Blue Essence

Hi, i am writing a general breif complaint about the Blue essence feature and just some flaws i see with it ( Keep in mind that i have 74k blue essence and had every champ before the release of the new system). i only have a few observations for glaring problems i see with the new system and here is what they are. 1.)They have given us math time and time again to explain the the levels 1-30 grind is the same in terms of blue essence to ip ( and i agree) however the problem i see with this is i dont believe they accounted for levels past 1-30 not to mention alot of the blue essence income stats are padded for 1-30 because they give you quite a few champions at certain levels that are all predetermined. 2.) the awful feeling of needed just a little bit of blue essence to get that champ you wanted for example lets say that you're saving up for a 6300 BE cost champion and after leveling up you have 6225 in stead of saying ok if i play one or two more games to get the 75 ip i need ( like the old system) i have to level up again to get the 75 Blue essence i need, now that doesn't seem awful considering you can get 50 blue essence from your win of the day and a decent amount of xp to level up faster however you would still have to wait an entire day or an entire level to get 75 BE in stead of playing a match or two to get the ip you need. Not to mention you're not guaranteed to win a game and get your win of the day in the first place. 3.) lets say you're level 105 this is easiest for me because i am currently that level and the client says i need 2880 xp to level up if i were to only use my win of the day (lets say i get in doing bot matches tp guarantee the win) i need to play about 6 games to get my next level on 6 different days ( games x 400 XP is about 2400 and then the and then you would be close with the xp you received from playing those games as well) and you level up and lets say you get lucky and get a 6300 champ shard and then disenchant it for the 1260 blue essence.This means you played the best way to get so after 6 games got about 1260 Blue essence which is relatively the same as the old system but this was split up among 6 days and only applies to level 105 and below and only applies to you getting a 6300 champ shard out of your champion capsule or some kind of equivalent roll now lets say you're really unlucky and you get 2 1350 champion shards out of your champion capsule after leveling, you get 540 blue essence for 6 games all of which you used your win of the day to be the most efficient way to gain of xp you played 6 games to get 530 blue essence and to level up. and this process would only continue to get harder as you level leaving the amount blue essence up to RNG ( no not the team). Now i know having said this it is possible to get the champion shards for the champion you wanted and getting a massive discount and getting the champion you wanted, however this isnt always going to happen and lets say that happens twice you get teh champion shard you want and make them a champion permanent and the next time you get the another champ shard you want (great right?) not really now you are faced with the decision to either disenchant the champion shard for the champ you wanted just to have to spend more on the champ ( because you spent all your a lot or all of your blue essence on the last champ shard you dont have any left to upgrade this one) or you disenchant it to get the blue essence either way you'll have to level up one or twice again just to hope you get a champion shard thats gives you a decent amount of blue essence and not a 1350 etc.) either way i think this new system is very inconsistent and does not feel very rewarding. the last thing i have to put this into perspective lets say you get one full champion every time you level you would still need to get to almost level 150 from level one. SOrry for the rant and of course these problems dont affect me becuase i have lots of essence from the old system. I still love this game GLHF! all in all i think its better for new players but worse for old/ current players.

Phew... I read it all. First, can you please put your text into paragraphs? It's pretty tough on the eyes. And I agree. Completely.
