Practice Mode Ideas
So, with the new practice mode being bandied about by Rioters, I have a few suggestions to take into consideration.
Coached 5v5 Mode This mode will be for premade teams of 5 and a coach. Basically, there will be a VS Bots mode and a PVP mode, with 6 players being selected for the teams (one will be designated "Coach"), with a blind pick mode. In game, the coach will have no impact in terms of play, but will have the ability to use more complicated pings to show more detailed gameplay information, be able to use chat, click into players to read ability scalings and stats, and be able to pause the game (If the other coach agrees when in PVP).
Minion Farm PVP This mode will be a 1v1 mode in Summoner's Rift (with top and bottom lanes and jungle blocked off). Basically, it will be your standard 1v1, but with a minion tally for both players made visible to the other players. Once a player reaches a certain minion farm count, they win.
