@RIOT Thanks for Everything You Do.

I just wanted to write this to say thanks to Riot, which no one seems to do at all.

After seeing the /dev post on Champion Updates, I kind of took a step back and looked at everything, here and coming.

You have given us a massive roster of really cool champs. While balancing may never stop, the new champs you push out are super awesome and make me remember why I play the game. Some are super powerful while some are not, but that is how these games work.

Every rework that you do is super awesome. While some people do not like the new Taric or Shen, most reworks other than that were super awesome, such as the Sion, Yorick, and the new Warwick reworks. I love these champs and their new kits and playstyles. Although they may not be perfect, you did a super amazing job, and I can't wait for Galio, Urgot, and Eve. Your class updates are super needed and usually really good. You kind of miss the mark with some champs and they are almost always unbalanced, but once you get them settled (sort of), they are super cool.

I am not a regular buyer of skins. However, I was looking at some of the skins and was surprised on how many amazing skins are out there. I love the Project and Warring Kingdom skins and am a massive fan of the Bloodmoon skin line. I have Bloodmoon Yasuo and Kennen and will be buying Jhin when he is released. Some people see the fact that you put so many out as evidence that you only care about the money, but I see a company that needs resources to provide a thriving game for it's community.

While your game modes are a bit lacking, (fucking bring back URF), you put a lot of effort into them to provide a fun alternative game for the more casual players. However, it is the simple gamemodes that everyone likes. URF, One for All, and Hexakill SR are some of the most well received game modes, and you should learn a lesson from those. We don't need to have only half the map or a massive Xerath and a cool buff for a gamemode to feel fun. We just need 80% CDR and no mana costs.

Communication is one of the things that you said you wanted to work on, and I feel like you did a really good Job going about it. It will take some time to accomplish and there are a few issues that people need transparency on, but Ask Riot handled that pretty well.

Every time I go on the boards, I see negative post everywhere. While those might be the issues at hand, there is not much positivity and thanksgiving.

So thanks Riot.
