I can imagine why the first rumours of the crowd are negative about the new shop, though I like it. I must say it's quite useful to get feedback of altermative skill/itembuilds and not at all a problem that the shop is big on screen because hotkeys can navigate through them as before.
Good job S2games!
G00D JOB ^_^
