If you're going to add a difficult mechanic like Sion's ult, please give us a practice mode

I am one of the players who really like Sion's new ultimate as it gives the game another difficult mechanic and actually something that is rewarding for landing it.

However, I really suck and I miss 90% of my ultimate everytime I play as him. Many Sions i see also misses most of their ult. This sometimes create toxicity among teammates who will just shout and trashtalk you for missing this skill and ending up being a useless meat sandbag.

I really hope that there is a mode that I can practice a champ without having to go into a custom, farm to6, use it once, and then wait another 2 minutes to use it again. The lack of this mode encourages people to not give a care and would just run into normals and perform horribly with their skills. tldr; please give me somewhere to practice sion's ult. Or if you're kind enough give us like a flash game where the controls are similar to sion's ult.

Thank you.

5v5 with friends Coop vs AI Custom Bot games Normal Blind Normal Draft

If you immediately bring Sion to ranked games without any practice, you deserve to miss what is essentially a slightly guide-able Ashe arrow.

It's called "Coop vs. AI"

The actual problem with Sion's ult is that it's locked at 950 speed, which isn't nearly fast enough to be viable. You can literally walk out of the way of it with just boots if he uses it from off screen, not that the GLOBAL WARNING (which even global ults don't have) helps any.

Riot should've left fucking URF mode available on custom-bots so people can go and practice whatever mechanic they like Let it be wall jumps, lee ward jump combos, riven skill canceling, or shit like Sion's new ultimate

It's called Introductory Bots, Beginner Bots, and Intermediate Bots.

Or create a Custom Game and start with zero bots in Summoner's Rift, and just beat up on minions until six, and practice your combos.

The problem is the shitty camera placement. It needs to be before Sion, not right over him so you have no reaction time.

Riot really needs a practice mode. I would like to be able to practice clearing camps without waiting almost two minutes.
