If the SoloQ that comes out in a couple weeks uses the same champ/position select format, I'll probably do that then. My misunderstanding. | ||

I guess someone has to be shafted, but I really thought that the system was fine before. No one ever complained about being last pick other than not getting their choice of role. Now that everyone is guaranteed their role, no one would have any reason to complain about last pick ... so why shaft first pick so hard? Like, either you are: 1) Playing solo queue, in which case the "priority picks" thing doesn't make any sense, and first pick is just shafted; 2) Playing with friends, in which case, really, are you really complaining about being last pick, don't be such a bitch. Also I'm saving this post for when Riot introduces something new, and LLers accuse me of being a Riot apologist because I don't immediately declare it the worst piece of garbage ever created by humanity. | ||

I guess they really fucking want you to level 1-30 I can see a lot of people not bothering with the game because of that crackdown and then Riot doing something silly in the name of getting more people to play when all they have to do is make the 1-30 grind less painful. | ||

I just don't understand why they don't have unranked level 30 accounts available for sale. If you're worried about too many smurfs or something make the RP cost high. Instead you would have to waste your time grinding 1-30 and ruining games for people who are actually new at the game. It's just pointless. | ||

It's just pointless. I can't think of any PvP game that allows folks who know what they are doing to lurk around true beginners as long as LoL does. It is really unfriendly. It goes against all of that ranting before that they did about being more welcoming to new people. Then again they did a 180 on being less convoluted about their game systems and such. | ||

It's just pointless. Riot makes quite a bit of money off some of those account sellers, who purchase RP to boost the account to 30 faster. they don't lose that money when they ban the account either. But yeah the leveling system is antiquated. From a time when summoners were a thing, and your account was your avatar leveling up and purchasing runes and gaining skill points (masteries) to use for your summoned champion. All that shit should be simplified and available freely at this point if they really want to help new players. | ||

Yeah I agree, it's just such a grind and you're not even playing the actual game 1-30 because you dont have any runes or champs. rito should just make all accounts level 30 and have enough IP for standard runes and then restrict ranked until you have a certain number of normal games won like dota does (i think) | ||

Probably better to just offer one of three starter sets of runes, one for "mages" one for "Tanks" and one for "Physical" champs.Support gets hung out a bit, but any of those pages are function in the support role. | ||

Bottom is assumed ADC. they want to leave it open to avoid enforcing the meta (lol). but technically you could run yasuo bot as is sometimes done in challenger on NA by people who can't ADC, and sometimes you could run morde i guess.

AD-reds (will help in last hitting regardless of lane), Armor (or flat health) yellows, scaling mr blues, and AD quints (more last hitting for newbs). The difference is affording a page and knowing what to buy for the page, and actually doing it. Champions are the fun thing to spend IP on, no one goes "Oh fuck yeah ,95 AD. way more fun now." but they will have a similar reaction to getting a new champ. Giving a set based on what you select that you want to play (and then discounting the other starter sets to encourage you to get all three), Prevents the issue of being overwhelmed by all these numbers and prices. It's like buying a starter deck in MTG. it doesn't have to win tournaments, but it gives a new player an idea of how to build their own, while also being function to play games with. Except in this example you'd have to pick between buying cards and entering events or having access to different colors of mana or something. | ||

after ~20-25 minutes most rune pages don't do a whole lot. | ||
