How is it rewarding to get 450be champ shards in every single level up capsule?

InfinitexMortal··50 votes·1,827 views

I've had the 450be champs since i hit level 30, 3 years ago. I do not need or want 450be champ shards and no disenchanting them for 90be does not feel rewarding more like a slap in the face.

Amumu Annie Ashe Garen Kayle MasterYi Nunu Poppy Ryze Singed Sivir Soraka Warwick These champs should not be included in any level up capsules post level 30.

its ok because cactopus threw some shit into our faces and that constitutes as communication and once a company has communicationed with you they can do no wrong, at least according to most of reddit.

And getting 2 Garens and 2 Warwicks along with whatever other random pieces to fill out the BE minimum just adds insult to injury.

Got 20 champion shards from loot and capsule and not a single 6300 BE champion (2 4800 BE) and all the champion shards are of already owned champions.

Well if what happened with Belgium is true, over there lootboxes are now considered a form of gambling. Which will force a lot of companies (including Riot) to remove them from their games or have the age limit go higher, making them less accessible.

I believe they want to have them removed but haven't enforced that law as of yet. It's the first step towards that very likely outcome however.

Out of 5 champion capsules (each one containing 4-5 shards) I have only gotten 1x 3150 champion shard, and all the rest were 1350 or 450. All of them I already owned as well.

Dude I agree, I hate this new Ip / BE system. It is so hard for me to obtain enough currency to purchase my champion I want. I was able to obtain IP so much faster to purchase champions. Actually felt like I was getting something every game as well. Now I have to wait till I play 10 / 15 games (what it feels like) just to open a capsule that gives me 2x450 champs and 1x1350 champ. Its sad but it does make me lose interest in the game much faster. I have no problem paying money for skins for champions I enjoy playing but it seems like Riot is trying to make people feel pressured to purchase champions with Riot points because they are dang near impossible to purchase now.

seriously I just get straight up garbage every time I level. The one decent thing I got was bard, whom I already own, and he was the ONLY THING IN MY CAPSULE!

Because they are there as a factor to bump up the value of capsule. For your reward, you can just disenchant them for the IP/BE you wanted anyway if you are not going to use them for mastery levels. So, "These champs should not be included in any level up capsules post level 30." No, I would not enjoy getting less BE.

If I could glue a ball of Caterpie wearing top hats together and it would evolve into a Charizard, I would run around Viridian Forest for an hour because that would feel awesome.

Not saying they should lower the value of BE in capsules im saying that low level champ shards are worthless and them disenchanting for the low amount of 90be is insulting for the time it takes to get them.

Have you ever added up how many 450be champ shard disenchants it will take to get 1 6300be champ?

70!

70 MasterYi's will get you 1 Yasuo [slayer-jinx-unamused]

Well see the thing is, they literally aren't worthless and not just in the BE value. And if BE values are what is important: They are there to bump up the BE value. Having 1's in the system allows more divisible numbers.

I was already aware that it would take 70 CaterYi's to unlock him. But we don't just get the one right or that it is what we always get, right? And it's not as if hasn't always taken a long time to unlock a champion for free instead of paying. It would take near a hundred games in the IP system to unlock a champion without the first win bonuses.

I am still going to be collecting data over the coming months to learn and get accurate picture about this. As of now, it looks to be about the same for most and I can say is that for some, like myself, it seem that I am getting more champion unlock progression than before. I'll be looking into and double-checking that.
