My thoughts on the new HUD Short Version 1)It is distracting, do not put pictures and items in the middle of the screen. 2)Bring the stats page back please. 3)The new cooldown and not enough mana animations are distracting and harder to read. 4)Keep health and mana in the middle other stuff less important to fighting on the sides. 5)Do not overload part of the screen, spread it out around the screen. preferably symmetrical. 6)Please make the interface look solid and sound not like a cheap flimsy little pocket knife type deal with different slots sliding in and out. 7)Make it an option to have the old one.

Longer Version

  1. Its very distracting and being placed in the middle of the screen hinders a players ability to keep what he wants to focus on in the middle of his screen.
  2. The loss of the statistics page is extremely frustrating for players trying to look at stats. Alternatively the new statistics page is harder to read smaller and cluttered. The loss of the stats window means players have to mouse over different tiny pictures to read what stat is displayed.
  3. The new cooldown animation is too much and is distracting, I think for a game with as much happening as league of legends that things like spell cooldowns do not need to be flashy and vibrant as it distracts from the actual game. 3.5) The same i believe is true for the new out of mana icon on spells.
  4. I feel things that are essential to combat such as player health, mana ability cooldowns and summoner spells should be kept central but things like gold and items as well as player cs and kda should be kept to the sides of the screen as a player is not interested with their current gold and item slots in a fight
  5. The new HUD over loads the bottom half of the screen making the display look lopsided and cluttered on the bottm and the top half feeling naked and empty. I believe player stats skills and game information should be spread around the outside of the screen somewhat evenly to create something more pleasant to the eye and less over whelming to new and less experienced players.
  6. The new HUD looks like a cheap yugio card deck holder type deal or a pocket knife gadget type thing. It looks flimsy and has different tabs of information sliding in and out of it, please make the interface look solid and reliable. 7)please make it an option for us to use the old interface as I am so rattled in game by the new HUD that I forget to even buy items sometimes now :'(.
