 75,600 46 4,800 IP Champions: 220,800 32 6,300 IP Champions: 163,200 (Note: This is calculated using 5,100 instead, as rolling champion shards (1,700 x 3) is cheaper than buying the champions at 6,300.)
Total IP Cost of All Champions: 495,150
Step 2: How fast do you earn IP? IP from Win: 18 + 2.312/Min (87.36 for a 30 Min Game) IP from Loss: 16 + 1.405/Min (58.15 for a 30 Min Game)
First Win of the Day: 150 IP Assumption: 3 Games Per Day, Play Coop vs AI any time you lose the first 2 games.
Daily Rate: 368 IP / Day
Step 3: Simple Division 495,150 / 368 = 1344 Days, or 3 Years, 8 Months

Of course these numbers are estimated but from my standpoint they are still fairly accurate. To get a single 6300 champion is takes nearly 2 whole consecutive days of playing, or if you are playing the estimated 3 games a day, 17 days. This is absolutely ludicrous. Hard to find a champion you like and want to play it takes 17 days to get one of the 140 ..
I understand if you wanted to put new champions are a higher price for a set amount of time but to have champions priced so highly, well there's actually no reason for it.
Without making this too long the main point is it takes too long to acquire champions
Thank you for your time I hope I can get a reply Sincerely Just Another Player..
