Healers skew things because player bars are arguably more important than seeing where the fuck you are and you can't really shrink them in that game. Where's all his important shit? Now, I'd still argue for being able to move and swap frames. But anyone arguing this UI is broadly terrible (again, lots of little problems they're working on) is ignoring a fuckton of evidence. The real question is, for someone new to League, who has no bias towards the old HUD, what does that person want as far as customization? Ex-motherfuckin-actly. In WoW, if you are not a healer, all that stuff is not "important shit".
His focus target, front-right. His CDs, front and center. Buffs, front and center. HP and TP, front and center.

1. I want to be able to see the timers without constantly having to press a button.
4. I want to have a set of colors that doesn't make me want to vomit every time I play. Just give players 2-3 color schemes and let them pick the one they like the best.
1: You can hit O instead of holding Tab, same as before. 4: Refer to this thread.

I know I can hit O. I'd just prefer it be up there all the time since it can be small and won't take up much space.

they deliberately left the bottom left and top right completely empty for just this reason...

Which was smart, but there are parts of the game besides laning phase.

It isn't a red/blue issue anymore, its a top/bottom river issue. At least its side neutral though

The HUD just needs bigger fonts and champion icons. It's broadly in the right direction.

Kind of sad, the nerfs to tank ekko. Not gonna make assassin ekko good.
It was funny to read their intent when they made him....a utility assassin so even if he can't one shot you he has utility! Herp durp, why would you build damage on him with that much utility?
I've been spamming the shit out of him full tank, its broken strong.
Dive in and try to kill someone then run away?
or
Insane initiation, a fucking 80% slow for THREE SECONDS you can apply to every member of their team with 1-2 autos, plus a 60% RANGED AOE slow to gap close, and a get out of jail free card ult if they do manage to do 10 thousand damage to you......plus you can still delete anyone below 30% HP.
PROTIP: Run him with AD/Ar/CDR/AS with ad masteries, way better jungle clear and damage since you aren't going to be building any AP, and just sit on peoples faces autoing.

AD runes suck if you have no AD ratios. The 5% missing health looks promising but if its average case is 2.5% I'm not impressed. And his clears aren't great.

Even with 5.15 tentative tank Ekko nerfs for some god awful unknown reason it's really not that major. I don't think it necessarily cuts him out of meta. I've been thinking that we'll see him top more in response to poke and the Fizz-Maokai dilemma. He's great at shoving waves and getting CS. You can build boots second to try to deny waves with the constant shoving. He has poke, multiple forms of CC, mobility and strong dive. Plus he's really strong at skirmishing which always seems to be the fotm when it gets around to worlds. I think we'll see a few different assassins come back in vogue. Other than Kassadin I'm not sure who; probably the AP assassins though.

Balance aside, Riot has fucked up a couple champions design wise lately.
A utility assassin? You cannot actually be serious and think that would work without one always being better than the other.
Kalista has like 3 champion defining traits crammed onto one champ. 1. AA hopping, 2. Ally linking, 3. Rend. Entire kits could be built around these concepts, but they shoved all of them onto one.
Rek'Sai having everything a jungler could possibly want, while also being pretty brainless about it.

Yay.
I hope Riot won't go out of their way to stop it.

i hope they improve their hud so i dont have to use mods
|
Don't forget to remove it before you patch though.It's not gonna fuck up your client but it won't let you uninstall it after it starts and it will do the good old check all files real slowly while making you wonder if you pc will survive for much longer from all the resource usage.

If you can use a custom HUD, I'd sure fucking like a custom HUD that tells me when my Darius ult will kill my enemy instead of leaving him with 50 HP.
Reading that thread, I think League just needs some new drama so that all those whiners can have an outlet for their bitching. We need some league mod to be "caught" signing NDAs or Ghostcrawler to write an ask.fm post that can be taken out of context, because reading this HUD drama is like re-living those cringey Facebook visual redesign complaints all over again.

Not to mention riot have no way of knowing who uses this lol.

After few plays I am starting to like the new HUD - I see two problems with it, though. Firstly map is blueish - it is really blurry and much less readable than odl minimap Secondly - why the fuck experience bar is in some form of curve? It is less readable than old solution.
