Riot says that every single player for them is equal. But that's a lie.

First of all, the thing that irritates me the most is what they had done with Blue Essence. Awards that you get from the capsules are completely random. One player can level up 7 times and his Blue Essence earnings will be bigger than other guys' who leveled up 10 times. Up to the luck. Earlier, the only element that truely mattered was whether you won the game or not. And it was fair. Now, you also get more experience when you win games, but experience leads to leveling-up, that gives you random rewards. Maybe Rioters thought that the opening part would be fun for the community. Sure, it would be, but three years ago, not now. This system is implied to every single new game and literally people are getting sick due to that. Instead of creating variety among games, all of them use the same method.

Another thing seems to be the punishment system, especially the Instant Feedback System. Using words like "open" "report" or "ff" seem to be a russian roulette. I have many accounts, and on every single of them i behave the same way - I am nice to the others as long as they are to me. On my main, i've been playing for over 5 years and I have never been punished nor warned. On my side account though, I got instantly perma banned (for being, as Riot called it, toxic and negative - yes, they consider asking players to report someone, when he admittledly breaks the summonsers' code, to make sure, that he will be penalized, as a toxic and demoralising behaviour). What's the thing that matters there then? Because I cannot understand. The ban that I've received was made by automaticly, though I never use extremly offensive words that may be recognized by the system.

The last thing I want to discuss about is randomness during the game, that Riot has lately extended by far. What I mean is Kleptomancy, that awards you randomly, with no real reason. Either you will get an item or not. Who cares, that it might change the whole game. Another thing is Zoe and her sick spell. People, especially in the higher tiers usually think carefully on their choices - tactics, summoners' spells and stuff. And there comes Zoe, dives you, gets barrier from minion. Clears the wave, gets teleport so she can be back in the lane in 15 seconds. But in another game, other player will keep getting Cleanse while laning against non cc champ. I've always thought League of Legends is one of the least random Esport games, since the only random things were the sequence of dragons and critical hit based on crit chance, but from what i observed, Riot clearly wants to change it.

Sorry for my english mistakes if I had made any, but I've decided to use the NA boards, since the european, especially non-english speaking seem to be ignored and they are not as popular as this one.

Let me know what you think about that. Halt

Mmhmm, they promised to rid the game of RNG, only to introduce more. Classic Rito hypocrisy.
