Let's Make It Easier To Get Champs/Skins/Icons

Yeah sure, we can complete missions for essence, chests, keyfrags... ect. But You know we usually have periods throughout the season where there are zero missions. Now this is aim'ed towards level 40 and under.

Bring back earning ingame currency at the end of every match. So we won't have to wait until we level up or play 10+ more games to get a 3150 champ. So many times I've been stuck with 50+ under the amount needed for a champion only to have to wait for a level up to get essence. Sometimes you can't even get essence after leveling, you get a capsule with a cheap ass champion that pulls the gamestop card on us and gives us so little for it. I know Riot wants to keep their players playing longer, but that's not a good idea for new comers. Who want to get all the characters or their favorite asap WITHOUT spending money. Money... Is that all you're really focused on?

Why take away earning ingame currency at the end of every game? Oh it's to get players to play our game longer. Riot will not say yes to that because they don't want us to know how their BUSINESS runs.

Also why is orange essence a thing if you can't even use it. Sure you can wait until you get a chest but why make an ingame currency available to unlock the shit you ALREADY had to unlock from a chest? That's like paying a cashier twice. Once to get the shit available and once more to get them out the store. Some people pay for chests and get ward skins when all they want is a champion skin or a chance to get a good champion for cheap.

Can we make skins (champion, icons, wards... ect) and chests available through blue essence? I mean shit, if you're gonna force your players to play the game longer to unlock the shit they want, how about have them do that but be able to get anything? Longer grind for the stuff they want.

You can still use that shitty business model you have to control consumers and still have all the braindead consumers happy because hey, they know if they grind for a couple days, without paying money they can acquire that skin they always wanted but were too broke to pay for.

Or don't because you are too worried about nothing. Shit if you bring back wining currency after every match, people may start buying IP boosts again (blue crapssence now) . > . . . . . .

[slayer-jinx-catface] [slayer-jinx-wink] Up to you Rito do what you choose. You may not even get to see this post or just flat out ignore it because someone that's not you has a great fucking idea.

P.S. This is gonna go in gameplay because the whole point of playing the damn game now is to earn ingame currency to get what you want. Gotta kill this many creeps and players to get this expensive item. Gotta grind this many days and kill so much time to get this expensive item without having to break the bank (younger players don't always have their parents buy them what they WANT)

I sure 'love' the buy a chest to unlock a card that you have to buy again to use it system

So

If you're not willing to pay money for cosmetics then you can just fuck right off. Riot doesn't run on happy thoughts and butterflies, and cosmetics don't affect your overall gameplay.

However, I do think that champions should be easier to obtain; but, free rotation exists and I think that it really helps in that regard. It's a test-run for a champ, a try-before-you-buy. On the other hand, I've leveled up an account and it was pretty easy to get new champs. You level up fast, and your first several levels literally give you champions (and sometimes runes and summoners, you know) and after your free champions it gives you shards. Which you can either disenchant or upgrade to permanent for much lower than normal. I even think that low-level accounts have cheaper upgrade costs.

Point being, sure it's hard to get Thresh on a new account, but that doesn't mean that you can't save up and learn how to play the game by playing free rotation while you wait. I actually think that it's even easier to get champions now, seeing as the old system only gave you around 90 IP for a win (excluding first win of the day) and was a total grind, while this method gives you about 1260 or so for each level up or more if you're lucky. Some shards disenchant for around that amount.

Do I get stuck with 6260 BE sometimes? Sure, but that's a small price to pay for being able to buy champions for less and cash in on my own terms. Plus, the new first win of the day gives you 50 BE and 400 xp, which fixes your problem of being 40 BE away from a champ.

ABOUT PREMIUM CURRENCY To maintain a stable ecosystem while making money, premium currency is introduced. And premium currency needs to have value. Taking away value from premium currency (IE making chests available for BE instead of RP) you ruin the game in a fundamental way. Here's a video on that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sumZLwFXJqE
