I still contend the old "Adobe Air" client was more usable and organized than anything that came after...
In the last year that I played it, they added the Riot Launcher, which was nothing but a massive PLAY button that really only functioned to launch the other 'new' client. It was mind-boggling how dumb it was...
The new client was better until Alpha Patch 5
It was never designed to carry as much bloat as they’ve put into it since
Those were the days
Don’t forget that it also got rid of the individual animated splash pages and theme music that used to play for every champ release and event (eg. Worlds). Used to be so hype.
