Add the ability to get 1 free champion of your choice upon reaching level 30.

It would make sense, as there are over 100 champs in the game, and it will also solidify people wanting to play the game more, if they know a few weeks ago a champ was on rotation that they really liked, and would give them further interest, etc.

This needs to be implicated.

3-4 ip boosts, verified email.

4 full rune pages.

only got 450, 1350, and 3450 ip champs, and only got half of the 1350, and 3450 ip champs, and this is in half a year or so.

I am not complaining massively, but I am slightly tilted that:

1: The purchasable ip boosts aren't very plentiful, it's pretty much doubling your ip gain for a few matches, and they are quite expensive for the few wins or time you receive, people sleep, have jobs, etc, they aren't playing 3 days straight, as much as they would love to.

2: The current state in regards to receiving free champs through chests is okay, but as someone who foresees a huge problem with bringing in NEW PLAYERS to the game, it needs to be addressed that some people play video games seldomly, if you aren't going to cater to them, then no one new will join.

3: Even receiving ashe or garen, and then 1 free champ at 30, is kinda crap even for these people. The implication here is to add this:

Free 450 ip champ at lvl 10

free up to 3250 ip champ at lvl 20

free any champ at lvl 30. (trust me, not everyone is going to pick a 6400 if there is a champ on there mind, and the people who aren't pro's, will try to remember fun champs they have played throughout the weeks on the free rotation.

This is what I recommend. The current state of the game for smurfs, and other experienced MOBA or League players, is okay slightly less IP than should be rewarded for wins, or something, but it's okay. The state of the game for anyone new, or trying to get a feel for the game is not very good, and is much more likely to push people out, regardless of wins or losses, what will hurt more is the fact that they can't experience the game in a slightly more broad manner (a few more champs). With the free premium chests, and 3 free champs, it still only gives someone 4-5 champs.

Look at the state of your game yo. I care, I am till here, I want more players, so I am proposing idea's.

I remember grinding my ass off just to get pre-rework Viktor as my first champion. It was S4 and I suddenly realized why the community dislikes assassins.

This sounds like a great idea, I hope they add it

Honestly I wouldn't be opposed to people just being given 7000 IP upon reaching lvl 30 as a 'quest reward' type thing. Or perhaps "1 free champion of your choice, and then an amount of IP equal to 7000 - that champion's price. Wouldn't want to make people think they 'have' to pick a 6300 champ.

If they did as the opening states, then everyone would just grab Yasuo then the boards would rage about him even more.

Ever played Garena LoL? They practically give out free IP/XP Boosts, champions, skins and ward skins every 3 months or so

I say this as someone who has tried to bring people into this game, but have stuck with other games due to that exact issue, and when they go look at prices, and see the RP, and see that you SEEMINGLY (SEEMINGLY FOLKS!) HAVE to buy them all with real $$$, so it turned him off immediately, I explained the premium chests, which he was okay with, but then asked about the essence, and I explained keys and chests and skins and etc and he laughed at the fact that he had to pay to gamble for in-game gear through some weird lock and key lottery system. I understand where he is coming from. I am presenting this as someone who tried to bring someone into the game, and presented a logical reason to not start trying to play.

hmm you should be able to get the champs for free via IP , i have all champs but kled and 95% of them i got via IP points. and the ones i got with RP was left over RP from buying skins or champs for friends that played the game that i gifted.

the only thing that i see is wrong with what you thought of was point number 2 riot sadly doesnt really give a crap about newer players and only really care about the low diamond/high plat - challenger players and what they have to say, especially the pro's, and thats why riot as a company focus league and patches around whats good in competitive play not normal games/ low tier ranked games

Every 10 levels give players a new Hextech Crafting item. Craft this into a Role-based Champion Permanent. SO, if you are gonna ADC, you can unlock 3 random marksmen for free (although Teemo and Kennen would be options by default, it should be possible to have it limited to traditional marksmen). Same for things like Midlane, Support, Jungle, and Toplane. You choose which role to get a random champion for. It wouldn't need the "unusual" picks like Mordekaiser Botlane or Karma Top, for example.

If bans go up to 5 per team, players need 4 additional champs before they can play ranked, so they would only need to obtain one more on their own to cover it. Free week rotation only gives 1 or 2 champs per role each week, so 10 bans would make it way to easy to ban roles out at lower levels when people start to move from Blind Pick into Normal Drafts.
