It leaves people like me feeling like complete shit after the event. We both know how often Yas gets banned which reduces his window to usually only people who main him, and hes a lot easier than riven is to play. You always come back and become this insane dps much sooner than you should even when falling behind.

No where near as many people ban riven like they do Yas and I feel like the event was total bullshit based off of shoddy factors. Not to mention how hard I tried to get all the icons and everything for my main.

It makes the losers feel like shit. Shoulda just left it anonymous. Its not a campaign-style game. I feel so bad and sick now, I'm just gonna stick to WoW for a few months. I'm incredibly disappointed because Yasuo's state of balance and high ban rate (which actually HELPED him in the contest, gives him a smaller pool to grab data from) completely had a bias during the whole event.

Sorry if I sound like I'm raging, but I feel really..... sick... almost a kind-of humiliated kind of sick.

Signing off! Riven

The play rates of Riven vs Yasuo weren't the only things that mattered. It was also the number of people who completed missions using their icons. We won't know for sure the percentage breakdown but we can't just assume that Yasuo won because more people wanted to play Nightbringer Yasuo than Thiccbringer Riven.

Plus, people got a bunch of free stuff from the missions so I doubt Riot will discontinue them (because hint: people like free stuff).

I played for two weeks ONLY to work for that icon, and now I feel robbed of my time and money. I deserve my icon Riot, thats not right at all. I dont care how many people played what champ.

Spending RP heavily impacted the balance of the bar, so more people bought Yasuo stuff. It wasn't as much who played for light/dark. From reading comments on the boards, people seemed to like Yasuo's icons and skin more. Riven's wasn't as original. Also, Riven's base icon was very poor when compared to Yasuo's.

I like this type of event with the missions, and personal want to see stuff like it for future events. Region x vs region z ect. Use icons and missions to make story results..they seem to be putting more effort into the lore of reworks and new champs, this is a great format to reap benefits from it for the community, and a possible pull for new player base because they want some kind of story involvement with the developing lore of league. I know I do.

Vs events are great. They make the community compete for something. There will always be losers and winners in competition. And if you cant stomach defeat i dont know why you are playing a competitive game.

Lets not forget that It wasnt based on Playing Yas/Riven. It was just who had which icons and who purchased things from what side of the event. Yasuo was the more popular side and therefore won.
