Am I the only one who thinks this game doesn't even need summoner spells at all aside form smite, and would be better off without them?
Just sayin, these giant cooldowns that drastically change a champions playstyle when they're off cooldown are counter-productive Imo.
Draqone2 votesYes and no.
This game needs a single Summoner Spell but it does not need 2 slots.
Why do we need a single summoner spell? Because that's the only thing that makes it possible to survive if you get counter picked. Examples are a defensive summoner vs a midlane zed, cleanse vs lissandra, a teleport for "I am going to ignore my counter and get a double kill botlane" etc etc.
Smite is for junglers so they don't have lane counter matchups anyway.
The thing is this game already works like this. Flash is a permanent summoner spell on all champions so we are effectively limited to one summoner spell.
Kai Guy1 votesI feel they add to the game, if anything i would be happy to see a few more. Some times a good solution to a counter pick is ya run exhaust or barrier. Other times your comp needs Tele or their comp requires ya to rock Cleanse. I enjoy options and things that tweak the game-play. So politely i disagree but i will not be down voting ya for this.
OverpoweredSoap1 votesWell.
Everyone is balanced around flash now anyways.
But if we removed Flash, another summoner spell would just rise up and be mandatory imo.
It would be interesting to see how the game played without summoner spells though. However, I do think assassins would probably be a lot stronger if there were no summoner spells.
