New narrator announcement banners too distracting
Hey guys!
It's been a little while since we've had those new banners put out when an even happens on the Rift (allies/enemies dying, towers falling, doubles/triples, etc.), and I've officially decided that I don't really care for them.
They're flashy, they look great, but they're incredibly distracting. They immediately draw attention to the eye rather than what's happening in the game at the moment due to the bright colours. Of course, after a few days of adjusting, one becomes used to this and the colours themselves don't cause any problems anymore (new additions are always distracting for a while, of course).
However, the opacity and size of the banners DOES interfere with the game. There have been many times when I cannot last hit a creep from the blue side if the creep is on screen at the position where the banner appears and then my top laner gets a kill. The banner (or sometimes the coloured line below the text) overlays the minion health and before I know it, the minion is dead or I click blindly too soon. Those same banners can sometimes be distracting in team fight situations when you cannot directly see what you need to immediately click, which requires moving the camera; sometimes the time taken to move the camera can mean a kill lost or dying yourself.
I just wanted to hear some other feedback and see if I'm the only one thinking this way. Peace!
