Right now the client seems to have some issues on lower spec computers, does this mean we need to buy better computers? (By issues I mean it's pretty laggy and I've almost "dodged" games because of the frame drops on it.)

I love what your doing on the client, I have NO complaints whatsoever, but I do have a wish:

Please add Item Sets back and Normal Draft. Blind pick is super toxic and hard to play the role you want, I'd wait an extra half hour just to play draft.

And item sets may not be used at higher elos (because people memorize), but when I was newer to the game I NEEDED them, I relied on them to build properly.

Are you planning on adding back the option to have bots in custom games?

As a member of the society I would love to see the points on your top three champs when clicking on your profile tab, this would look prettier instead of having to hover over it to find it. I personally think this would be cooler for those of us who work on our champions mastery points. Thank you for the taking the time to read my comment and I am looking forward to seeing if my prayers are answered. :D thank you again!

Can we have a way to hide the friends list? I keep minimizing the whole client trying to close it lol ALSO ITEM SETS PLEASE ITEM SETS ARE A HUGE PART OF MY LEAGUE EXPERIENCE.

After downloaded the new client and after I click launch it just takes me to a black screen. I tried reinstalling the game but that doesnt work. does anyone know how to fix this?

I cant open my game...why?

I never thought moving the username/password stuff to the right side of the client would put my life in tatters. I was wrong. Put it back to the left, so everything can make sense again.

Where on earth can I create custom item sets in the client?

New Client UI Theme is awful and I hate the new L icon. I had to instantly alt f4 the new client 30s after trying it out and using the chat out of disgust.

plz allow you to view your friends list while in draft

Beware! 15kpbs average download speed (P2P enabled) with no way to cancel. If you close and re-open client, it will start downloading again without asking (and without resuming where it left off).

This is just my personal opinion but is there any way to minimize the friends list. It makes the screen feel incomplete because I always feel the friends list is blocking something. Not sure how everyone else feels about this or if its just me

How do I stop the download for the beta? After looking at comments about potential problems, I would like to stop the download. I love league but I am afraid that I wont get to play anymore because of this beta version until fixed. I Realize that it is a beta but I don't want it anymore. Please help me rito. And my internet provider charges me for how much I use, and downloads hurt it the most. I read that it takes hours, and it is not worth it. Please help me, I need assistance but most of the time barely anyone replies to my question. Please read my question and help me how ever you can (if you can).

I want to be able to stream league but I have OBS and the new client can't be viewed in OBS at all for Game Capture which is mainly what I use, I try to avoid using Monitor Capture because its less cpu usage for me. Please consider this.

Thank you

I like the old version more, the new beta has a lot of bugs, such as replaying the recording for the game and errors when you exit (the game stays on with its sounds and everything) and the new beta is way more complicated and inefficient

Drunk Red Panda11/17/2016, 7:52:46 PM4 votes

I'm not a fan of the new client. The old client looked better and was more organized.
