i mean surely you can put it in with out the urf buff and it would be fine. it is one of those items i go to when I'm behind and i love it for that. so please the next time you put urf up (because this one is almost over) can you please keep Zz'Rot Portal in. i don't care if it doesn't get any buffs just keep it in.

p.s. if you down vote without commenting then you either are apart of the problem or are just not helpful (if you had to be one this would be the one i would prefer you to be) and should not be down voting or up voting with a given reason.

Most people understand why ZZrot and Banner of command were removed. You created a spawn point that lasted for roughly 3min?, that had a 30- sec CD. People could spam them. One person could have multiple portals at the same time. There were multiple strats in older URF's, where you could block minions at spawn, and mass them. Deny enemies EXP/Gold, while massing for a large push.

Now, add Banner of Command into it. All of those blocked minions in your base suddenly started getting buffed. And magic immune. People could release armies of super minions down mid lane, and then push a side lane. The super minions would take a few towers at least, and if the enemy didn't have a strong AD like Garen, they'd outright lose to magic immunity.

ok i see your point but that is if they had the urf buff witch as i stated in my post i am fine if it did not have that buff. so as you can see i have not only asked for it back but also have given a incomplete (because i don't know a single thing about coding) but very possible fix to the problems you listed. thank you for actually commenting unlike others who just don't seem to understand how much up voting or down voting effects these posts.

urf buff: infinite portals no urf buff: garbage item with a cooldown that might as well be an hour long. would only be bought by players who don't know about the exception and are hoping for infinite portals, making it a trap item. finding the sweet spot means time and effort spent testing and balancing the game mode which isn't really the point of featured game modes

yet one of the best ways to slow down any kind of minion wave and to the point where you might even pull back a game because of that so I'm sorry if i like the item the way it is and want it back

You want it back? It's still around in blind and draft pick.

really? youre getting the item when behind?

i usually get it when im ahead and my team has a certain level of map control to apply pressure to multiple lanes simultaneously. it always striked me as a "win more" item rather can a comeback item.

you either force the enemy team to split up while you can group, and then completely roll over them and end the game, or theyll slow but steady lose turrets on sidelanes while trying to defend against your teams siege.

its a good defense against minions when you are needed else where and granted it does sound better as an offensive but there is some defensive uses that i love
