@Riot you've lost my interest, but I have faith in you.
I'd prefer feedback, I'm curious to know what people think.
Watching WOW videos on Youtube a minute ago kind of revamped my feelings toward this.
League has always been very lackluster to me as far as runes/masteries are concerned. I've never felt very thrilled to fill them out because they seem to lie incredibly similar across a wide spectrum of characters, and generally they don't make you feel very unique. It could be to try and keep things balanced; however, I don't find Gnar compared to most older champions... balanced.
I understand League is nothing like wow in more ways than one, but my point is: I would still love to see Riot pull together a more unique system of allowing the players to really gain that sense of potential legendary-prowess when it comes to originating your style of game play. Not just AD/AP.
Top of the head thoughts would be to create character specific gear. It would add a huge window of creativity for the players, and it would allow Riot to focus on adding depth to the overall game, rather than repeating skills amongst new characters.
