@Riot: Will new runes replace summoner spells?
Since we are getting new runes. Any thoughts of getting new summoner spells? I know I have asked this before, I just wanted to bring it up to the fore front again, so more people have a chance to see it.
I think league of legends at its core, is a strategy game. I would love to see more thought go into the game during champ select and rune/masteries. With that being said, there are some niche summoner spell that were removed for various reasons, that I thought added a lot of interesting mechanics to the game.
- Revive
- Clarity
- promote
- Clairvoyance
While a lot of these have been replaced with items that have similar affects, I always thought summoner spells were used as game defying plays that changed the outcome of a fight. ( rather than who uses flash better ).. So with that being said, while I understand that certain runes will cover this aspect better, will the new rune system outclass summoner spells? or will there be a chance to get a few more summoner spells as well?
FinalNote : I think the new rune pixie or whatever it is , (the one that makes that cute animal dash to your enemy or allies) works better as a summoner spell than a rune, but that's just my opinion
