Any chance we can have a few missions that aren't dedicated to Summoner's Rift, or at least have alternate criteria that can be accomplished on Howling Abyss or Twisted Treeline?

Sincerely, Team ARAM.

Riot has expressed that they don't like the missions that force you to play other game modes (outside of specific events like the recent Star Guardian one); however, I certainly think that the missions shouldn't be ONLY Summoner's Rift, unless it's something that can only be done on Summoner's Rift. For example, killing 50 towers is something you can do on both ARAM and Twisted Treeline, so why make it Summoner's Rift only?

Can't wait for missions like:

  • Win a game of ARAM...on Summoner's Rift.
  • Kill Vilemaw 5 times...on Summoner's Rift.
  • Become Ascended 3 times in one game...on Summoner's Rift. Obligatory must equip a specific icon and only available in a 10-man premade (yes, your entire team plus the enemy team).

Although I understand these current missions being targeted at SR because that's where Worlds takes place, or event-based ones like the Star Guardian missions, as an avid ARAM player it's a little disappointing to see the majority of missions only available on a certain map (even when it was said they don't want to force players to play a certain map...). But rather than making every single mission neutral, I'd like to see missions that can be completed in alternate ways. Maybe something like:

  • Win 3 SR games OR 15 HA/TT games. It still slightly promotes SR since it requires less wins, but it allows the players who enjoy the other maps a chance to participate as well.

Warmly, a fellow member of Team ARAM.

What the title made me think was:

"I'm playing League of Legends giggles on Summoner's Rift!" "Hey, Squidward! Guess what! I'm farming creeps! On Summoner's Rift!" "Look at me, I'm getting a double kill! On Summoner's Rift!" "AHH, I FAILED A TOWERDIVE! On Summoner's Rift!"

I agree, though, there need to be more missions that let you play on any map.

To be fair the missions are structured around Worlds and Worlds is played on Summoner's Rift. Even then, SR is League's premier game mode, most things will be structured with it in mind.

This isn't to say that missions that can be completed in any game mode wouldn't be appreciated.

I know Riot said that they choose to answer questions based on how many people are asking them. If we band together and ask Riot why they are restricting Missions to Summoner's Rift when the requirements could just as easily be fulfilled on Twisted Treeline or Howling Abyss, we might get an answer. https://ask.leagueoflegends.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

It may not help the general environment of SR, if a lot of people who don't want to play SR are now there to try to complete quests.

... next patch ...

kill 5 barons on the Howling Abyss.

And you thought the other missions were hard.

I agree Mkyner and was actually about to post a similar thread. Why is it that they are only doing SR as a requirement when they really shouldn't have any map type listed.

I honestly felt that the Yasuo vs Riven missions were the best. Most of them were get so many kills or assist or towers or wins, etc. They weren't all based on map type. While they did have some that were, they got bad responses from us in the community. I think it's odd that they are forcing us to play SR to complete missions if we want any of the cool stuff for them. (segregating players that don't always play SR to not be able to achieve something or forcing them to play that mode if they don't like it is not a good idea for Riot to have)

If they could make all future missions not require a game mode even if you had objectives like kill baron or dragon with other requirements it would allow you to complete them in other game modes and then play a SR match or two to get the dragon/baron parts complete.

I think the reason is because they are "world's missions" these missions are inspired the world's event which if you didn't already know is where the best players in the world battle it out on... summoner's rift. seems fair they would theme it around that.

But if you aren't on SR then how can you play LCS Simulator? We have awesome game modes like URF/Hexakill/One For All locked in a fucking vault somewhere, TT is outdated as shit, and we are force fed bad RGMs that push us back into SR. I always find it funny that if it weren't for fun custom games, LoL and mobas would never had been born, and the world's biggest moba is doing everything to keep us from playing anything besides one map.

Personally, I can't stand SR anymore, after almost a decade of playing it. I mainly ARAM my way through the seasons now, in hopes of the RGM blessing us with one of 'the big three'.

It's pretty clear at this point that Riot wants us playing LCS Sim over letting the monkeys choose what they prefer, so the best RGMs will always be gated and TT will always be forgotten.

I have over 2k (maybe 3)games on ARAM, and been playing SR for the missions. I found I can bear to play at least a couple SR games a day know. Normally didn't like to because of the snowballing factor and takes a long time to walk around. Pretty sure someone complained about playing Aram and they put an end to those missions. At least most of this weeks missions can be completed without SR and these missions had been set in stone for over a month now.

Fort twisted treeline to fort Aram, what is your current qeue time? over KSHHT

They should either be on all game modes or just stay as it is, I absolutely despise ARAM so me being forced to play it would be horrible while I doubt that you despise summoner's rift.

Colgate Gator10/31/2017, 6:06:15 PM2 votes

I despise Aram, TT and al these half baked game modes, so I'd really rather not, unless they were a choice in how to approach the missions.

honestly wouldn't it bring tons of people unfamiliar with those modes into them, and saturate them with lost confused peeps? I could easily imagine a bunch of high and mighty twisted tree line or aram peeps getting on and complaining about how all these dumb rift peasants are ruining the scene.
