For Older Players. -Minor Compensations for the old rune system. -No champion shards rerolling,champion shards from hextech crafting are useless for players who own most or all of the champions now. -Less Orange Essence Level 30 Players Who Own Less Than 50 Champions.(the majority of lol players) -Less BE income. -Less Orange Essence -Close to None compensation for old rune system since they only owned basic runes. -Having to change Runes every single game because you only have 2 custom runepages avaiable for 150 champions. Level 1-30. -RNG lootboxes are essential to playing the game now. -Having to change Runes every single game because you only have 2 custom runepages avaiable for 150 champions. Balance Wise: -No Replacement for the fervor keystone mastery. -good old busted support masteries and items.ADCs taking kleptomancy -Mages go to lane with 20 armor

-Minor Compensations for the old rune system.

Meh. At least we got something.

-No champion shards rerolling,champion shards from hextech crafting are useless for players who own most or all of the champions now.

Disenchant and buy the ones you want?

-Less Orange Essence

So?

Level 30 Players Who Own Less Than 50 Champions.(the majority of lol players)

This was true before unless you spent alot of money. Getting to level 30 while buying a full set of runes for only 1 role never gave more then a couple dozen champions......

-Less BE income.

This is factually wrong. I am actually getting a lot more. It is also a huge improvement for casual players who get first win of the day and not much else.

-Less Orange Essence

You already listed this but my answer is still the same. So?

-Close to None compensation for old rune system since they only owned basic runes.

It's funny but I got a lot of BE for my runes and rune pages...... I also got three skins because I had bought a rune page for rp (when they were on sale)

-Having to change Runes every single game because you only have 2 custom runepages avaiable for 150 champions.

So? You wouldn't have even been able to change runes under the old system. I would think that is a improvement.

Level 1-30.

Not sure what your complaint is here..... They reduced the time to get to 30 and increased the amount of BE pre 30 so that you get champions faster then before.

-RNG lootboxes are essential to playing the game now.

No. you could spend money. Or just Disenchant the champs you get and pick the one you want.

-No Replacement for the fervor keystone mastery.

So? There is a rune for pretty much everyone one. Any champion who benefited from Fervor can either go Press the Attack or Lethal Tempo and benefit as well or better.

-good old busted support masteries and items.ADCs taking kleptomancy

Okay so the first patch of preseason needs some balancing? What's new?

-Mages go to lane with 20 armor

So? You could get Taste of Blood and have a TON of sustain. As this procs off ALL damage not just auto's.........

Just wanted to point out:

Level 30 Players Who Own Less Than 50 Champions.(the majority of lol players) Level 1-30.

Those aren't complaints, they're just titles separating complaints different groups of players have.

This post is laughable. What support runes? Aery? The BE i agree with. But rune changes are fine. Since you cant dump BE into runes its actually better as dumping BE on a rune page gives you more value than 3 lifesteal quints(2050ip per friggin rune remember?). Once riot nerfs and buffs keystones everything will be the same. Just have to wait for rune changes then champs can be balanced accordingly. There isnt blatant outright steamroll champs (besides twitch and sona) for the first time since the games creation. You barking up the wrong tree. If u wanna get mad address the fact that ppl can play for 3 seasons and not have every champ, VGUs are needed for several champs but new champs keep pumping out and that urgot doesnt have star gaurdian skin. If you dobt like it play dota
