The new player experience (outside of behavior) is pretty good

I recently made another account because I wanted to learn Nasus without getting stomped every round. Now matchmaking puts me with other smurfs and the occasional new player (which is when I do try to keep it down a little and let the newbie play a little without being punished a ton in lane) but that's not what I'd like to talk about here.

Have you guys recently made a new account? You get so many free champions right off the bat. And it's not just some 450BE champs like Annie, I got Illaoi, Ekko, Thresh and some others. Not only that, you get another 6300BE for playing on 6 different days and a skin on the 7th day.

Only thing I wanna complain about is the tutorial. It's setting some REALLY bad expectations. The attackspeed on some champions (e.g. Ahri) makes it look like that'd be how she'll AA everywhere, so this might throw some new players off at first. Other than that it feels pretty nice.

Ikr? They recently changed it, and I was somehow sad that I didn't make my main account later to get that exclusive Poro emote XD

I'm actually a little mad that people are getting free champions I didn't just because they made their account later than I did. Pre-existing accounts should also be able to go through the new new player progression thing and get those free champions.

It's even better when event is up, random champ shards, I think you should be able to obtain 6 of them(you can get 300 tokens for free iirc), the amount of champs you can get on new acc is pretty nice.
