before you are like just play a ton of games not everyone can play 10 games per day and there are over 130 champs in the game so its not like it was 4 years ago where there were like 60 champs so if you just join league you have to play non stop to get any champs and then tier 3 runes cost a ton. IP is also very influenced by if you win or not so i would like to petition to make either champs cost less ip or increase the ip we get per g ame

We want!
Ztoka2 votesActually, I would think it could make them more money because who spends rp on champs? People unlock champs w/ ip then fall in love w/ them and decide to buy skins for that champ which is where the $$$ is made. The more champions a person has, the more skins they will end up buying.. Just my thoughts..
oSEXYPLATYPUSo1 votespeople spend rp on champs and skins. there really isnt anything else you would buy with rp
UberAffe2 votesIf you play 4 games every week and win 50% you will average about 60ip per game on the low side that would take you 26.25 weeks or about 6 months to afford a 6300 champion and that is without win of the day bonus, so lets go worst case and you play all 4 games of the week in 1 day now it only takes about 16.5 weeks or about 4 months. Since there are more than 4 months between champion releases you should have plenty of ip to get champions as they are released while still gaining ip to buy other champions or runes.
Aside from that the IP system isn't designed around people playing 4 times per week, most people that play this game play 10+ games per week

thats true but still thats for one 6300 champ out of the over 100 champs in league
UberAffe2 votesyes ... I don't understand the complaint. You aren't meant to get all the champions in a weekend.
Treeofwar6 votesyes ... I don't understand the complaint. You aren't meant to get all the champions in a weekend.
did not say a weekend but its still way too much ip to get all the champs or even half of them.
UberAffe1 votesI've been playing for about 4 years and I have played somewhere around 2k games total (which is fairly low for how long I have been playing) and I have 83 champions and most of the runes that are actually useful along with 12 pages.
That is playing an average of 9.5 games per week which again is on the low side.There are 13 champions I haven't even played since the mastery system came out and most of the other champions I have only played 1-2 games on. Personally that pacing seems fine, especially for a game that is meant to be played like a sport.

they half the leveling games needed to reach 30 so that means you dont get as much ip as before too meaning that all the new kids will jump into ranked with no champs and no runes. If you half the time needed to get to 30 double the ip so you dont lose all that ip you would have gotten to get to 30. and if thats a stupid idea why cant they increase the ip gained by a bit not like it hurts them since ip is free and gained just by playing and no one like to grind out 60 games to get one champ

typically you shouldnt be playing rank with out 20 or so champs and at least two basic rune pages that being AD and AP
and to jump into rank with 100 wins at lvl 30 is bad. you dont know enough about the game at that point and need alot more practice to make a legit shot at rank. this is why bronze is the mess it is.
ideally you would want 300 wins before you queue up for rank. so say you win 50% of games that would be 600 games played and you should have good understanding of the game so when you go into rank your not trying to figure it out.

Your not counting the first win of the day the best champion farming way is to play beginner bots for the free win, and continue with PVP

TequilaZombie1 votesI want all champions for the bragging rights. Same reason why I make sure to rush my main to max mastery level asap.
Kanlar1 votesBuy champions with rp or ip boost
Koala Frenzy1 votesMeanwhile most people are sitting on 50k+ ip with nothing to spend it on.
TequilaZombie2 votesMeanwhile I'm playing since Season 2 and still don't own all the champions.
I truly wish I had the time to play enough to get to sit on craploads of IP.
Hrkk Ptoo1 votesI can usually buy 2 6300 Champs a month. Seems reasonable to me.
tooomine1 votesyou right, man. the level of stuff that you can get is great, but the time it takes to get that stuff is excruciatingly painful.
TI3d17N1CS1 votesthey should make runes free and keep the ip gain and champion prices the same
Thunderspam1 votesor add a win streak bonus
LatetotheRace1 votesHere's an bit of information for anyone wondering what it takes to unlock every champion in the game from scratch. 513,000 IP Which is about... 2332 games with the first win of the day bonus. (If played exactly every 22 hours, this equates to 2137.666666667 days of play) 5965 regular games over 37 minutes at 50% winrate 10260 aram games... ish Featured gamemodes will be roughly the same as normals btw.
