Add option to turn off Christmas Rift (Snow map)

TobeyT3··11 votes·9,705 views

Ever since the Christmas Rift came out, i stopped playing normals. The snow dropped my FPS hard, from 50-60 to 30-40. This also hurts the hell out of my eyes. Please add an option to turn off the Christmas theme! Thx Rito

I wish they'd add an option to ADD it to ranked. I'm missing out because I'm trying to grind out before it gets too late in the season.

I have to agreed with that. In this time im not at my home and i have to play with an old laptop. With the classic map it was "fine" but with the christmas one it's really unplayable.

I find it odd that its been over a week sicne the release of the client and there have been several comlaints about the snow. I'm very disappointed that riot hasn't done anything to ammend this issue....

So pretty much you don't play ARAM? Since that has snow and all that. If you don't play any games modes except Normals, then why are you playing League? That's totally boring, you know. And besides, color can change how certain Champs play based on their own colors. Going and playing passively because you see your ally Shockblade Zed creeping up on a Champ and warning him not to because you think it's obvious as you see brown and green, when in fact he could have gotten the kill because his white color blended well enough with the WHITE SNOW that it gave him that slight edge over his opponents, is pretty much a great reason as to why this will never happen. He obviously isn't invisible, but because his white color blends in well enough with the snow they are slightly less accurate. Mainly: color tactics are just as important in League as the Fog of War in terms of visuals. People seeing different colors than others alters perception between those players, essentially creating hidden or unpredictable advantage/disadvantage which absolutely ruins the game. Not to mention that the game would essentially be running two different versions of the same game at the same time (since you're making it an option and not manditory...you're complaining about lag now, just wait till your toaster tries running two different versions of Rumble in a teamfight against the likes of Zyra or Zac or Jax. Just. NO.

There are custom maps out there and riot dont mind it, why would they mind having an option to turn off the snowdown themed summoner rift? On top of that, the skins that would give that "slight advantage" in the new summoners rift are mostly snowdown themed skins, and skins shouldnt give advantage to the players since that would make it "slightly" pay to win.

my fps has gone to shit

i thought one of league's selling points was that its an incredibly low-resource game than even crap computers can run. new client and new map screws over so many people
