Summoner's Rift is a great map we can all agree, but if you've been playing league a few years then you know as well as I do every corner of the map. Adding new champions is a great way to enhance replay value, but you can only walk the same path in new shoes so many times... Which is why I propose the idea for a new map! Not a new game type itself but just a second choice of map for Classic 5v5

Personally I would enjoy a daytime oriented desert themed map with a different layout but obviously with the same fundamentals such as top, middle, and bottom lane. Jungle as well as monsters. Fog of war and team sides with turrets and a nexus, ect... Anyways let me show you some beautiful inspirational pictures I didn't make. Credit goes to the artists.

Just imagine different paths than Summoner's Rift, that are positioned to propose new ideas with teamwork and jungle play. Instead of straight lanes they could be partially rounded but retain the length or possibly be a bigger map than Summoner's Rift. Regardless of the possibilities I would be happy with a new theme in general, thanks for reading my post please consider this as an idea Riot!

I know it could be hard to make an entirely new map, but as a substitute, I think it would be cool if we could purchase (or choose for free, but that won't happen), different skins for Summoner's Rift.

The shape and position of the terrain and turrets etc wouldn't change, but there could be a desert theme as you said, a winter theme (they already have that), maybe a piltover theme, a void theme, an arcade theme, a swamp/marsh theme, an underwater/scuba theme... the possibilities are endless.

I remember when they used to change the look of Summoner's Rift for the season, like for Halloween and Winter. Even just making the map look different is nice from time to time.
