Would it be possible to get something like "Customizable Camera Locking"?

Basically what I mean by "Customizable Camera Locking" is having an option to lock our camera in different ways that still follow our Champion's movement, but have the camera more focused around a certain area/view.

The reason for asking for this is that I prefer playing with my camera locked on my character, but feel that playing that way on the Red Side or on the Top half of ARAM leads me to having a disadvantage due to the HUD blocking a fairly large amount of my view towards the bottom/opposite areas.

I've always thought this should be implemented myself. Be great to be able to lock the camera, with your character more towards the top of the screen, then in the middle, or anywhere you want your character to be. But then people bitch about 'oh it takes more skill out of the game'.

I completely understand where you're coming from, playing on the red side as ADC I would love to be able to lock the camera with my champion a bit further up and to the right, but a forseeable issue would be a more limited range of movement. When I unlock my camera I try to keep my champ right in the top right corner (or there about) so I can see the entirety of the minion waves, and almost everything my enemy laners do, but if the camer were locked like that I'd have a really hard time backing off if they got super aggresive or if a gank came while I was pushed. You'd have to unlock the camera, recenter/reorient yourself, and then either relock it with you in the center, or move with the camera unlocked.seems like it might end up being more trouble than its worth in situations like that. The easiest solution I can think of would be to be able to bind several different camera positions to your keyboard, but then if you screw up and hit the wrong one you're dead.
