My only problem with the new HUD Update..

So. I'll keep this short and simple. I'm not huge on the new HUD, but I get the feeling I'll get used to it. That doesn't bother me.

What DOES bother me, is the fact that the map is now tinted a blueish color, and it's darker than before. I dunno if it's because I'm partially colorblind, or what.. But the tinted map is much more difficult to see things at a glance, and it almost makes the entire screen feel darker when looking at it.

The rest of the update doesn't bother me at all, but that tinted map is just driving me nuts.

Just for the record, this is on the Rift only, Butcher's bridge map looks great!

The new surrender box looks like an star trek elevator counter.

I haven't played any norms where we tried to surrender, so I wouldn't have noticed I guess. I mostly play ranked, where only the map is different so far, and the darker tint on it is REALLY bugging me.

Idk why the put that blue screen on it, the old one was much better. Honestly the new hud is for the LCS people.

Well, the new HUD as a whole doesn't bother me. Took a game or two to get used to, but once you realize where everything is and such, it's kinda nice - Everything is consolidated, I can look at one general area of the screen for all of the info I could possibly want.

The map color change is literally the only part of it that bothers me.

I dislike how small the viewer is to see allies health, besides that its fine.

I suppose I wouldn't mind that being a bit larger, but overall it doesn't bug me. Probably because I don't play at a super high resolution, more of a middle-of-the-road setting, so things are a bit bigger for me than they are for a lot of people I think.
