The new Invasion mod needs a rework + Why i think its broken besides just insane difficulty

I know many players have already written similiar things, but just in case even one Rioter has not understood whats wrong with this event, here are my thoughts.

    1. For every mission you need a premade team. Seriously i understand you want some kind of team feeling adventure mode but this is just horrible since there is no alternative to do any missions without having at least 5 active friends willing to play this ( and im sure most dont ) and if you dont YOU CANT PARTICIPATE AT ALL. Why is Premade mandatory for the missions?
    1. If you are not premade its basically already lost, and even if you are... YOU CANT WIN WITHOUT CERTAIN CHAMPS / COMPS. Now i understand that its always some champs working with other champs will be better than others, but in this mode if you dont have a Poppy in your Team or a Janna Support ( and with random players you usually wont get that ) its already gg. This is not a skill based mode, if you dont know what champs you take its lost, if you are a premade team which knows exactly what champs you can take its at least winnable.
    1. There is basically only one level which blocks anyone from progressing, win it and you win the game, loose it and you wasted 20 minutes Of course everyone knows what im talking about, the other levels are quite fair. Challenging but always fair. If you loose it you know you just did it wrong and till now i always won the first rounds UNTIL YOU DECIDED TO TURN THIS INTO A FUCKING VELKOZ BULLETHELL. Seriously you give us only a few champs to choose from? Only 1 Tank is in it?? and then you say survive a bullethell in which Velkoz shoots from every direction and skarners chase and ult you??? Every ADC/Mage gets 2 shoted by those things, one skarner and your whole team is dead.

So good luck if you dont have Poppy in your team surviving Velkoz :) Oh and also Good luck surviving when you realize he can fucking ult :)

PS: Did i already tell you if the Vel Q hits you it also splits up and hits 2 other of your teammates for 50% of their health? :)

It's been 1 day. Just let it chill. The Vel'koz aren't even as numerous as they were the first day of Pbe and people are trading tips now to beat it. I think it's fine.

Beat Onslaught mode 5 times. 4 times in 5 man premade once in a PuG. Comp really doesn't matter from what I've seen. Crushed it with 3 ADC's and 2 supports. built double knights vow so the supports could sustain off of ADC damage.

The moving velkoz map isn't hard at all, and sometimes you'll get a randomized version of it that's incredibly easy.(almost no spawns) you can also speed boost + flash to the end goal and everything will stop immediately.

Take your time and just do the mechanics since getting hit with anything will melt you. one of the bullets from the boss halves you.

I feel like getting the 2nd Icon and getting the missions done is the most difficult part of the game mode. Playing perfectly to get an S rank clear is pretty insane. And the missions force you to play a set comp in order to win.

It is hard. Yeah. I may say that the boss is easy. I find all the other things harder. Yeah, it is hard and sometimes it's unfair but it is possible. Already beat the game like 5-6 times.
