I have a feeling Tier 4 Alpha Catalysts are going to become the most annoying resource in the game.
From the way my rank ups have been going or I should say feeling, it seems that Tier 4 Alpha Catalyst are in a super weird spot. It's still kind of rare to get, but you need to use 3 of them just to get to the point of needing 4 of them to get your champion to, whats starting to feel, the current standard level (theres a subtle difference between the max a character can currently be and when that max has existed long enough that its not really special anymore and just where any given champion should be). I feel like getting 7 Tier 4 Alpha Catalyst is going to start becoming much more annoying in terms of how Tier 7 Basic Catalyst are going to start coming in but are not going to be adjusted in the same way.
