League of Legends Fans Disappointed With Season 9 Rewards Program

League of Legends fans were deeply disappointed with Riot's rewards program, which was aimed at the quality of the product and its price.
So, did you manage to make it all the way to Diamond last season? I bet you wanted something to commemorate this event. It's unfortunate that Riot's Ranked Rewards merch has been getting terrible reviews on social media lately.
“For those of you who are considering receiving clothes for the received rank, don't," said Reddit user u/ rankedgummy . "Reading some of the posts from Redditors, I was already expecting pretty poor quality, but I'm still disappointed."
A Reddit user noted that the items were "overpriced," costing $115 for the jacket and t-shirt. These items are adorned with your name and rank summoner, but he went on to say that the name was "fuzzy" on the product he received.
“It's really badly done. The material seems very cheap, the printing is inconsistent,” he continued. “And it smells. They seem to be soaked in vinegar or something, the sour smell is so strong that I can’t even try them on.”
Another user in the thread pointed out that this smell is specific to items with dark dyes as they are used to improve the quality of the dyes on dark items, but it should come out in the wash.
These items from Riot echo what other popular publishers have on offer in the Fanatics Overwatch League store. This store has long suffered from complaints about the poor quality of their merchandise and can also be quite expensive depending on the item. However, many items in this store suffer from even worse complaints, including uneven and crooked screen printing that washes out in one wash, and a number of similar complaints.
Although the prices of these items are affordable compared to traditional sports, they still cost a bit more due to their custom in-game items, so it's understandable that fans expect quality.
Fans who want to take their chances in League of Legends who earned rewards in Season 9 can do so if they have completed their placement matches in Season 9. by visiting a Riot Merch store.
