The new HUD, new music, and new announcer MAKES EVERYONE FEEL ILL

It all gives me one big headache. The music is terrible for lack of a better word, the new theme isn't ambient, and my brain pays too much attention to this new theme's poorly developed musicality throughout my in-game experience. On top of that the new announcer's pirate accent is TERRIBLE, did riot actually pay someone for that? Finally. the HUD is so confusing and BIG. I minimized old HUD to see more of the field and i loved it, now the new HUD at its smallest size (1 percent) is as big as the 100 percent old HUD, HOW CAN THAT BE? The new update gives me a headache, it makes me sick. This game isn't even fun to play anymore. In conclusion. my middle class self didn't invest hundreds (I repeat, HUNDREDS) of dollars into this game for Riot (#RIOT, RIOT PLEASE SEE THIS POST) to overpay programmers to create a TERRIBLE HUD, for riot to overpay "music producers" (in quotations because are they really?) to create an amateur (not to mention very, very busy) in-game theme (furthermore, simplicity goes a long way in video game music, especially background music for an already intense game, it is counterintuitive to having stress-free gameplay; busy music is intended to set the summoner up for failure by taking away attention from the GAME). It would also like to mention that the new in-game music cannot be reverted to the old ambient music (which NEVER gave me a headache) nor cannot we revert the announcer to the old, female announcer (which EVERYONE I know liked because she was so good at telling you that an ALLY HAS BEEN SLAIN or that an ENEMY IS LEGENDARY. I can write an entire book on why the new HUD, new music, and new announcer MAKE ME FEEL ILL. I would gladly write book the size of War and Peace to elaborate on everything I have mentioned so that my point can come across, or is it not clear?

Very Respectfully,

Here's a tissue for your tears.

Also, my honest opinion; I like the new announcer, it's a fun change. And also i'm getting used to the new HuD already, it's pretty handy compared to the old one. And lastly, i like the groove of the new music, kinda wish we could choose between tunes in the menus.

One player thoroughly satisfied here.

P.S.: If that's all it takes to give you a headache, you need to see a doctor bro.
