The reality -- and you do know this -- is that players aren't supporting the team. They're buying a skin for their favourite champion, and they want the border that goes along with that. The signatures are a nice tough, but most players do not actually think too much about the players.

They're buying it for the champion. You know this, and you're taking advantage of it. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

If I'm understanding what you're saying here correctly, it's that you believe Taliyah mains will largely want Crown's signature on their loading screen card even though they don't give a sh*t about Crown? But they want it because regardless it's a Taliyah thing? I'm happy to continue the dialogue but I want to make sure I'm understanding your perspective correctly.

When Worlds' skin prices went up, it was because their quality notably increased. However, some Special Edition borders seem to get more expensive each time, with their quality being relatively the same. It's also confusing why the Conqueror Varus bundle included its border for basically 1 RP, and then suddenly, the next batch of esports skins ramp that price up to 640 RP.

If this is done so that the biggest fans have more ways to show off their fandom and contribute back to the team, why not give fans more content, rather than just more expensive content? Why not have SSG themed emotes and ward skins in addition to everything else?

If the bundle specific summoner icons can't be sold separately because they unlock the special border, why not have another different set of icons for fans to buy?

I definitely don't think making borders increasingly expensive is the way to go when your main objetive is to give fans MORE WAYS to support their favorite teams, n...

You're right. This would be better with additional icons and emotes. The reason we don't have those is because we already sold them during Worlds last year, so we figured fans had that opportunity already. But I guess it does feel weird that we don't have those options next to each other. Maybe it was a mistake to test this product without having the additional options at the same time.

Regardless, you should see options more like what you're describing during Worlds this year. Does that help?

Literally hacked tech. The icon actually grants you the signature. Every border since PROJECT 2016 has an exclusive icon with it. We can't sell the icon without the border.
