its already there so you dont have to work on it. where is the problem? there are more than enough people who want the old HUD. Just do it.

Edit: There are no arguments not to give us the option because you can CHOOSE which one you use. --> both sides are happy. wow.

God fucking bless, it's the same thing that happened when the old hud came out. Stop with this type of thread, it's useless, deal with the new HUD and stop complaining, plus Riot will not listen to you about this argument.

i heard it was something about the coding or space it would take up to leave both in.

would reduce performance or something like that. sorry, I'm a tech noob

It's because of coding and maintenance. Riot would have to devote an extra team to take care of bugs for each of the two HUDs should they arise, as well as make any minor adjustments that satisfy both as well as add clarity. This would include for any new champions or champion changes.

It would take up a lot spacing to have both in.

Stop crying. The same thing was said when the SR VU came out, so just get used to it. It's not gonna change back, they aren't going to spend the time to try and find a way for you to switch between the two, so just move on.

the issue is when they decide to change something that needs to be adjusted in the gui (like adding the dragon counter, or the DJ Sona button)

It would either result in the old gui not having the feature or them having to do double the work.

They're changing it on the pbe to have more things in the places they were on the old hud.

KDA in the upper right so far I believe.

Riot will give us options in the Future, but they just want us to give the new HUD a shot. If we're used to it and we STILL want it changed, we will have the option. If Riot gave us the option upon release, we wouldn't be accustomed to it and just stick with the old one. Let's face it, the new HUD provides better gameplay. There is so much open space now, so it makes vision easier. I had to rely on the mini map way too often and I didn't like it. Tl;dr : The only way people would use the new HUD is if they had no choice but to use it.
