The new ranked pass feature in the game has sparked debate among players, not all of it positive. As one player articulately put it, “I’m worried about the premium pass thing… charging so much for it? No way I’m buying this, I’ve got league gacha PTSD.” Many players share these concerns, feeling uneasy about the potential financial strain in a game they have invested much time and money into already. The prospect of paying to access certain features has stirred up dissatisfaction among players, who fear the game may prioritize profit over fun for its creators. Some players voice their discontent by expressing frustration, arguing that “it seems like they realized most players focus on ranked mode and don’t need progression. So let’s introduce a ranked pass to make more money from people who mostly play ranked.” This perspective casts a cloud over what was once a cherished game mode. It feels like being told you have to pay for a subscription to watch old episodes of your favorite shows – rather strange, isn’t it?
