The modes we came to love... and to forget.

I believe it is an ongoing issue that League of Legends has no game modes. 5v5, dominion, ARAM, and 3v3 get so repetitive I don't mind leaving my long matches for Pong or Minesweeper. 3v3 and 5v5 are so competitive when you're on a team full of "pros" and "sloths". They either leave the game if their team sucks (which happens the majority of the time) or they suck (every time). I have a wonderful K/D in this game, but I quit games often. I suck.

There's such thing as BAD games, yes, but WHERE DO WE GO FOR BAD GAMES WITHOUT GETTING BANNED? League of Legends can make some people mental just because their moms told them to do the dishes "now or i throw your **** out the window". I've seen people punch walls IN REAL LIFE over dying in this game.

I want to fight for the game modes that people can relax in like Hexakill or One for All. Hell, why not make King of the Scar or Donger Dash a legit thing to queue for? My friends go missing for an hour because of a stupid 5v5? Come on, Rito. I feel bad to have to kick someone just because theres only a max of five players in any legit mod in League. That breaks my selfless heart.

League should be more of a game, not a competitive chore all the time. I understand you guys at HQ are giving us some time to play the old modes (One for all, Hexakill, etc) but they should stay for good! I also find it annoying that playing 3v3 doesn't pay out around what a 5v5 game can. The goal of every game in League is to win, but me winning in a mode I like isn't what pays out? ARAM is rigged so I don't mind that having a low payout.

This game should have a place for noobs and newbs alike to call home. This game should have modes that involve fighting your best friend to the death in a 1v1 duel where nobody can jump in and say "**** you I need the gold"(5v5 all day). Yes, some of these things ARE possible but it's really hard to get some custom games rolling when people are scrolling down a series of AFK's and troll lobbies. This needs to be something you queue into.

For now, I believe League is a good game, but I think were just playing to become slaves and dream of joining their tournaments when that won't happen. Please, think of something.item 2050 item 3070

Online pvp games are competitive though.. Maybe find a different game like Brawlhalla.

Heh, don't we all.

Basically, Riot doesn't have any interests to our knowledge of making another permanent game mode. Modes like One for All and URF are incredibly difficult to balance and would take up a considerable amount of playtesting resources to execute properly every day.

But it's fairly easy to set up some of the experiences you want in a custom game (coming from someone who 1v1s 7 days a week). Just set up a room and challenge a friend or stranger to play with and pick your favorite champion. The ABAM community is fairly nice, and if you happen to find a room with 7-9/10 players, just join for a quick teamfighting frenzy. It's what I do when I feel overwhelmed with the regular 5v5s.

If you play a competitive game then expect it to be that. There is a winner and loser in every game. If you do not play to win in a competitive game and come to the boards and spout all this BS you are spouting then you deserve all the flack that comes your way.

There are other games you can play for fun. There are just too many casual players who don't understand that and play league and expect it to be different. Toxicity is the result of a casual player being a casual player in a competitive atmosphere, PERIOD.

Too bad the people at RIOT don't get it either.

The fact that they don't just tells me they are fine making their money any way they can with no regard to a healthy gaming atmosphere.
