I just bought the 10 boxes and keys. iam not sure how this is supposed to be discounted like riot said but it seems to me like it cost more to use it or around the same to just buy the skin you want direct??? perhaps iam using this wrong or dont fully understand it but iam not trying to bitch id just like other players thoughts on weather this is a good deal to buy or just a waste of 2000 rp and nothing to show for it.

Crafting isn't supposed to be a deal (particularly when you buy the chests rather then earn them). It's just a fun way to unlock stuff without actually having to spend money. They said so themselves in the FAQ that the fastest and best way to get a specific skin is still to buy it directly

If you want a good deal, just get a smurf to level 10 then put RP on it and gifts your main mystery skins. I tested the new Hextech chests earlier today, it suck if you own all champs and over 550 skins. http://www.auplod.com/u/auldop7753c.jpeg http://www.auplod.com/u/uopadl6d63e.png

I bought a bunch of chests, and honestly, I spent several thousand RP and I'm happy with what I got. The random made it fun, and somewhat risky, but once I cash in all of what I've got, the end result will be quite a bit more than I put in, and I like most of the skins I got. But the purchased chests are bonus. The real value is in earning them.

Um... I think you're missing the point...

The idea is to earn chests through play, hence what you get from them is free. They have extra chests/keys available for if you have one or the other and want to finish off an item that you have materials for just sitting around in your crafting store.

the chests are free. you get shards through games. where is that NOT a deal?

You're problem is that you spent money on it.

Buying them is a fun way to spend RP if you have an awkward amount like 200 RP, so you can buy a key. Also they're a chance that you can get a LEGENDARYYYYYYYYYY!
