Names....literally ;-;

Why does changing names have to be so expensive? Or atleast make it so you can change your name once on the account! I've had this account for a couple years and I want to change it so badly....but I don't want to waste IP or RP where I can use those currencies for other skins or champions. Why do you make this so difficult for me Rito ;-;

Think about it this way In real life in order to change your "Name" you'd have to go to a government agency and pay a sum of $$ to have it changed

In runeterra i'd imagine its the same You're a summoner come to the league in order to support your faction ( Noxus, Demacia, ETC ) I'd imagine before you became a summoner you lived somewhere on this world within one of the many major cities ( Perhaps you're a yordle? Perhaps you're a freljordian ) anyhow I think you get my point its a lot of paperwork to change someones set name so the IP you pay is an incentive for the Summoners Institute of War to allow this name change ( Wouldn't imagine anywhere else you could go to change it as MOST and I empthasize the "MOST" of Runeterra seems to be in the medieval ages ) Perhaps the summoners institute of war gave you your summoner name as a way to address you ( a nickname of sorts ) and your user is your true name.. But w/e I'm getting off track Basicly its that expensive so people don't spam it and cause problems with the server ( could you imagine if 1000's of people swapped every 5 sec's ? )

The same reason a rune page is 6300 IP and the tier 3 Quintesses are 2050 IP
