I don't know if its just me, but I would love to have an option to convert my remaining rp into ip. Having a little rp that can't be used to buy anything kind of irritates me because it essentially all goes to waste. Now, I am not sure how proportionally each rp would convert into ip that would be fair, but I just really hope this option would be added. Anyone else?
Having a small amount of RP left over is one of the main reasons they use RP and not just a $ cost. It's why you can't buy RP in the amounts that skins/champs typically cost. It's because they want you to have some left and for you to feel like it's wasted to encourage you to buy more. And if you somehow manage to get to zero RP, don't tell anyone because RIOT used to add 1 RP just to be funny, which it is though.
Literally pay to win.
Pay to win. Hell no even Riot isn't that dumb.
It already fucking exists. It's called an IP boost
That will make the game more pay 2 win. As of now the only game-changing item are runes which is only purchasable by IP, don't ruin it.
The reason they don't do this is because runes cost IP. If they introduced this people would complain that league was becoming a "pay-to-win" game and riot doesn't want that.
that would make lol a pay to win, the only thing you should be able to buy with rp is cosmetics
be consistent with your capitalization
it looks like you are asking for a RP to LP converter instead of RP to IP
I remembered a post with a use for leftover RP a while back so I went and found it.
The reason this isn't in the game is that it would be pay to win due to runes
i thought the title said RP to LP and I was like "Why tf does this thread have 37 upvotes?"
But RP to IP would be a good idea, but sadly it definitely won't happen XD
As others have mentioned, this would allow players to buy runes with real money and gain an in-game advantage over players who can't afford it, i.e. "pay to win". Not an option. IP boosts already exist, but at least those still require you to play.
Horrible idea. Keep that leftover RP, they will addup the next time you purchase. They don't go away. But putting a converter automatically turns this game into a pay2win. Having leftover RP is no reason for a whole new feature to be implemented, one that would have a profound neggattive impact at that.
maybe to buy runes, but that is about all you can buy with Ip only.
How about Ip to rp?

"Can't buy power"
I just want more ip in general lol
they are trying to make money you know
I wouldn't mind getting the opposite: an IP to RP converter...
IP boost, that's all you can get in that direction as far as that goes.
I think the only thing you can't buy with RP is runes, though. Unless I'm forgetting something.
Just sit on your RP and wait for a skin to come out, I guess.
I think they don't let you insta-buy tons of IP because they don't want a small number of extremely wealthy people using it to dodge bans and lost rune pages. Otherwise, I really wouldn't care about people buying a level 30 with full rune sets and champ pools - anyone can unlock these.
But if money could buy you a get out of jail free card, then a small number of people could dish out as much cruelty as they have dollars to pay for it.
At least, that's the only reason I can think of why you would be able to purchase IP/XP boosts but not IP or XP directly.
Throwing out the fact that they want you to buy more, let's show you how bad the conversion would really be if they implemented this.
Let's take, for example, champions, which are purchasable with both IP and RP.
Tahm Kench costs either 6300 IP or 975 RP. Using that as the ratio, you would have a conversion rate of just under 6.5 IP per RP. So take 6 IP per RP, at best. Are you really willing to have your RP multiplied by just 6?
