Can we get Showdown back this Christmas?

Back in Season 3 there was a featured gamemode during Christmas time called Snowdown Showdown. It was a 2v2 on the howling abyss. To win, you and your partner would either have to get to a cumulative 100 cs first or (most likely) score 2 kills first.

It was a short and fast paced gamemode that was quite fun that had some really interesting comps and really helped teamwork skills. I think it would be fun to get it back this year

Yes please, Snowdown Showdown 2013 was so good! We need something fun this year to make up for the abject failure that was the Harrowing.

tbh, after what happened with Halloween we'll be luck to even have Snowdown let alone Snowdown Showdown...

I swear if they do the christmas skins in the beginning of janurary...

This was SO BAD though.

You lose even if your ally dies twice, and you get next to nothing for playing, aside from it being boring to play.

I'd risk installing LoL again if we had some good(!) event mode. Otherwise, meh gonna play anything else, even tetris.

As long as they use a modified version of teambuilder for matchmaking...

Like, you choose your champion + runes & masteries, 5 champions you don't want to play against, then hit "Queue up" and find an opponent in less than 20 seconds.

The big problem of the original showdown was that the games were sometimes shorter than the time it took for the set-up.
