their lack of maps and their removal of map skins killed it for me.

metalaug you're barking up the wrong tree it goes like this...

Man Nidalees animations are clunky!

Riot is by far one of the best gaming companys iv ever seen, if not the best for Customer connectiveness and community and forum presence which you just dont see ANYWHERE else, id spend the same money i have over the last 2ish years on this game again in a heartbeat if it was to keep this game and company afloat

May I become your Christmas tree Griftrix?

Riot is a great company. It's young and new and they promise to improve over the years. Also in recent interviews, they say in the upcoming years they will be creating and release new games so in the future Riot's name will be as big, and may even be bigger, then PWI, Nexon, Outspark, and Blizzard.
So whatever feelings you may have for them now, they are likely to change quicker than you can imagine.

Hey Griftrix, if you're still around, I'd like to ask a question.

In your honest opinion (not riot's), how much do the people on the forums affect decisions about gameplay changes? And I don't mean people on the PBE server. I mean people who post threads like the HUGE Nasus thread that has been around for so long.
