Request for an Option in the Minimap

Currently, the ring around champions, on the minimap, is either blue or red. Would it be easy to implement a setting that allows the user to change the exact color of his teammates and the enemy team's circles individually based on the scoreboard layout? As in, if I organize the scoreboard with the jungler always on the bottom, I could use this setting to make the bottom enemy a bright yellow, making the enemy jungler distinct and more noticeable out of my peripheral vision.

This feature, if implemented, would make minimap analysis easier. Say there are three enemies mid, one bot, and one in the fog of war. If the three mid are all on top of each other, it can make it hard to quickly figure out which enemies are mid. The enemy bot is easily accounted for. That then makes the enemy in the fog of war easier to identify, allowing for smarter map movement.

So please, Rito , can you implement this feature? I feel that the adjustable scoreboard has so much more potential than is currently being used.

This would be freaking awesome.

For players who lack map awareness, and for players who need more information at a glance. Yes please. +1

This would be freaking awesome.

And that is why it will never happen

The only issue I see is it just becoming a mess of colors which may create more confusion rather than solve it.

I don't think so. It's up to the player how much they would want to divert from the current default. If they just wanted the jungler to be bright yellow, to hopefully catch their eye immediately when they exit the fog of war, then that's all they have to do. If they are someone who wants a color for each role, that way they can immediately see that the adc isn't present with her team, etc, then it can be super useful.

Yes. That way I can get that minor, tiny satisfaction from giving that one toxic teammate a horrendous color, like mustard green. +1 for my petty vengeance.
