Ok, I dont have a whole lot to say about this but these are my thoughts.
I was super excited about the IP Boost, Riot said that for normal queues you would get 150% for a 5 man premade which was great, but to celebrate the new dynamic queue you would recieve a 450% boost for playing that mode.
Am I the only one that is a little upset that this queue was disabled for the entirety of this IP Boost event and I could not take advantage of the 450%?

QueensIayer1 votesThat doesnt do me a whole lot of good considering I purchased a timed ip boost and a win ip boost for this week.
TheCeeJay1 votesAll of those boosts are flat amounts that are given. I'm pretty sure the only thing the bonus IP weekend did is increase the base amount of IP received after winning a game. They wouldn't increase the amount of IP received from an IP boost of any kind.
So say you win a game of Summoner's Rift Blind Pick and receive 100 base IP for the game. For the IP Boosts you receive 143-145 IP per boost. If it's your first win of the day you'll get 150 extra IP. If it's a matchmaking game you get the extra 15 (I think?). So in total you got 100 + 143 + 144 + 150 + 15 = 552 IP. With the bonus IP event that happened, assuming you queued for something that uses the new champion select with 4 friends and every other aspect was the same you would have received: 100(4.5) + 143 + 144 + 150 + 15 = 902.
All the other bonuses stay the same, but the base amount is what is being multiplied.
QueensIayer1 votesI dunno, with both boost and a 150% 5 man boost I was getting 1600 ip per win.
