Unsealed spellbook should allow you to swap summoners around for free

I'm sure I'm not alone when I'm saying that I like to keep my summoners on certain keys, like heal on D and flash on F or if I use TP, flash on D and TP on F. Now the problem I have with unsealed spellbook is that when I start my game with heal/ignite on D, flash on F and then I want to swap whatever is on my D key to TP, it leaves me with an unfamiliar summoner order until I swap back and we all know what happens when we have summoners on the wrong keys.

Now my solution is pretty simple, when you click on the summoner you already have, it will swap around just like in champ select with no cost. It might also need something to show that you just swap the summs, not that you get a copy of the summoner.

EDIT: Velzard of Koz had the cool idea of being able to swap the two summoner around even without the rune, it will probably need a modified UI from unsealed for just the 2 (or maybe just a button), but it would solve the unfortunate cases where we go in a match with the summs on the wrong key.

Also as some of you pointed out, a work around for now would be rebinding the 2 summoners around.

This is a nice and simple QOL change. I support it. Lets give this some visibility folks.

Or you know even something more genial. How about being able to swap the two Summoner Spells just like... without Rune.

I can't think of any abuse case, I suppose it doesn't work like that purely due to lack of tech, however the tech to achieve this would be similar to the one used for Unsealaed Spellbook.

Also, in case they don't fix it, I want to make sure that you know you can change keybind. Surely, it's pain in the arse to do it on every swap, however it pseudofixes your problem.

Came to talk about the viability of unsealed spell book and possible buffs but I guess I could upvote this while I'm here

if this doesnt happen you can go in menu and change it manually so that summoner 1 is on f key and summoner 2 is on d key or what ever ur preferance is.

Correct me if im wrong but im pretty sure clicking on a summoner spell uses it unless its on cooldown.

Rebind the hot keys, or can you not do that anymore?

Are there actually people who believe that spellbook needs a buff? It's one of the most broken runes atm....

Actually there should be an option in game to do this for you, regardless of runes. Sometimes in an off-role you don't know which buttons your muscle memory will press for that new spell you never usually use.

Or you can just fix the settings in game

The easiest way I can think of is perhaps freely allowing you to change the Summoners when in base, like you can now, but consume the stacks as you leave the base.

Much like the shop system where you can undo your actions before you leave base, you are free do change your Summoners, and the changes are locked in as you leave the base or use the summoners.

This will have 0 impact on gameplay, just make the system a bit more cohesive.

But to be honest, most people won't be changing flash anyway...

I always 100% have flash on D and whatever else I have on f. Now that's not to say this should not be implemented. Especially if you need access to flash and the only key up is f.

I honestly didn't know that people swapped flash ever.

Should be removed from the game
