It's still a stupid forced grind that has no place in a competitive game and says volumes about LoL's player base. No... Actually, I used to think the same way you do, but now that I've actually completed said grind, I think it's a pretty good idea, honestly. In the sense of grinding to 30, the point is that by the time you get there, you at least kinda have your bearings, so the more methodical ranked games are generally populated by people who, even if they are awful, know the basics of the game. You don't find any equivalents of Sc2 Bronze players in ranked LoL because you can't have 0 knowledge of the game and be level 30 unless you bought your account. As far as champions go, it honestly doesn't matter. IP is easy to get, free champions are rotated all the time, and most of the time a selection of a particular pool of champions is used because of where the metagame is. You don't need to have every champion in the game to be competitive (not even close, actually) and you definitely don't need it to improve. If anything, giving access to that many champions straight-off would make it harder for new players to actually solidify any particular skillset, since there'd be so much variety. But to reiterate: you gain absolutely no actual advantage from paying money in League. You can buy heroes and IP/exp boosts, but nothing that's going to make you win. | ||

Just play your favourite game u are enjoying and dont think about future. I feel pretty ok with SC2 hard trying and chilling in LoL pubs. Maru has been here since the beginning, and the Sora factor seems to be very overused lately (in absurd opposition to all the bad news). What other 'new' relevant player can you think of? | ||

If you want to make a correct example, use someone with better knowledge of math than Einstein. Riemann or Hilbert will do, if we are to talk about similar period of time. | ||

Wow  since when slow pitch softball matches are hugely more popular to watch then major league baseball. You sound just like anti-LoL elitist for no good reason. LoL is here and will remain for years to come. Dota2 has still long road ahead.Either way it's sad news for starcraft 2. | ||

I've been a long time lurker but i had to make and account and post here, im really excited! I think we should cheer and hope luck for MKP's future in LoL. League of Legends has become the main pillar of e-sports. We should always support and hope for the best of E-sports. I don't care about E-sports. I only care about Starcraft, so it is bad news. I also don't understand why people jump from one established game to another. I think most people think that they can just transition easily, but it seems that most people who jump from one game to another never get the success that they are expecting. After all, they are jumping late into the game. Well, GL to MKP I guess. | ||
