"Hey all, ...Some of our more competitive players requested the the option to hide some of the less subtle movement on Summoner's Rift. We added the option to disable things like butterfiles, dragonfiles and the water wakes to help competitive players focus on what they care about, the gameplay...

Thanks! ~Riot JxE"

So you're telling me people get distracted by pixel butterflies when they're in a team fight? That's some serious ADD going on there that should be checked out.

Yeah, I laughed when I read that. It would have made way more sense if they said they were adding it as an additional option that could be turned off to help players with weaker PC's, but to claim it's distracting people from the game is a little absurd.

If anything there should be an option to hide emotes rather than just mute the audio from muting someone. Emote spamming to bm would be much easier to handle that way.

Well perso i think it a nice effect and should be in competitive game to since it what i would call battle area effect really small yah but it a effect and if you can't know what is a bird or a bug well too bad may be you should play normal.

Except it's a real issue. And what is wrong with having options? YOU AREN'T FORCED TO USE THIS OPTION! And it's not that hard to implement either afaik (just don't render the models or hide the models.)
