My Thoughts on the Preseason

I like the new rune changes, I like how IP is now converted into Blue Essence, but there are some problems. (Some may agree/disagree, but again, this is solely my opinion.)

1. It's now harder to buy champions if you are a new player/don't own most of them/don't play 24/7.

True, we were compensated and probably have a lot of BE, but how can you earn more to purchase champions,rune pages,Lvl 6/7 mastery icons, etc. What I have found out is that you cannot earn BE after playing a game, similar to earning IP after playing a game. The only way to earn BE is through leveling up and get a capsule each time you level up in hopes of getting more BE. However, champion shards are random and you might not even get as much as you hope for, and because leveling up takes some time, it will be hard for players who don't play a lot/still have school. To summarize, it's harder to earn BE for those who don't play a lot (because of school, work, etc).

2. You only get 2 rune pages if you don't purchase rune pages before

I myself have never bought rune pages, and I was hoping that the preseason will allow us to have more than 2 rune pages (like 20 masteries.) However, that's not the case. If you only have x amount of rune pages before the preseason, you will only have x amount of rune pages in the preseason, for example, if you have only 2 rune pages, you only get 2. The only way to earn more rune pages is through BE or RP (6300 BE for 1 rune page, 2600 RP for 7). Like I said before, earning BE is harder for some players, so in hopes of getting a couple of rune pages, it will take a while. You could choose to buy 7 rune pages using RP, but some cannot afford/can't purchase RP ($20 = 7 Rune Pages Bundle). My question is, why can't rune pages be like 20 Masteries? I know it will somewhat hurt Riot's business, but why does it have to be directed to this?

I feel like this preseason update hurts those who cannot afford to play a long as possible, including me (I have school), while it favors those who already have the champion/rune pages. I like the Runes Reforged and the new Blue Essence system, but there are some things that I don't favor (in my perspective, NOT ALL). Again, some will agree to this, some will disagree, so please avoid negative comments. This is my opinion, so don't hurt me. :D
