Can we start getting more epic login screens?

Look at all the ones we go over the last year. All of them just a petty instrumental. In fact if you count all login screens, not just champions, only the Worlds login had actual music.

Now look at some of the older ones. Yasuo has an epic monologue and fight. Jinx and Vi have fantastic songs. Lucian has a monologue followed up by some really epic music. Thresh had a spine chilling choir. Diana's has beautifully sang song. Draven had a sick chant at least.

Come on Riot, enough with the generic instrumentals. At least toss in their champ select quote at the beginning. When I first started playing, the first thing I was ever greeted by was Yasuo's monologue. Imagine as someone who had never launched the game before, you see a lone Ronin, relaying his backstory, defeated attackers. It made me want to play ever more.

Now imagine if you first login was something like Vel'Koz's login. Generic Sci-Fi sounding music...

Vi and Jinx have full length songs. Yasuo got a monologue. Thresh has a choir that perfectly fit his theme. Draven's login, as simple as it was, was epic purely because of its chant. One fucking word over and over, that was all it took. I'm not even going to mention Diana again, because her login speaks (or rather sings) for itself. Riot obviously has the resources still, as we can see from DJ Sona. So why not put that little bit of extra oomph in. It would also make it a lot less frustrating during server issues.

Yesterday you know what I had to listen to during an hour wait period? Bard login... Needless to say that was muted. Imagine if that had been Jinx, Diana, or Vi. I would have gladly listened to it.

At least let Ao Shin (whenever he comes out) have an amazing login screen. After years of hype, he deserves it.

I wonder if they keep stats on how many people disable login animations and music and too many people were disabling it. So they don't consider it worth it anymore.
