No items in carousel round in PBE?!

I have to say this is the first time Ive been this disappointed in TFT. I don't know why you people at Rito games thought it was a good idea to make it so you can sometimes not get items off of carousel but that is the worst decision you guys could have possibly made for the game mode that I have come to really enjoy. Someone told me you were trying to make the games longer by doing so but it literally only does the opposite. It speeds up the pace of the games because anyone that is behind gets royally screwed since they cant get first pick on the items in carousel rounds, which is like half the game tbh. And the fact that you can get a unit with no items in first carousel round is even more ridiculous. This change, along with Hextech being as strong as it is, also completely screws over some comps in the game(like gunslingers) which kinda need items to be even somewhat strong. I can genuinely say that if this terrible change makes it to live servers, and Hextech 4 doesn't get a nerf, I will not be playing TFT anymore. it will be another failed game mode by your company. Extremely questionable decision making Rito games, although I guess not completely shocking considering your track record. XD

Please give us an update if there's still hope to save twisted treeline. There has been PLENTY of support for keeping it

Normalize item drops already. It's such a terrible mechanic.

Thanks meddler that's good to hear, carousel items are my only comeback in a game after getting shafted by both item drop RNG and champ pool RNG.

I would be screwed if items weren't on carousel.

What exactly do you think is a beta environment for? Also you know the mode itself, even if it's on the live serves is still a beta version, right?

One would think for bug testing etc.. But we saw the shit show that has been released and "ready for ranked" despite the bug infestation and heavy RNG.

Makes sense to put a ranked mode of something out there when it's still in "beta" lmfao. Not to mention buggy af

Did it ever cross your mind that it might be better for testing and gathering statistics about the mod? By putting players on equal skill level against each other they can better see how the mode works, how much is it influenced by RNG etc. so they can make better balance changes, decisions how to evolve TFT and new synergies etc.? It is far better to see how the game actually works than having someone with understanding of the TFT crush clueless players who just blame it all on RNG and ,,luck". It also gives incentive to players to play the mode more so they get more data.

No no no, the people that frequent these boards are dirt brain as hell (im just on here to see what this maintenance is about) you can't expect anyone on here to have anything above a 20iq or to have any kind of basic common sense. They just come here to cry and complain about stuff. Using some basic logic is well above and beyond what you could possibly expect from the people here.
