Since Nexus Blitz is going to be a permanent alternative to Summoner's Rift...
Can we make Summoner's Rift the 40-50 minute mode again and give Nexus Blitz the 15-20 minute games?

40-50 is a bit much
35-45 should be default
going to 50 is fine but i dont want it to be the "norm"
- Makes new 15 minute map.
- Makes SR 5 minutes long so the new map can be the long game mode. [sg-lux-2]
Just longer games again on SR would be nice. It means they could buff towers again and make them stronger because theres a competitive 15 minute alternative to SR.
pls
we can dream
Wow it's almost like they had this kind of option 3 years ago. A separate game mode that's fast and fun compared to SR. I can't quite put my finger on it. What was it called again?
And while at it they should consider some major balance changes for Summoners Rift, as specially when it comes to early game bursting and snowballing.
Since they are going to be releasing a dominion alternative mode, where people can just blow each other up as soon as they respawn non stop.
- First major change would be to nerf damage across the whole Rune system when playing in Summoners Rift.
- Buff defensive items for damage dealers in Summoners Rift.
- Nerf certain items (Trinity Sheen Part, Stormrazor, Duskblade) in Summoners Rift.
- Nerf offensive summoner spell efficiency in Summoners Rift (ignite).
- Make Towers strong in Summoners Rift (increase their damage, increase their health and stats).
- Change Rift Herald to not be a tower based objective in Summoners Rift (not an essential change, but one that could be considered).
Then once some of these changes are considered and would be applied, anything else that could prove to still cause major snowballing could be slowly nerfed from there on.
INB4 riot is gonna blame Nexus Blitz for losing players like they did with URF.
the 40-50 minute
it would kill early game champions and we would be in the same situation as now,the only difference is that the free elo would come from lategame scaling champions instead of early game snowballer
30/35 minutes and it's ok
I love it
Please! I want slow games again where i lane for the first 20 mins and teamfights last around 10 seconds instead of 1.
40 minutes average is perfect, being between 35 and 45 min games. 50 and 30 minute games being rare.
I would love it
Nexus Blitz is INSANE fun, I love it.
I honestly hope it becomes permanent.
i miss the one hours game you would get once a day during season 3 and 4 ;-;

THIS!!! GIVE THIS MAN A COOKIE!!
Agreed. Nexus Blitz had found a way to keep the game interesting yet make it short. SR is artificially short by making it super snowbally.
Make Nexus Blitz shorter, faster level ups, meanwhile make Summoner's Rift longer and better scaling. Boom. Done.
Idk where the ideal '40+ min game' came from, even before this season the average game was about 25-35 min and pass 40 min was already a lot, also if you want to climb in ranked, who the f could/would play ~40 min every game? It's just a torture and stressful after 2/3 games
Imo the big difference is that before a balanced game was a win after a lot of pushes to get down the towers and you had to win couple of relatively long team fights for that, now the first team that wins the first team fight(the first team that one-shoot the other one) when the baron spawn almost always wins, not even baron you can win a team fight and literally run it down mid and blow up the base open even if it's from the tier 1 tower all the way to at least the inib.
You do realize this is an experimental mode? It's essentially a WIP RGM mode. The experimental modes may become permanent "if they survive the first tests" but it doesn't mean the modes themselves will become permanent. It's a huge maybe.
But the idea is nice.
Wait why it's called "blitz"? I mean, it's probably longer than SR.
Yea roughly... 38 minutes and 26.35 seconds for the average game time would be perfect.
i would agree if assassins didnt fall off so hard
