People were getting something like 30~60ip per match regardless of length or win. Apparently it was indeed a bug, and Riot went to fix it. There was a patch this morning. I assume that was it, but I haven't been able to test the new ip gain yet.

The point stands. If you play consistently, even a bit, you can afford champs when they come out. Runes are a different story, though.
