Will Dominion ever make a comeback?

(This is related to gameplay, game modes. Also GD is filled with shitposting, so posting here)

Honestly, it was taken down because of "bots and not enough players" but 3v3 has just as many bots and barely anyone plays it. I'd love to be able to play a relaxed or fun game without having to worry about toxic players/salt, but nope.

Reasons Dominion was great:

  • Short Games (Averaging around 12~25 minutes, compared to SR with 40 minutes+ and Aram games which can also get long)
  • Relaxed (Not having to cs and poke/take turrets)
  • Fun (Kill enemies, take points, done)
  • Strategy is required (Compared to other modes, you could start 2 bot and take enemy bot and then hold it later or have teammates try and steal enemy mid while enemy is contesting top, etc)

Why Dominion was removed:

  • "Small" Playerbase (Long Queue times, dedicated players didn't particularly care though)
  • "Bots" (Bots moved elsewhere and play other modes now, i.e. 3v3, those "noobs" with ghost and heal and just run down)
  • "One person would be forced bot" (This is a complete joke, some people want to be bot because they're good at bot. Also ofttimes they would leave bot to help elsewhere or trade with others.)

Why Definitely Not Dominion is garbage (I mean that in the nicest way possible, not really):

  • The points do not regenerate, so you cannot hold them indefinitely. Impairs strategies.
  • Ultra minions are ridiculous and make it much more difficult to hold a point.
  • Can dive whenever, due to minions being plentiful and have 5 top 24/7.
  • Does not resemble Dominion whatsoever, is an "arena" mode (just fighting, zero strategy)

**So, honestly, why can we not have the original Dominion back? **
