Can we get different Types of Target Dummies in Practice Tool?

Pretty self-explanatory, if you're like me and like to mess around in practice tool then you realized probably that you can't really test out something like how would a build work vs a 300 armor/Mr enemy or how would it work vs a 70 armor squishy,or how the fact that you can only choose a 10k hp dummy messes up some numbers when you use certain items like Botrk or Liandry .

I'd just like to see some variety in the Dummy department implemented so we can better test some things vs high resistance targets,even better it would be to have the ability to invite at least 1 person,so many times i wonder which build is better for a 1v1 scenario but you can't really test that out in a regular game because there's too many variables,you could make a custom game but you'd still have to waste at least 15 minutes farming to get some items to test.

Also you can't even test things like Tenacity in practice tool,at least have one dummy that can CC and show the time that stun/root/slow was in place so we can test out different options like Legend: Tenacity and how it pairs with merc treads

I would like a dummy that you can actually kill, so we can actually do certain executions in the mode.

Alright we need These kind of dummys :

Adjustable : Makes you able to adjust HP, Mr and Armor of the dummy, no matter if allied or enemy

Turret Dummy : Auto atacks nearby Allied dummy, you can adjust Crit chance, ad, Lethality, Crit dmg, and Armor penetration, atack speed, and Give them certain items like item 3153 or item 3123

Mobile dummy : Walks a set path, you can adjust slow resistance, tenacity, and Combat/out of combat movespeed

Any other bright ideas?

It would also be nice to have a dummy that could easily tell you how much something healed / shielded for so you can test things like that out as well :S

They need to completely overhaul the Practice Tool using our feedback

Instead of an actual dummy, it'd be pretty cool if we could spawn champions.

Like Spawn> Pick Champion Then, set level and items on champion.

Ex: Spawn - Tabbed Window comes out - Pick Maokai from list like the forums. Items - Tabbed Window comes out - Click item 3076 item 3047 item 3800 from list like the forums. Level - Slider or something, 1-18. Set to 14. Set - Creates cursor to set spawn location. Spawns Level 14 Maokai with item 3076 item 3047 item 3800 equipped at targeted location. The Maokai doesn't attack or anything, just acts as a target dummy except with realistic stats to practice against.

That'd be some fancy shit right there.

also an option for full stacking stuff that requies stacks like item 3003

I'd like a dummy that attacks so you could test differing armor/health scenarios and find a good balance

Any one expecting improved dummies in this mode, just look at dasy AI from ivern and imagine that's your upgraded dummies.

+1 In my experience, practice mode feels extremely useless right now (other than testing what the DPS of a build is or CSing). This is a great idea.

This is actually a really good idea! Riot where you be at ?

Oh my god! I'm not the only one who thinks something about Practice Tool.

I created a thread about a week ago on Turkish boards. It is about "Moving Dummies." For example, there are some movements will be available for dummies, like zigzag dummies, to practice skillshots.

If anyone knows Turkish, here is my full text:

I want my dummies to be Teemo

Why would u ever want something besides teemo???

I think we need a Training Grounds map similar to Overwatch's testing mode - with dummies that perform specific actions, are capable of dying/respawning, etc.

Giving us better practice dummies is at the top of my wishlist of features for this game. I love to experiment with different builds and strategies, but I don't want to have to do tedious math all day to optimize when a fully functional practice tool would allow me to achieve the same thing in minutes. Sometimes I just can't be bothered to do the math. And many players don't even know how to do it, or where to find the information to do it.

A million health dummy with 100 MR is not useful for any kind of build testing. %health is all screwed up, and no champion has a base of 100 MR even at level 18.

We need the option to set the health and resistance of the dummy, or at the very least to select from a few options that better reflect real enemy champions.
