Acquiring Champions is way too slow

I am almost level 200 on this account. I created this account recently, and didn't get champions for RP, but only by leveling up. Currently I have 82 champions, which is absurd, considering that there are 145 of them, and I'm nearly lvl 200. I was using the fastest methods for getting champions, which is not purchasing them on full price but rather upgrading them from champion shards for a lowered price, and also got many champ shards from chests as well (ty rito), and still dont have 2/3 of them. (Well I did spend some BE for champion masteries, but who doesnt) Judging by this, a player would need to get at least lvl 250 to finally have all champions, and not spend any BE on masteries or anything else you can.

On pre-30 levels, you earn champions considerably fast, because beginner missions grant you champion permanents, but after 30, the pace of acquiring drastically slows down, and only speeds up after you reach higher levels and get more and costlier champs.

I think this should be changed. For a new player, that doesnt supposedly grind the game 8 hours every day like most of us needs weeks to earn enough BE for a 6300 BE Champion that they might like to try.

I mean do you really need to have them all unlocked? I could never learn new champs faster than I could unlock them.

I have them all unlocked now, but I hardly play half of the champs. I still haven't touched two or three.

Also I might be using the wrong board but whatever

In the early years, it took me the better part of 2 1/2 years to unlock all champions. Runes ate ip.

Used to be about 1 or so months of regular Playing with IP to have enough for the 6300s.

This board is fine, champion pools impact gameplay.

Pick 20 and dont buy more... You will suck at them anyway. I would make em even more expensive to stop people from hoarding.

I can't really see a practical need for owning all champs considering riot prefers people to 1-trick a lot of champs. Even if you want to trade roles 10 per lane (50 totals) should typically be enough with the right picks.

Owning all champs is more for completionists than anything else.

I mean.... do you really need them all? I don't play most of them. I just have them because I'm a legacy account holder who had a lot of champs before the change from IP to BE.

You would have hated the IP system. It took a lot longer to get champs under the old system.
