A Great Idea for League of Legends, please click

PLEASE UPVOTE, I BEG!

So, pretty much this is how it goes. we all know how frustrating it is to get those 6300 champions. how many games we have to play to earn that ip just for a character you might or might not like. so the idea is SUPER SIMPLE. we just up the amount of ip earned per game. wow what an idea. riot are planning on removing paying for runes which is "too sweet", so know we get to only spend on champions, which is GREAT. but, you know what would make things better? If the fact is we only got to play for say 2 games to buy us a 450 ip champion. lets make first win of the day a whopping 380 ip.

Yes, you read that, 380 ip. and a win more than 210 ip. we can keep a loss around 71 ip because that's fair. People don't have that much time especially if they're starting off. So what this would do is allow casual players to have way more fun knowing they only have to win like 20 games to get themselves a 4800 ip character.

What I want to discuss is how much more fun this game would be for new players if they could spend more time getting their champions. I would say that this feature with all that bonus ip is on the fine line of genius and idiocy. The reason it's genius is because of the less stress involved with deciding what character to buy. league of legends has so many characters all so distinct. Making ip easier to obtain would actually allow players to get better. lets say people buy a 3150 character like Corki Corki . this will give the player at least 10 games of Corki to decide whether they are good at them or not. Time for basic math of these 10 games the player has a first win of the day, 380 ip. 4 wins, 210(4), 840 ip. 5 losses, 71(5), 355 ip. add these together and of those 10 games the player would have nearly 1575 lp which is halfway to another 3150 ip champion anyways.

The point I'm trying to get at is, if Riot decides to bump the ip per game amount up, then I'm sure that they will have:

  • more casual players
  • more high elo players
  • less complainers about "over powered" characters
  • people able to accept being auto-filled cause of their champion pool
  • more new coming accounts knowing they can get good faster

on the side note, a way to implement these bonus ip numbers could be in normal games where people are to practice, making ranked queue more serious and not for the equal ip gain as the practice area. This will enable people to practice more before ranked games and divide the casual and serious players into a healthy community.

Thank You for reading this post, please discuss what you think :)

I have no idea what you're even suggesting. It starts out where you're asking for more IP per game (which doesn't make sense, since they're reducing the number of places you can spend it), then it seems to be hinting towards a demo-system for champs, which already exists in the form of free week champions. Having easier to get IP makes sense if you need to buy runes and can't buy runes with RP - it directly affects your own ability in the game. But with runes going away, IP is a convenience feature only, since you can either sit and farm it up, or just spend money and buy whatever champion.

Also, this doesn't affect anyone besides lower leveled players. People in high elo almost invariably have already mastered their roster. Having more IP is nice, but it doesn't make sense from Riot's perspective, especially since more IP will be collecting dust as it is. I personally haven't spent Ip on anything other than name changes in months, if not longer.

yeah its a very messy post but, this is solely for newer players. new players are stuck with only 450 and 1350 ip characters along with the ftp champions. allowing people to get more ip that they need is actually really helpful. what I want is for new players to be able to experience the game with all the champions who they want to main, being able to buy the champions along the way testing out if they do or don't want that character to define your playstyle.

Now, your argument is the fact that veterans already have everything, yeah I get that. the number up top only gets bigger. which is beyond pointless. but that's why I referenced the fact that ranked queues can have nearly no ip gain making it for the serious players.

I would personally like a way to spend all that beyond extra ip, like buying all new characters for a year or something strange. but that's off topic

thank you for questioning my post, it helps me understand different point of views from different types of players

Riot gives you an inch and you ask for a mile.

They're already making Runes free which will give us more IP to spend. And they've said they are going to rework how you purchase content such as champions.

Also, begging for upvotes is a surefire way to get downvoted. (I haven't voted, and won't) You make yourself appear too desperate and people will think you are acting entitled because you ask for the upvotes rather than just present your idea and earn the upvotes based upon the idea's merit.

yeah, that's true. I was just thinking of a new idea. I was really salty cause I got my account removed for a false reason so when I restarted I couldn't afford any characters without being gifted. me saying this post is just trying to speak for those who can't afford rp and couldn't buy the characters they like and the meta ones.

the purchase content theyre talking about are gonna end up as bundles most definitely for rp

yeah I guess begging for upvotes isn't the correct way to post

I understand your frustration. I'm sure it sucks to have to start over from nothing.

Hopefully the new free runes system will help mitigate some of that.
