Crystal, Twisted, Howling

For all the effort Riot has shown for SR...

Nothing for other maps. They don't even try. The rare riot replies on map development is always excuses, excuses.

For example, Crystal is the most ancient map. Ascension map allowed it to shine, the recall model is damn new at last, and the map itself is better. Then, gone. Bone to the bulky recall and pathetic map texture. Those who tried out Crystal after Ascension suddenly found theirselves in something that most likely dates back to S1/S2 with bots EVERY. SINGLE. GAME.

Great work Riot.

Well.. check how Riot cares about other "maps and modes". See the URL for this thread http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/summoners-rift/HAfk2g0E-crystal-twisted-howling See? "maps and modes" is "summoners rift". D: They don't really care. If you only play alt modes like me you are totally ignored. Too bad this is the best game I played

I just blew the forums up with this. They blatantly don't give a shit. Why even have multiple maps if you don't support them? I'll spare my rage, but I'll list items that need to be fixed: item 3170 still doesn't take Negatron Cloak, but Orb of Winter randomly got, item 3104 still gives 25% crit chance, while IE was reduced to 20%, item 3290 Aether Wisp cost changes weren't reflected in this item, costs 100 gold less than 5s version, item 3180 I don't play dominion, but should take negatron cloak.

Also, do you notice how the most supported and highly sensitive issues like LCS champions balance are* Red-Free?*

They avoid those to hide their face and save what they could from things like the lore removal.

They've publically admitted that they think Lee Sin needs to be nerfed. But they won't do it. They never will. He's flashy. I didn't used to buy into the LC$BIGPLAYS thing, but it's becoming more and more true with time.

Similarly, they base over half of their contextual information in patch notes on what is affecting the top, top section of players (and ranked in general (lots of talk about counterpicking, but that's kinda difficult when I picked my champ before I saw any of the enemies' picks)), who would honestly continue to play the game regardless of what happened. Instead, they should base the game around the most common group of players, which I believe are silver/gold-skill level players in blind pick/team builder.
