i agree with this as it does take a long time to build up IP for these champs also there may be less worry if champs from previous seasons drop in IP price more often. we have only had four drop so far this year. (miss fortune, irelia, malzahar and i cant remember the last one but you get my point)

That could happen coincidentally if we used lists of types, so I like the personally-tweaked rotations rather than automatic (and then we can listen to player requests). It also ensures that we have enough easy Champions in the rotations - our #1 goal.

Ryze doesn't have a stun...

GG Riot has no idea how their own game works.

That way you get the champ feedback fresh for the next work week. Also, since patch/content drops can be Tuesday or Wednesday and you can use that for marketing purposes: " Purchase the new champ with IP or RP and access them before they're rotated in!". Theres my 2 cents
I like that the rotation is completely random and a smart move by riot if we had a special day for the rotation then the severs would get packed on those days. It's a better idea to make it random so that players play frequently to see if the champs are free. (for those who don't look at the website)

GG Strill, you don't know how this game works either. Ryze got a snare, rune prison, FYI. Acts as a stun, never the less long range champion can still "act" and do some skills, it's not fully a stun, but save your comments next time. : )

Thanks Riot for this week, though you should add more casters to the rotation.

Also some HIGH IP champions that are barely used on teams like Viktor, Nidalee, maybe even Akali would be a good add on. Thanks though

Why would you troll the producers of the game. I think they are fully aware of how the game "works" considering that they spend a lot of time to make it better for us ungrateful players.

Can you put Talon for the champion rotation next week? He used to be my favourite champion when he was free about 5 weeks ago.
