RIOT has failed to hire proper usability experts and has introduced the ugliest and most Nielsen's usability heuristics breaker of all time. It's ugly, takes forever to find anything, it takes you out of the game leading to deaths, and gives people headhackes due to the bad color choice, in contrast to ingame colors. My 5 year old, and propably yours could do better.
There is no doubt it is really bad, and only a minority, and those who want to kiss riot's ass are complementing it.
So let your opinion be heard. Let RIOT know how bad this hud update is, but don't stop there!
If you have the time, flud their forums with better ideas, because I'm sure every single one of you, who is coming here, can have a better solution for a hud than that presented to us.
Have fun brainstorming!
There is no reason why RIOT should not give us an option to switch back to the old HUD. Everyone i know is complaining about the new layout but even more so about the fact that you cannot choose. Some people might like but others are used to the old one, and have trouble re adapting after years and years worth of muscle memory training, It is only fair everyone should have a choice in wich HUD they wish to have. Having no option makes it imbalanced.
