Give Influence Points a Meaning Again!

I have been playing League of Legends since season 1. Throughout my countless times of playing nonstop Customs to ARAMs, to ranked and normals, I have found myself in a deep deep ocean of Influence Points! So many people saying I don't have this champion, I need new runes.. and here I am sitting on 100k+ IP and nothing to do with it.... All champions bought, all necessary runes bought and maxed rune pages. What am I supposed to do with all this IP?

Here are some Ideas!

I ask Riot and the Community to please help....Let's brainstorm ways of giving a new meaning to Influence points, otherwise I am just playing to increase my skill....which is awesome! Come on now, I need something to livin' up the party.

I have thought of some ways which can benefit those who accumulated massive amounts of IP and ways they can give IP to others and use for themselves!

#1 - Skin Charges

  • Players can use IP to purchase a Skin Charge. What this is, is a function that allows players to have 3 times they are able to use a skin they choose during a game. Ex. They spend depending on type of skin 500 IP - 1k IP, on any skin they choose and can use it during 3 matches of any type.

  • This allows players to test out skins that they are maybe thinking about getting and just maybe have more fun! This can prevent our refund situation of people buying skins,champs etc. because of course multiple reasons.

  • Of course these prices of IP can be whatever they choose, BUT HEY at least we get to use our Dusty ole' IP.

#2 - Team Bundles

  • Players are able to buy a skin bundle for their current team, whether its a pre-made or just a normal game having fun! Ex. SKT skins, one person can use 2k+ Influence Points (example) to allow their team to use a certain type of skin.

  • You know how rare it is to have a team full of ninjas! Or mafia or for any holiday! This can create a lot more fun for players and of course USE THAT IDLE IP.

#3 - Lobby Temp Skins

  • Players in lobby are able to buy using Influence Points a skin for that game for any player on their team!

  • You don't know how many times I see kindness in a lobby of people not letting trolls be trolls and ruining the game for others. Not only just for that reason, but how cool would it be to be allowed to just give to other players! Same idea with #1 for it's just for that game!

Just remember all these are temporary, just for that one game. Or number of games if using charges!

As you can see, I have gotten so bored with my IP, that I just continue to change my name, because I am tired of looking at that IP just stacking up.

Please give any ideas or comments! Thank You!!

Rito should add a lottery for those people. "Sink your extra ip here!"
