Champion Refund concept.

Can we visit a Champion refund concept?

I own a lot of champions that I wanted to try and either I did not like them or they were eventually nerfed into a state of non-existence. I would like the option to refund champs I never play for a fraction of the IP cost it took to get the champ. like 50% would be more than enough.

I cannot explain how frustrating it is going into an Aram and getting saddled with a champ you wished you'd never bought. Likewise I hate having to dig through 30 plus champs in 15 seconds to find the one champ that i have really grown to like.

Please just take it into a consideration. The ability to refund champs that we own but wish we didn't.

Try owning all of them; that search bar at champ select starts looking more and more attractive.

In any case, ARAM will have its ups and downs. I'm among those that think that EVERY champion should be available for ARAM, or at least every champion owned by anyone on your team. There's been complaints about ARAM smurfs that buy only heavy poke or sustain champions specifically in order to have an advantage for ARAM.

I disagree, and here's why:

The thing about ARAM is that it's meant to be random, and reducing the pool goes against that. (IMO, ARAM should have EVERY champion available, not just the ones you own, but meh) In addition, other than in ARAM, owning more champions is never a bad thing.

If you mean bought with RP, I would agree with full refunds, but I don't think that should be the case with IP, simply because you can always get more for free, while playing the game.

I guess i can Agree with your ARAM post and it could become abusive to the extent where people only own certain champs for ARAM. So as you said they should make all champs available for ARAM.

However i stand by the desire to refund champs for a percentage of IP. I have several Champs that i thought would be fun however now i see no scenario in which i would play them. Mainly because they were not enjoyable. I'd rather not own them at all. And if i could refund them for IP I'd be more inclined to swap them for more runes than to purchase that champ again.

Riot already has a version of this for their runes. where you could reforge 3 that you no longer want for 1 random. I'm not even asking for that, How about we reforge 3 champs we don't want for 1000 ip.

The ratio can be horribly punishing for refunds. But i would rather have 1000 IP instead of Zac, Zilean, and shaco. Just as an example.

I agree with you. Though I usually only play ARAM. Like you said, there are some I bought that I thought I would like. There are some that I just really do not enjoy playing. I would like to always get to play someone who I at least enjoy.
