Events like these are about as restrictive as they are fun.

COME PLAY LEAGUE AND EARN REWARDS.

But you can only play this role. On this game mode. And you have X amount of time to reach this goal. And then you have to wait a whole week for the next goal to become available.

Seriously guys. Some of us have assignments and study to do. Don't make us choose between assignments and getting LE rewards.

Please make the next event less restrictive. You didn't even allow Jungle Monsters to count toward the 500 minions goal.

Don't forget that you aren't allowed to play Gangplank, so if you're a GP main tough luck.

Riot: "Shhhhh peasant, we still know you'll play it anyway."

This isn't Marvel Puzzle Quest. It's not a new champion you're playing for. It's just an icon. I have a bunch of icons from previous events, and I don't even use them.

Yeah, but LE Skins and Icons are like candy to people like me.

? There aren't any role restrictions. The only required game modes were ARAMs (which has no roles), and the new game mode (were your role is only restricted by the other members of your team, like any other match). And you're only limited to them for a portion of the goals.

You can still do the first two if you haven't gotten them yet. I assume you only have to finish them before the event ends.

For the 500 minions goal, just play 2 bot games as Heimer and then go back to doing whatever you want.

There was a goal that was 500 minions for one of the Graves Icons. This meant that both Jungle and Support Mains were at a significant disadvantage.

And yeah, that's the other issue I had. Riot puts these big goals in place, then allows people to do them in bot games.

Play bot games then, they count towards the minion goal.

I'm going to get a lot of flak for saying this but...

No. No they shouldn't be. If you can invest time into League, then you get rewards, if you can't, then you don't. You shouldn't recieve stuff for free if you didn't do much to deserve them.

Sorry, but we don't need every prize to be participation awards
