The New HUD
I'm going to get down voted and flamed for this but... I like it. I really do and here is why.
-
My team mates health bars are over my map. This means I can check their position and vitals at the same time instead of having to look from one side of my screen to the other.
-
The information is more consolidated. The old Hud hand information all over the place. Now its nice a neat in 2 locations
-
I can hide and unhide my stats whenever I want. This isn't information that I CONSTANTLY need. I personally prefer to keep it up but now I have the option and may use that option in the future.
-
We get MORE information with the new HUD. My CDR is constantly view able, I can tell approximately how many minions are in that wave, I know exactly when my team mates are going to get their ULTs. Its just more information that we didn't use to have readily available to us.
-
Finally... It just looks better. It fits the map design and the art of the newer champs. The old one didn't fit in anymore and just seamed out of place.
I get that when something that's been in place for 5 years changes there is going to be backlash. People don't like different. However I think if you give it a chance and time you'll come to like it too. Love it or hate it the new HUD is here to stay.
