Hextech key fragments only have a 12% drop chance every 50 wins..........

I dont know about the rest of you but this feels like way too low of a drop chance. Out of 50 games I earned 5 chests and 6 keys fragments (2 keys) One chest had a skin and the other one had a garen shard. So with riots 1 to 1 win loss ratio that means out of 100 games each about 35 minutes on average i have earned 2 keys giving me 1 skin shard and 1 Garen shard (a 450 ip champ). So with the average of each game being about 35 minutes times my 100 games that means ive gotten 2 keys in 3500 minutes or roughly 58 hours of gameplay. 2 keys every 58 hours of gameplay? And that is to unlock a useless Garen champion shard and one skin shard (not even a whole skin just a shard) 58 hours of gameplay.

Please Riot Increase the drop chance or give us whole keys with the 12% drop chance instead of 1/3 a key. I know you want people to get frustrated an buy your keys but I refuse to give into that money scheme.

I do this on every hextech complaint post.

It's free shit. You do nothing to earn them. You play the same League you did 5 months ago. Now, Riot sometimes adds something nice to your account. You literally have no grounds to complain. Enjoy your free stuff.

The drop rate for key fragments is a curve, not a line. With each fragment you earn, the chance to earn your next one goes down slightly. This number resets roughly every thirty days after you earn your first key fragment.

We wanted to give players who didn't play as frequently a good drop rate for keys, without making it feel like farming was mandatory if you wanted keys.

Give it a few months, keys will catch up to you when you stop trying to play every champ in the game for an S (not everybody has crazy champion pools).

http://imgur.com/V6sW5q0 I expect to have loads of chests built up for awhile but I also don't really think I'm going to be unhappy with it overall. Sure My OCD kicks in for not having keys, but its not like I'm losing anything. Just wait, knowing if I just play I'll eventually get them when rito wants me to get them.

THEY ARE GIVING YOU FREE STUFF. STOP ACTING LIKE AN ENTITLED BRAT.

Serious. "omg rito you no give me enough free skins wtf." Do you realize how childish this sounds?
