I started off this redesign by trying to understand the problem.
The current gun buddy page seems to be in a bad state; People have been complaining about its limited function and its disorderliness. Although Riot has said the latter is due to a bug, the current design isn't very scalable as more gun buddies are inevitably added to the game. When this happens, the carousel system becomes much harder to navigate.
In short, the current design is
- Not very scalable
- Hard to navigate
I made this redesign with the intention of improved clarity, ease of use, and scalability.
My solution: I decided to display the gun buddies in a list style with filters that allow users to highlight the content they want to see, while hiding content they don't want to see.
This was made in Figma and animated in Protopie.
EDIT: Thanks for great response and feedback guys!
