»Stop buying champs with RP! Such a waste. :(
My favorite fact these days: If you spend ten minutes of your own time to save a dollar, you're working for yourself
under minimum wage.
So if you play for even just an hour to farm 6300 IP to save $7 you're 'working for yourself' for under minimum wage, and should really take you more like 41 hours of gameplay straight, winning every game, with no boosts and two first wins (55 minute wins give 145 IP, five minutes to requeue, etc). 50 hours if you have a 50/50 win rate.
So you're playing for 50 hours with some other champ and being paid 14 cents an hour to save yourself paying $7 for the new champ (that you could instead be playing for those 50 hours and better enjoying yourself).
This is why the RP system works!
