Yet another patch where Item RNG isn't fixed

I guess that one guy on a 10+ win streak because of him/her getting 5+ items in the first 3 minion waves is really good. Like they have an amazing amount of skill to be beating me with items that I cannot even get due to poor luck. It's a very fun and exciting experience!

(This is all sarcasm if you couldn't already tell)

Please fix Item RNG. Make it consistent for each player, where each player gets the same amount of items. Thanks Rito.

Yep. I'm done. I just had a game where I got basically no components (outside of the ones from the carousel) until raptors and two of those were spatulas (which did not work with my comp at all). Meanwhile there were people sitting on perfect items for their hypercarries. This game mode is just a joke presently. Oh and Hextech is the definition of unfun imo, so it seems like they are going in the wrong direction to me.

Hot conspiracy theory here but I think TFT is just a way to sell more lootboxes in the little legends. The game is a gamble so you get addicted and invested.

Add the Hextech for another layer of rng. The game is purely a coin flip at this point.

RNG games having RNG? Not exactly top tier analysis here. Funny how you never see challenger players complaining about RNG as an excuse. Must just be they are the ones who get the best RNG all the time.

The issue isn't random items the issue is the range of random items. One person getting 0 and one person getting 6 in the first 3 rounds is the problem. Lower the variance so you get at least 3 and no one gets more than 6 and it's fine.

Head onto PBE right now. They have removed all item RNG. You now only get items from carousel round, meaning by end game you have 2-3 completed items.

It’s not fun at all. Suddenly Demons, Yordles, Brawlers, Knights, and Nobles are the only viable unit comps

Had to play against a Varus with item 3031 item 3124 item 3124 , then my opponent got to let his Karthus ult 3 fucking times in one round.

Funny, I just went on the forums to say something about this and here i see this.

My last game my first 3 rounds i got one coin and one item. Every minion wave after I only got one item. How can it be competitive when I see people with several completed items and most of mine are scattered on the couple characters I was able to pick up before losing very quickly.

I figured on raptors I'd get at least 2 items to make up for getting next to nothing up to that point... but I got 1 spatula... the guy i face has multiple warmogs, ludens echo, rage blade, and more... I have... thornmail and a zekes herald.

Once it gets to the dragon, everyone is pretty much getting the same amount of reward.. but if up to that point I get 3 items and someone else gets 6+... how do you come back from that. RNG is cool and all, but gifted rng should balance out over the course of the game.

It's okay lol, now you can just screw over anyone who relies on items

Ztoka8/14/2019, 8:51:35 PM1 votes

I understand it not being identical, but it should definitely balance out at krugs or wolves.. Items do seem to balance out if you survive til the end, sadly though, many players are boned hard before then and never get to catch up w/ items to help level the playing field. Normally, when you look at the top 4 players mid game, at least 2 of those 4 are there because they have good item rng, rather than skill. It's pretty sad having better synergy etc. yet getting wooped because the game felt you didn't need items quite yet.
