League of Legends finally has crafting!
I personally love how LoL is developing not just as a MOBA, or an ESport, but also expanding into the realms of MMO's with the recently added ability to form Clubs (Guilds) and now also crafting!
For those who have not yet heard about it, LoL now enables you to craft/earn temp/permanent skins, skin wards, champions, summoner icons and other cool loot. Basically whenever you or someone on your pre-made team earns a S-/S/S+ rank on a champion after a game then you will receive a chest. Wins give you a chance to be rewarded with a key or key fragments to unlock these chests. The keys needs to be assembled in order to be able to open up the chest you've earned. The chests provide either two kinds of essence, champ/skin shards or gemstones. Essence is used to craft or enhance shards into the loot/rewards mentioned earlier. Shards are a bit dynamic in that they can be grouped to re-roll into higher/permanent loot or be disenchanted into essence. Gemstones are the rarest of them all and can be used to get a quick combination of a key/chest along with a high probability of attaining another gemstone. They are also poised to become even more pivotal in the future for crafting as this system expands.

Seems like a really cool system, definitely a great start, and has a lot of potential!
Feel free to share your thoughts on this new system.
