As much as I want to enjoy this mode, I just can't with how it is

Really it boils down to a few things:

  • Gold gain from early game than items - People I know were complaining about this and I can clearly see why. It's not fun going through the first ai stages of the game, getting what can be just a handful of gold at times, while other players just completely get super lucky with items. It doesn't feel fair that all I get is maybe an early slot for champions on the board and maybe a few rerolls and picks, while my opponent gets a Guinsoo's already on his Vayne/Varus/whatever champ he got lucky leveling up.

  • Champ rolls don't always feel great with RNG - Speaking of which, trying to level up certain champs you have for whatever build you want feels like shit. Yes, maybe you can get it to work and get lucky, but that's just it: You have to get lucky for the build you want to go with. Last match I couldn't pull any more Darius' for my Knight build so I had to scrap. Similar to Mord in the same game but as soon as I scrapped I started getting him, which was just infuriating as I just wanted to try and pull Lucian. Once again, everyone else is getting amazing pulls for their builds and just steamrolling ahead since RNG-esus was with him. I get that rolling for champs is part of the game but when you're just stuck and can't pull anything that you need to level up champs, it just feels like shit. I want to try certain builds, certain paths, just try and get creative to see what can work. But I can't ever feel like I can do that if I'm being forced to hope the RNG is on my side and gives me what I want. It's not like card game where I could put together certain cards and just hope I draw the right ones at the right time, still knowing that X card is somewhere in my deck and I could draw it or have a way to find it.

  • Champs can disappear after carousel if you're full at random and screw you - Second game before hand I nearly had a Nidalee leveled up to 3 but because I was full and this was after I picked my last Nid, the game decided to get Rid of my other Nidalee, so no level up! Wouldn't it be nicer to decide who to get rid of when that happens, instead of just the computer randomly screwing you over like that?

  • Scummy practices and prices for avatars - Need I say more about this?

And after all of this, Riot actually had to put out a Ranked mode for this. Ranked. In a game mode that is mostly RNG! WHAT ARE THEY THINKING!?!?! I do want to try and enjoy this mode, it can be fun from a few matches that I played. But with how it is right now, I'm probably just going to avoid it because I don't like games that are heavily decided on computer RNG and screwing players over.

I 100% understand the frustration of the rolling for champs especially when you are trying to find a reksai to get to 2 stars and you know for a fact no one plays reksai and you cant find her after 10 rolls.

You also have to take into account that the game is in "beta" so you are playing 70% of the game. Plus you also have to remember there is a shared champ pool so if you are building Nid and there are 2-4 others doing the same thing nid is gonna be hard to almost get to 2 stars tbh.

The game mode is hella aggravating at times and being "skilled" at the game is a loose term because if you can't get you champs/items then you are almost guaranteed to lose. I think the game is a lot of fun tbh but there deff needs some looking at with balance.
