Unlocking Champions Is Far Too Much of A Chore

PIease Suck Me·Sep 9, 2018·3 votes·1,903 views

I've played since season four and find that unlocking champions, especially early on takes far too long. I recently got a new account after i forgot my old login and recovery email and unlocking champions, more so for expensive champions is way too grindy. I think that a lot of it has too do with hextech crafting being a trash system when it comes to unlocking new things and shouldn't have replaced ip at all, does anyone else agree? ?

Fun fact, you get more now in the first 15 levels then you get with the old system up to 30, it only heavily slows down (on a new account) well into the 50s and that is without using discounts.

I would like to see the facts towards that. Since I have an account from Alpha. all champions unlocked. Then a fresh account i leveled from 1-35ish. The speed seems MUCH slower as well as less rewarding. seeing a chunk of BE all at once seems like a lot but, when you realize you had to play 10ish games for that level. There is an issue. I get about 800-900 BE a level. (Being generous here as well) That is less then then the IP you would have obtained from 10 games prior. you roughly got 100 IP a game. 63 games for a 6300 champion (Not including first wins here). Now if you were to go the same way 63 games would only net you about 5400 BE. And that's IF you decide to convert all shards into BE. So you are still down 900 IP BE to get that essence you NOW need to play ANOTHER 10 games to level. Then you would need to hope that the capsule to get has at least 900 BE. If not, then it is another 10 games for you. So that would put you at 70 games if you got it. Or 80 if you were just short 100 or so BE..It's not a fun system in any way and I'm confused to where you obtained your numbers from.

it takes me like 4 or 5 levels to actually get any champions above a 200 blue essence threshold

I also feel like you still get utter garbage for leveling up because you can get screwed over by RNG, I hit 100 on my main and I got Poppy , Azir + 450 BE, which is ~2500 BE..for hitting level 100.. [slayer-jinx-unamused] At least I got azir, I do like him.. but I'm saving up for a name change so he might have to be disenchanted [sg-soraka]
