My proposal to revamp the Cost reduction and classification system for Champions


There are several very old Champions that have high costs, the majority of Champs released 3 years ago are still at 6300. League is getting larger and larger and older and older, so it needs to adapt as the game goes on. The new player experience needs to improve, not get worse.

I propose 6 tiers that are more or less slightly more expensive than the current 5, but every single year Champs are moved down to cheaper tiers so it pays off. New players get more access to older yet still equally viable Champions. The newer they are the larger the benefit to them.

Honestly anything in the last 2 years (2016-2014) should be First Tier

Anything from 2013 (3 years ago) should be Second Tier

Anything from 2012 (4 years ago) should be Third Tier

Anything from 2011 (5 years ago) should be Fourth Tier

Anything from 2010 (6 years ago) should be Fifth Tier

Anything from 2009 (7 years ago) should be Sixth Tier

Champs are moved down these tiers as the years go on

Riot organised champion price by skill to the best of my knowledge which is why Garen is 450, Yi is 450, Soraka is 450 ect. However when a new and easy champion is released it can't be cheaper than 6300 or no one will buy rp for new champions which is why the prices are how they are now and easy champions like Maokai are 4800
