Honestly, nobody would be bummed about NB not being permanent if we actually had a regular RGM schedule (that isn’t just swapping between Poro King and Ascension)

Even just one patch/month.

When's the last time Ascension was even available, like 2 years ago?

I would matter less cancelling it if the was actually a real RGm going on... But no it's 1-2 per years now, really sucks

They werent wrong though. After a couple of days, Nexus Blitz kind of gets old

In my opinion, the more 'unique' and 'wacky' you make something, the more likely it is to get older faster. The events in Blitz were pretty fun, but their novelty starts to wear off after you get used to it all. I'd prefer something subtlety faster, and not trying to grab my attention with fireworks constantly.

Yeah this. The reason aram works so well is literally because of how simple it is. We need more modes like that.

Yeah like Dominion, Kappa.

I just wanna yeet some kids into a black hole or play Graves on the Project mode even though he definitely should not be available there as an assassin type marksman. Is that too much to ask?

I think RGM's are better when they aren't "League, but X" but feel more like radically different custom games with different objectives like the old Warcraft 3 custom game days, but even when RGM was a thing all we got was "League, but low cooldowns" and "League, but ARAM, but with a big poro." It's so frustrating, I have more fun having different experiences than altered ones but those game modes never return.

Thank you Tencent budget cuts.

For the millionth time, Nexus Blitz was an EXPERIMENTAL permanent game mode. IT WAS NOT GARENTEED TO STAY. They said it'll come back, so that's fine. Riot is going to test more of these sorts of gamemodes and eventually one will be immortalized.

I really didn't like nexus blitz. I'm sorry that it's gone for those of you who really enjoyed it, but it wasn't good for me.

I really hope that because they're taking a pass at ARAM they will take a look at Treeline next. That's actually my absolute favourite map, with quick matches and lots of bickering and team fights throughout. Maybe if they can learn why these three maps that they have installed permanently have such a solid following, they can build something that the players can enjoy on a more constant way.
