You should get a small amount of blue essence after every game
Even if it is just like 20 or 25, it could still make a noticeable difference

Also, if Riot doesn't want it from every game, maybe tie it to First Win of Day bonus? I like this idea.
I think I like that better. That way no one feels compelled to grind out game after game to farm essence, and can just play one game per day.
didn't know you win every day jerk, some of us suck ass >.>
You can get fwotd bonus from vs AI matches

If you can't win against beginner bots, I can't help you :/ Git gud I guess
I wouldn't touch beginner bots with a 500000000000000 teemo pole, have you SEEN what those things do for revenge?!
I don't wanna deal with those nightmares I have enough fears thank you very much!
I'm still on the run from that
snowball that i recalled away from back in S5.
I saw a akali kama fly past me one time when my teammate backed, it was scary
A choice of IP or Essence wold be cool
That choice is already there, since you can turn IP into blue essence if you want.
How is that ? Never knew i could do that
1700 IP for champion shard, disenchant.
True dat, but some champion shards are crappy and give you like 30 essence only. 1700 IP shouldn't be worth that little.
You get the same amount of blue essence for every champion shard you buy.
If the champion shard you receive is worth less blue essence, then you also receive extra blue essence to make up the difference - so you always receive the maximum amount of blue essence from every champion shard you buy that way.
For instance, I just bought a champion shard. It gave me a Malphite champion shard, along with 40 extra blue essence to make up the difference.
The compensation doesn't give you the full amount, so there is still a difference between 975RP champs and those below, but the compensation greatly lowers the gap. Getting lower cost champs is actually better for rerolling, though, because you get free essence on top of a 3-for-1 trade.
i mean there are a lot of threads on "give us more free stuff" these days, rito really doesn't want to do that so its probably never going to happen tho.
The thing is that Blue essence will only affect the stuff you can get free with playing anyway. At this point I've been playing for nearly 3 years, I've gotten 98% of the First Win of the Day bonuses in that time. I have managed all of the 3150 and below champions. I don't all of the 4800 and I have a few of the 6300. That's a LOT of time spent playing just to get the champions. The amount of IP that I need to get the remaining champions is 148,800... Well technically 129,600 because you can buy 6300 champions for 5100 with Hextech crafting if all you have is 6300 champions left. That is still an incredible amount of IP when an average game is around 100 IP.
the "free" stuff is hard to get so you pay money for it ya know, ive bought a lot of champions for RP and thats something riot wants you to do.
It depends on your playstyle. If you don't do premades and specialize in a few champs rather than tons, then getting chests to get blue essence for level 6 / 7 mastery is difficult. I've had both my tokens for my only mastery 5 champion I have for like 5 months, and I've only gotten one champion shard in that time :/
I play solo and chests are not a problem. Keys are exceedingly rare is my problem.
As a one-trick, i have the opposite of your problem. :/
I kinda know what you mean
I spammed Fiora and Anivia until I got my normals MMR into around low plat high gold level (I'm low silver) and now whenever I try to get an S with any other champ, I suck shit because I'm not playing the champs that I know inside out.
I just rely on the rotating game modes on the weekends. Dumb luck gets you more chests than you think. Just don't play free week champs.
I got a bunch of chests playing in groups on ARURF. More fun than aram, and got a handful of chests out of it too.
i play solo i have sooooolpp many keeeys
If you get all chests that you can get, you'll always end up with more or equal chests compared to keys. Every 4 weeks you can get 4 chests and 12 key fragments. If you missed out a key fragment once, you'll end up having more chests than fragments for the rest of your life until you miss a chest.
You can buy champion shards from the store for 1700 IP a piece. Get 2 of those (3400 IP) and you can upgrade your mastery by disenchanting them for essence. The only issue one-tricks should have is getting all of their free chests.
Huh. I really should pay more attention; I thought all the crafting bundles were RP only. Now to decide whether to delay getting more champions in order to show off a bit...
They snuck it in a few patches after mastery 6 & 7 came out. I don't recall if the patch notes mentioned it or not, and most ppl skip the non-champion stuff anyway.

You can buy champ shards for 1700 IP and disenchant for the blue essence to get your mastery 6 and 7 emblems.
buy one then, 1700 IP gets you around 2-300 blue
EDIT: don't reply to this anyone I just noticed other people mentioned it.
I have played since Season 3, I have all but 9 champions.
All the runes I need, but still only 4 Rune pages. Thats next on the list after the rest of the champions.
You do, it's called iP
A post 2 above you gets upvotes saying the same thing, and you get downvoted
But that's none of my business
He didn't appeal to the larger opinion by not outright saying that he doesn't disagree.
Not that I think this is a stupid idea or anything, though maybe they should just give mystery champion tokens directly every few wins.
I think it's because he wasn't specific and thus looked like a fuqboi saying 'use IP instead to get them' rather than 'buy champion shards for IP, 1700 = 1 shard.)
that could be it.
That's actually. An amazing idea.
You do get blue essence every game: IP>mystery champion shard>champion shard>blue essence. If you just want more IP, that's fine. I'm just saying you're starting this argument on the wrong foot.
That's too much for every game, but I like the idea.
give 5 per game and it should be balanced, you would need 100 games with on games alone (without IP). Alternatively give 25/50 per game for a round 20/10 wins to get a mastery change.
Have amount tied to mastery score. Get more on an S+ than a B, for example.
hell id be ok with 10-15
It would make getting champion shards in your chests feel even worse than it already does (if that's even possible.)
What if you got a bit of Blue Essence for the first person you Honor in the post-game screen? Would encourage honoring but not make it necessary to do everyone so you actually still feel special when you're the one that gets honored.
And orange essence for EVERY report you make.

why?
