Critical facts behind Your Shop in League of Legends

The Riot dev claimed that earlier, the Your Shop used to look into the champions that players used to play. However, they had to stop doing it as gamers often forget what champions they played three or four years back. It resulted in complaints and frustration as it was not something related to their current favorites.

Apart from that, users also tend to forget any previous offer, making it difficult for Riot to make the player base happy.

Instead, they have started to focus on the games that the players play. This means that if in the past few months, they have been playing too much Kai’Sa, then there is a chance they will end up getting IG Kai’Sa on their Your Shop.

However, it does not end here, as the dev also confirmed that the region data is considered.

since YourShop is in the spotlight, here are some fun facts :]- it is based on YOUR games- it is based on your REGION (so, v hard to game the system unless you get your whole region to join you!)- you CAN'T see the same offer 2x unless it's the only possible option remaining

It means that if players like a certain champion or a specific skin, chances are they will like something related. This is based on a particular champion that might be played in the same region.

For instance, if players feel they like IG Kai’Sa, then they might also get IG Fiora or IG Camille as long as these champions are played in the same region. They are also exclusive skins and might be to the liking of players within League of Legends.

This helps maintain diversity as, if there is a one-trick, it prevents the system from offering skins for only one champion. Finally, the entire system prevents any skin from repeating itself. This means that, unless there is a chance that there is no other offer available to be provided, none of them will appear more than twice.

The Your Shop is currently bugged, and it will be up soon. The 11.15 patch is underway, and apart from the discounted shop, players have also gained access to the new champion, Akshan.

It is the final part of the Sentinels of Light event, expected to run till August 10th in League of Legends.
