The new HUD is an improvement

It's quite simple, really. They put a bunch of information (such as teammates, items, team kills and creep score) into the bottom right corner of the screen. Why is this such a big problem?

You guys honestly cannot move your eyes 2 inches to the right?

I saw someone complaining about the xp bar. It's exactly the same, only on the right side of your champions portrait, not under it.

The minimap is the same too, the only difference is that it has a more blue-ish color instead of a light brown.

The Teammate Unit frames are in an excellent spot right now, since if you look at the minimap (which you will probably do every 5 seconds) you can see your teammates! Wonderful isn't it?

Moving onto the cooldowns: I can understand if people don't like the bubble in the middle of your ability, and it makes harder for you to know when it's going off cooldown. You may not know this, but there are numbers too that can show when is your ability going to be available. Do you all have dyscalculia?

This is the usual "i dont like change" crap that we go through every time a new thing comes out, but this time it went way too far.

If they'd just move the K/D/A CS and Team bars back where they used to be, then I personally would be perfectly fine with it. However, it hurts me on the inside to have one side of the screen cramed with a fuck ton of things, yet there is all that unused space on the left side.

You said what's the problem with the HUD yourself, OP.

EVERYTHING is in the bottom right corner.


Too much information is no information.

It's definitely an improvement. Space is more efficient, ult CD timers for allies, less eye movements, etc.

It's just so damn different. It's almost like learning a new game... for the first few games. Once we get used to it, no one will care
