I'm not a fan of Riot
And I hate some of their decisions but one thing I love about them are the IP parties. No it's not for the IP (20k unused -.-) but it's for the friends you make in the process. The chatrooms "Party IP Week" 1-30 are full and people are all just having fun. Last game I played Shen for the first time after rework and I laned against this Tank Teemo. He outclassed us all (420k Mastery explains it) but my team didn't flame. We just made jokes about how many ways we can kill a Teemo. We did 5 in that game.
But jokes apart, thank you Riot for this initiative. I wish there was a way to do this every month so people can come together. Maybe even something like that Pool Party promo. Thanks again. [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]
