@Riot Why do you discriminate against the color red?

Cyrad··2 votes·2,242 views

Red is my favorite color, which totally biases my skin/chroma purchasing decisions.

However, you started doing bundle exclusive chromas this year. That would be fine except for the fact you always make the "Ruby" chroma exclusive to the bundle. The chroma lacks any special features aside from Gangplank's pineapple. It's just red. This year has has been a repeated cycle of getting excited for a new batch of chromas on the PBE only to find out I can't get the red one unless I pay $20 to $40. And the more chromas in the batch (that I don't want), the more I have to pay.

Why do you do this? Why make the red chroma exclusive? Do you just hate people that love the color red?

Because red is the most popular color, so they make the Ruby chromas hard to obtain in order to get as many people to buy these bundles as possible.

not even conspiracy theory, they've officially said as much. "We've put the most popular chromas into Bundlesto increase their values to players."

I hope that's not true as that's a fairly predatory way to sell the product. Especially when the Ruby chroma isn't special in any way aside from being red.

Red is the color of blood and it represents violence. Everyone hates violence so should you hate red

Fire trucks are red. Roses are red. Blood also represents life. Does that mean I should hate fire trucks, roses, and life?

What I was telling you is "Riot not making red chroma is not discrimination against red", what I said is discrimination against red.

Red is the primary color of the Riot logo. Guess they want it to be more “exclusive.”
