The score is something like 7-20 in Nexus blitz

Marshbouy··1 votes·1,245 views

The enemy team is winning by 13 kills.

New event spawns. It's "kill the teemo"

The teemo spawns in the middle of the enemies towers and runs into their side of the jungle.


The kill score is 10-30

The enemy is up 20 kills.

New event. It's "capture the point"

The point spawns in the center of the map near no towers.


What happened to the gamemode trying to benefit people who are behind? Did they decide that the game should be decided in the first 3 minutes because a back and forth battle is too much fun?

I don't understand riot's sadistic desire to kill their only game. Combine all this BS with the crap balancing, the clear favoritism of certain champions, and the piss-poor matchmaking, it's impossible to have any fun.

its almost like the mode is still in development and shouldn't have the cap points favoring 1 side even tho they do, punishing you for doing well shouldn't be a mechanic when you are already easier to kill due to the fire buff/debuff

They need to favor the losing side or they will always favor the winning side. If the score is 1-5, who do you think is going to win Bardle Royale? Who do you think is going to get the massive buff to their team that will help their victory?

The people who have 5 kills are going to win most of the time. They will get a team buff like BF shields or GA and continue to press the advantage, shoving the team that's behind even further.

punishing you for doing well shouldn't be a mechanic

Yes it should in order to keep a game from being decided at the 3 minute mark. If there isn't anything from stopping a team from snowballing out of control, they will snowball out of control. I'm not sure how that's hard to see.

when you are already easier to kill due to the fire buff/debuff

lol the fire buff is just a straight buff for anyone who isn't a 1v5ing monkey.

it is possible to have fun if you dont care about winning. (which everyone does). me i just sit back and play to play. if my team wins, great. if not then ok. i dont flame the hell out of my team and report because we lost. what players dont realize is it is just a game. underneath all the piss poor meta, toxic players, and constant updates, it is just a game. what is the most common reason to start playing any kind of game? it looks fun. but when you get into it and see how nasty and toxic the community is you are forced to either adapt and become toxic yourself (bad idea) or leave cause you can't handle it (also bad). but if you focus on only the fun aspect and not the nasty ass players you can have a better time.

The whole "it's fun if you don't care about winning" works until suddenly you realize that everyone on your team is 0/6, the enemy team has BF shields, and is up 10k gold. At that point you can't even play because you can't even fight the enemy team anymore.

my reason still stands. the enemy could have fucking BF shields, two are On Fire, and they have Blitzcrank minions. it could be fucking 40 to 6. you know you cant win but again, if you dont care about winning then you dont care how fed the enemy is. long as you play to the end (and not by surrender means) then that is all that matters. your turn.

my point also still stands. There's no fun in getting one shot when you walk out of fountain.

It seems to me the events are spawn about where minion waves meet, not which side is "winning"

A team doing well will have minions shoved up usually, which spawns the events closer to the losing side making it appear like its just benefiting the team that's behind.
