Rotating Gamemode

Hey guys,

I just wanted to ask what you guys think about Arurf again. I know a lot of people seem to like it but for me it feels like a boring gamemode which I rather skip. I've been waiting for Ascension for what feels like ages now? But also Hexakill is a fun gamemode imo as well as black market brawlers and one for all. But Ascension is definitely my favourite. I feel like urf (or any variant of urf) and legend of the poro king (or variants) come way more often. Is this true? Just wanted to know how you guys feel about this.

In my opinion, URF and ARURF aren't in the rotation enough. Only recently have they been releasing ARURF as a game mode that comes up "somewhat often". When Rotating Game Modes were released, anyway, URF was really only an April Fools joke that they brought back a few times as a fun, fast, and crazy game mode as an event or something.

Truly, I believe that RIOT has been slacking on the Rotating Game Mode (RGM) mechanic in general. I know they've announced that they won't be doing the whole RGM thing the same anymore, and that they would be focusing more on events, but I personally think they should go back to the way they used to be when they first released RGMs.. Put them on the weekend schedule again. Release them evenly, like on an actual rotation. Create item restrictions for each game mode (ex: take out warmogs for ascension or something along those lines..) and let people figure out their builds from there.

I agree that recently ARURF has been the more popular game mode that they've been releasing. I do miss Ascension, and Nexus Siege, and I did enjoy the 5v5 thresh battle mode, but I also love URF and ARURF more than any other LoL game mode I've played. So I'm a fan of them releasing it for play more often.

PS: I actually looked up "Rotating Game Mode LoL" on Google today in hopes of finding when the next RGM might be, and I found your post. I got halfway through writing this reply before seeing that ARURF was available to play again today. I was pleasantly surprised there was a RGM out right now :D KogMaw

Ah yes it could be that because Arurf already came twice the past few weeks it seems like it came more often than other gamemodes ^^"

I agree with you that the old mechanic was better. It doesn't necessarily needs to be on weekend only but why not 1 RGM for a week every 2 weeks? I'm fine with an even rotation. All RGM are fun in their own way and I definitely understand arurf is loved by many players :) let's hope we'll get a schedule in the future. I really miss my dear Ascension.
