This is the thing, with over 100 champions, I'm pretty sure "veterans" have ample champions to pick from. Unless they release champions that bring either way more power, or way more utility... You know what, I'll just say "OP". Unless they release more "OP" champions, I highly doubt constant champion releases will make them say "need to get now, must play". I think most people play for fun or to get better, rather than for the next uninspired champ that will be "terribly useless" or "seemingly OP and will get nerfed in a week".

I'd personally like different items available. Atm, it feels like you build the same items in every game for every role (with a few exceptions). Back in Season 1 we had SoD and Starks, so it was Viable to get Armor Pen, as you had more itemization and a higher Armor Pen cap you could possibly hit. Which meant different builds, runes, and items between level 30 players. Right now that is basically stagnent. Everyone builds the same items every game. You can basically predict what they will return with. Dota itemization is a lot better with balanced "summoner spells". And no, that's not biased since I play LoL and not Dota. >_<
