@Riot: Thank you, for listening

I'm only recently returning, so I don't know how 'old news' it is that we're not only getting Solo Queue back, but a practice mode as well.

There's a lot I could say, and I'm sure it's already been said, so I'll just say my own thank you. I've complained about things before, but if I'm ever too much in the minority or if I'm pretty clearly proven wrong, I quiet down when I get used to the changes. Watching the way Riot handled things for the past year or so, though, had simply killed my drive to play the game at all. Too much 'trust us, we know what we're doing' amidst a deafening outcry of complaints. It really seemed like something had happened within Riot HQ that changed the way they saw us from fellow players to brainless consumers.

I don't know what made you guys change your mind, but I'll cling to the belief that (among other things) you finally decided to listen to the things your players were saying and to give our ideas a shot. I'm excited to play some Solo Q again, and try practice mode.

Thanks guys.
