Capsule gave me Blitz, Ashe, and then 90 blue essence instead of a shard?

Why? Like... I don't even understand the reasoning. 450BE champ shards disenchant for 90 blue essence. Instead of giving an additional 450BE shard, some capsules just give you the flat BE value instead of a shard that you could potentially use for champ mastery or something? I really don't think there was much thought behind this system at all. I'm sure there was plenty of discussion about how to convert IP to BE, and the cost/risk analysis to maximize profit from the new system and how it relates to champ sales using RP. But it really feels like nobody thought about how the system actually looks to the players.

Apparently, when people complained about the drops they thought..

"hey, they don't like getting multiple shards of the same shitty champ... let's just disenchant the duplicates for them, that's exactly what the problem was".

Like it's almost insulting that they think we're so simple-minded. Like at the VERY least, vary the shards up, so ppl can unlock the low value champs. The real issue (for me), is that the rewards feel so anemic... and given that the levels become harder to complete, it just feels bad when the rewards themselves remain the same, effectively, giving us less BE per experience point.

Oh so it would have been an Ashe duplicate? That's so... lazy.
