I have an idea for the lore section:

The lore page background is the same boring one for every champion, why not spice it up. For example for the freljord champions make it sorta icy. For the shurima champions make it Egyptian themed!

I gotta ask. Garen

When is Tank Meta gonna stop?

Like really. Most AD and AP champs that have high damage output I.E ZED, Master Yi, Ekko, Yasuo either get their best Items nerfed or heavily nerfed themselves.

Not that I really play these champs much to begin with, but still.

It's coming down to point where if there's 3 champs that HP scale over 4K each, then you might as well be ready to play an hour long game. Tanks are becoming a rampant thing to the point where ADC's just get blown up because they have no way to survive an onslaught of these people Garen Nautilus Volibear Shen coming into team fights and leaving them only to shrug it off like it was nothing.

Also. Why did you make it now where smite is now viable option for people to exploit? Now I've seen people like these Bard Fizz coming in mid lane because of this demonic item here. item 3708

P.S

When's the new Championship skin coming out and who's gettin it??

My account was permatently suspended because league of legends gave me 4000 rp after i got out of a match so i bought fox fire ahri and now they are black mailing me saying i owe them 35 dollars like what the heck what kind of company does that to a customer and they can't say i won't spend rp who wouldn't spend free rp after i match i didn't know where it came from and they should give out notice saying random rp might show up on your screen just log out and log back so your account isn't suspended.

I would like to know.

What do you believe it takes to climb into the top tier and be noticed by teams? What do you think the professional players do that is necessary for them to win, and can those skills be brought into soloque. Or is the gap between lcs and soloque the fact that lcs is a premade team with synergy while soloque is 5 random people most of the time. Also, do you believe that the easiest way to climb is to use the "flavor of the week" champs and builds? Or to get really good at a few champions?

Hey, I know this is off topic, but as a support main I noticed supports are falling behind during the game and I think I my have an Idea of how to help. You could make item 2043 item 2044 item 2045 worth a small amount of xp. You could make some areas worth more than others like tri-bush, barron, and drag. You could make everything inside the walls of the home base worth zero XP to discourage people from buying a item 2049 and just blowing over and over it in the base to gain xp. You could up the price a little to discourage other laners from buying a over a item 1026 or other dmg items. You could also make it so that only people with summoner 3 / summoner 11 can purchase the . This will accomplish 2 things, it will encourage people to ward, and for supports to take over summoner 14 , summoner 13 or summoner 7 , and save the ADC the trouble of having the fight in the Champ select. The only really bad thing that can come of it is people all take summoner 3 and summoner 11 with item 2049 , Oh NOooo's too much vision..... said nobody ever.....and then the support would actually have to use the damn scanner more regularly as well. Also, Summoners aren't likely to let go of their gold for a if they can get a item 1026 for about the same!

I have an idea with turrets. Right now turrets have been made virtually useless. There is so many items and champs that render them completely and utterly useless. They do no damage to champions after level 6 and entire teams can turret dive without any form of a consequence. This has been a continual problem that I and many of my friends on league have seen as a problem with EVERY game not just a few. This goes for both our team getting dived and our team diving them. Though i do like knowing that I can do this with little to no consequence I also believe it is a completely unfair and unbalanced thing to have implemented.

The way I believe this can be fixed is by scaling the damage and armor that turrets have to the individual champions attacking it and the current level that they are at when doing so. Instead of have a fixed health of turret and armor of turret, have it be like a champion and level up as they do. That way, though making the game slightly longer, makes the game more skill based and allows people who had issues in the beginning to be able to safely catch up.

This was put in the game somewhat when you made the second tower give a shield at certain points in the game but was removed later on. I truthfully believe the shield was a bad idea but adding extra damage wouldn't be. It would discourage any of their team from just simply diving turrets to kill you and would give the tank on the team an actual place in team fights due to them also having been rendered useless with the new items and updates in the latest couple of patches.

What does everyone else think about this? I think it would be a good idea to do something like this so that it makes the game more challenging and makes you think twice about making that risky move.
