Dear Riot: New Summoner Spells / Passive Summoners

ADC Yuumi··1 votes·1,303 views

Dear Riot, Have you considered making more summoner spells?

After I've looked back at many of the summoner spells, and saw there was mostly enough for all cases; I wondered what you would do if you made more?

summoner 21 summoner 1 summoner 3 For example, these are some advanced summoner spells you need skill to use. summoner 7 summoner 14 summoner 6 summoner 12 These are basic and used by all no matter the kind of player. summoner 11 This is mandatory because of the jungle.

From what I've seen, Riot never really gives summoner spells which are flat-out stats besides heal (Ex. summoner 13 Mana Restoration) and there hasn't been any other offensive spells besides Ignite in SR. (Ex. summoner 32 A long-range dash.)

And a few of the special summoner spells, like {{summoner:50}} the revival spell; is a Summoner Passive ability. Will we be ever seeing anymore summoner passives?

If any Rioter (preferably one from the balance / dev team) answers, tell me how in-depth you are to summoner spells and why none of them are passives?

If anyone from the community answers, what kind of summoner spells would you be willing to see?

no new summoners before they manage to balance out the state of the game pls. even though it'd be cool to see one of the core mechanics change and have more diversity, it'd be simply too big of a risk.

If you think the game is out of balance because of Akali, she takes a whole lot of skill to become a threat. So you need to address the player's playstyle before battling against her if you want a chance. However, someone like Brand can completely counter her. ( CC and AoE effects are best against Akali. )

If it's Zoe, her weakness is melee fighters or melee assassins. Anyone close to her can kill her easily. Xin Zhao, Yasuo and Diana are extremely good against Zoe.

Yasuo is a toughie, but it comes down to ganking him away from minions. For example, his mobility is severely reduced if you're fighting in the river. It's also easier to beat Yasuo if in a losing lane because of the lack of minions he can use. His power comes solely from his ultimate, so CC him when he has his Q3 up.

damage is too high. secondly i never stated a problem with any champion. btw the problem with akali is that she can win trades while under your tower while we are at it.

the point i was try to make in my previous comment was that you shouldnt introduce new mechanics when the game is out of balance, it'd be the same as kicking a wooden toy castle over before the glue has dried
