They did it to Joubert last year . <| sep |> That ' s a lovely looking ass ! <| sep |> While I can completely understand wanting to keep things less complex less is more or Simple but beautiful as they say , You still have chosen form over function for this . Regarding space constraints , that was due to another design decision you made earlier with the social panel covering the entire side of the client and is entirely created by your teams design idea note that there has been feedback not liking this as well I personally see it as far too large . But during champion select is where I am mostly referencing and this social panel does not interfere during that screen , there is also a significant amount of space available to create a vertical list for masteries compared to the out of champ select masteries page . Regarding wanting all navigation on top , while it is reasonable to want this , it comes at a price when players need a functionality that is not well suited for that environment you said it yourself that there is not enough information shown when they were small tabs at the top , and changing the visuals from multiple small tabs to a single dropdown in the same area only increases the information given by the characters shown for the tab title . EDIT I have been thinking this all over and I may have come to the the reason this is such an issue for me . It takes significantly longer in champion select to change your runes than before if you have to edit a page , Now thinking on this I asked myself why this was such a big deal and I arrived at two reasons . First as a Player I want to see pregame chat as much as possible for understanding what my allies are thinking or planing before the game , and I am unable to do that for extended periods of time when it takes so long to modify masteries in champion select . Second is that the farther down the selection you are the less time you have to modify masteries if you have to make a flex pick due to comp or enemy picks . While this is easy to do if you are higher pick or already know what you are going to change , a person like me who thinks about every option in the match up for all lanes not just my own and makes changes to adjust for that takes significantly longer , hence why i have 20 pages of masteries for multiple occasions . This brings me to the conclusion that it may be the allotted time a person is given in conjunction with the increased time it takes to change pages that is infuriating .
