New First Win of the Day Reward System (ideas)

Peeinbed·12/6/2014, 1:37:39 AM·19 votes·1,507 views

The current First Win of the Day Bonus (will shorten to FWB) currently works on the system of a 22 hour reset cycle, and when available, the next win will reward the player with 150 extra IP.

The FWB system is designed to be rewarding, and it encourages people to play daily. However, the 150 IP bonus is very dull, boring, and moreover it is pointless to those who already have all the champions and the runes.

What may improve the FWB system is a continual reward system.

  • The IP bonus is reduced to 50 ~ 100,
  • an RP bonus is added around 2 ~ 4,
  • those who were able to complete the FWB for a consecutive number of weeks, or even months, the person is rewarded with an exclusive skin, which is not available in the store. (Or a loading screen Badge or Icon, etc.)

This will not only encourage the players to play daily, but this will allow the dedicated Riot and League of Legends fans to show off their exclusive skins.

While the schedules of some may handicap some people with the consecutive days of FWB system, and adjustments need to be made Once the player is rewarded with a "free skin" (not from purchasing RP/Spending real money/Gifted) It will be incredibly rewarding, and something to truly show off.

Of course, there will be some balancing regarding RP, IP numbers but just broaching this idea for the people to consider.

If there are mistakes, generally wrong things, or disagreements please feel free to point them out.

And share your own opinion, and let Riot know WE NEED A NEW FIRST WIN BONUS SYSTEM!!!!

Happy Tumbling :)

The first win bonus isn't bad as it is, but I can see why someone in your position would want it. I don't have all of the champions and/or runes, so I still have use for IP, which makes this idea slightly less appealing because I would like to have more IP... BUT I do like the idea of getting very little RP. Even the small amount you suggested is enough to encourage me more to play every day (even though I do already.)

Suggestion Modification: You get 150 IP for first wins as normal, but when you unlock every champion you get an exclusive icon and/or profile boarder for your achievement. After you get that achievement, you start to earn 4-8 RP for getting your first win instead of extra IP. c:

What do you think?

Love the idea but I think that the first win bonus could also be tailored towards new players. Like if they are below a certain number of champs or below level 30 they unlock a free rune every 5ish days. This way it rewards for playing consecutively and also helps removes the biggest noob trap (level 1/2 runes) and makes runes easier to get.

I like the idea, but i think it can be achieved too quickly. I think it would be better to have it like Marvel Heroes. they have a daily reward just to logging in and i feel it could be use in this game as well. Have it give IP, then after a couple of weeks/months maybe give a small amount of RP, then maybe in between give runes/boost to again help make people play daily! Then after a couple months make it a border or icon, then after a couple more months-year have it unlock the skin.

This would help to the point where it would be difficult to abuse. since i can see if we get RP too quickly/often then people will just make a bunch of new accounts and use those RP to gift themselves! Again good idea, but needs to be worked on!

Well, I never did agree with "Don't fix what isn't broken" so I suppose it could be interesting to making FWB better.

Honestly I think giving out RP is in general not the best solution, even such low increments. The idea of summoner icons and similar bonuses though, I'd be interested in that. But srs, keep the 150ip, I only play a few games a day, I'll never afford the new champ by the time their price is bumped down to 6300 in time without it.

reducing the IP bonus makes it an even more impossible task to unlock all of the champions, and Riot's best bet at making more money is to increase their player base. Having an insurmountable obstacle like buying 123 champion and then also removing a large amount of your daily IP income is really not that enticing to a new player. I DO like the idea of possibly doing some sort of increasing returns thing, where the more days you play in a row, the more you earn as a bonus, capping off with a small amount of RP or something like that. An exclusive skin would be ok... but having a system that rewards rare items (like skins) is the same kind of issue that the old RAF system had except instead of spamming accounts, they will just use the bots to farm skins.

The exclusive prize for consecutive play sounds awful though. Oh you had a power outage/to go to the ER/a day trip/the flu/tons of work to do? Sorry time to start over.

I kinda disagree for the RP gain since that can be abused by botting for farming RP.

I think they should do something like quests that give you IP. For example, win 2 ARAM games etc...

I don't know about the Skin, or the RP, honestly, it sounds like a loss of cash t Riot, and therefore, something they wouldn't really be interested in.
