Blue Essence is still a joke

Lvl 20 and the only champion I've been able to buy is Vayne and I have 1500 blue essence left over. 0 champion shards 1 skin shard Better off just playing one game a day because it takes 20 games to get just as much as the first win

An account I had 4000 hours, bought every champ with RP (on sale) (1000$ in RP from tournaments) and a couple hundred skins couldnt afford to upgrade any more champions to mastery (600 mastery total) because hur dur gotta pay 8k blue essence per champ I want mastered.

#Here's my rant:

1. Riot took away the rewards of binge playing with the new blue essence/leveling system (goodbye weekend marathons of 70 games)

2. Riot took away community tournaments for years

3. Riot took away grand-strategy and macroplay in solo queue by shortening games to end in 4-5 minutes

4. Riot took away Custom item paths because they compensated hard nerfs with buffing items they are "supposed" to use

5. Riot decided to start overloading champions they make to have multiple hard cc's, multiple movement abilities, damage amps, untargetable/invisible, %hp damage, and some stat buffs, while being naturally tanky and damage dealing. Like who the fuck thinks s fun to play against as a non-tank melee?

6. Riot simply refuses to change cancerous designs so they're either nerfed to being useless, or sit there in the dark secretly being broken.

7. Riot makes some fun champions unable to be played in solo queue because LC$ (skill:effectiveness ratio)

8. Riot had the loot box system right, something no other company had done before, on release, then they went and fucked it because they figured they could make more profit at the expense of player's happiness. Happy customers spend more money, Riot.

9. Riot ties your ability to buy champions with your honor level. Get chat restrictions because you said "I'm retarded" and got autoflagged by their new and improved system? Enjoy never getting rewards for the rest of your account's life. I was honor 1 on my main for 9 months with no further restrictions.

Did Riot really just change it so that I can't see the enemy player's mana (when you left click and look at their portrait)? Taking away my ability to gauge my advantage over another player in lane? Or are they so incompetent that his bug has been out for 4 patches? Either way, retarded.

Don't get me wrong, they've done some good QoL changes in the game, like the new ping system, new UI, new map, mastery system, new client, etc etc. But overall, with every major change, frustrates me more and more. There's probably 2-5 other things I forgot to mention in my list but hey I'm just throwing it out there.
