Why do we even need to level up w new accounts anymore?
To get to level 30 you need over 100 games just to play in ranked which is a massive gate already
If someone is legit new, no one is going to invest that much into a game just to see if they like it to finally get to play a real game, on top of other barriers to entry. It sucks for new players where lots of friends I played WoW from quit and said fuck this levelling and lack of diverse champs. They arent going to dump $$ into the game to buy champs or boosts either when they dont even get to see what it's like to properly play until after weeks of grinding, so why put invest into something that's such crap at the early stages?
If they aren't new they're already gated by having an extremely limited champ pool. Right now you'd get a handful of shards and something like 11k BE from 1-30. Doesnt even get you enough for a proper champ pool so either they need to spend $$ to buy the champs or play for weeks to grind BE anyways, so what does the leveling to 30 even accomplish?
If exp is here to stay
- Let those with maxed main accounts buy exp boosts for alt accounts. Basically turns excessive useless BE into exp on another account at a lesser rate
- Let us buy exp in the RP store for levels 1-30 so people dont need to pay shitty 3rd party botted accounts who are even risking bans just to skip the atrocious leveling phase. More $$ for RITO in a market they havent even touched
- Otherwise just scrap the leveling altogether
