Hello Everybody,

I just got done taking the feedback survey riot just released and I thought sharing my thoughts with you all, might bring a change in the way we think about Summoner Icons.

I was asked if the 250 RP for a summoner Icon is fair and this is what i have to say.

There are skins worth 260 RP making 250 RP a waste on a Summoner Icon. A summoner Icon should not exceed the amount of 100-150 RP since it is only viewed briefly in the Loading Screen and It has no other interaction with the game unlike a skin that anyone can see it In the loading screen and In game. In a few words, it just sits there and you eventually forget about it. What would be amazing is, If RIOT allowed Summoners to create their own Icons with a "Design It Yourself" type of build in software for a price which would allow people to show off their creations and maybe implement them as an Emote like the Summoner Crest Logos we have now (cough* call of duty multiplayer logos* cough*). If any Rioters ever read this, and likes the idea, please make a move and maybe even let the summoners decide!

Thank you!

You know, if people made own icons, there would be alot of inappropriate stuff in them. Like, alot. Unless there would be like, you could choose background, main theme, basic shapes. You know, stuff like that. Anyways, I do believe they should make the icons cost less.

I do believe this post should be in the Theory crafting section.

That is a really cool idea.

I definitely find the cost of summoner icons too expensive, but it would be really awesome if we could make our own. Riot would obviously have to make things like inappropriate icons ban worthy, and I don't really know how difficult this would be. Seems like a great idea though, hope it becomes reality!
Thanks to all hard working sig artists <3
