#also the Path of the Champion Reddit just announced that I will merge the LoR one

I really hate the newest Legends of Runterra Expansion has no pass. I absolutely understand this is a result because of layoffs and I'm still thankful that we got new card backs and emotes but it sucks for all player involved. And I know the Riotler who still work at LoR doing their best! They try to do wonders with the little ressource they have!

The pass were always a damn good deal for their price - you bough them for 10 USD, got usually three skins (each one cost around 7 USD), tons of icons, card backs and emotes. And you basically got all cards from the current expansion since you could only get expansion exclusive cards, which usually meant that you could max out the pass and buy the few missing cards at the end of the pass. I usually did this. (Also if you already crafted these and got a duplicated in the pass, you got 100% of the Green Essence which mean you could craft them earlier not getting punished by it).

If you were a Path of Champion Exclusive Player, it still was very good deal. Usually you got 60 Champion Fragments for one Champ (enough to get them 2*), 50 Chamion Fragments for another (still enough for *) and some Wild Fragments you could unlock the third. You got Silver Reliquaries and Stardust and PotC exclusive missions to get even more rewards for free. Even if you were not interest in the cards and/or cosmetic rewards, it was hella worth.

Now they basically removed all rewards aside from the Card Backs and Emotes added these in the PoTC missions. Which mean instead as usually getting 110 Champion specific fragments + a handful Silver Reliquary, we only get 30 Lux: Illuminated Fragments, which means can only unlock one champion by default in this expansion. To get all the rewards you need to get one champion to 3* which mean you have to invest your had earned Wild Fragments into one champion of this expansion. (Assuming you take Lux, these are still 70 more fragments which is worth 2 full weeks of dailies in PotC).

So the PotC player are annoyed because instead getting useful ressource for the game mode, we get cosmetics including emotes which we don't need in a PvE mode.

PvP player are annoyed because if they want all cosmetic rewards they have to play a gamemode which maybe is not a cup of tea. Also you don't get any free Expansion-only cards which mean have fun getting the new cards from the Vault because the propability is super low. Today, I opened 3 Diamond Vault + 3 Bonus Chests and only got two new cards. Which mean you do have to craft this expansion if you wanna use it. Which for player like me, who have +400k Green Essence is not a big deal, but there are enough casual player who don't have so much ressource.

Like nobody is happy how the mission turned out even tho we are thankful for getting the Card Backs and Emotes for free.
