Riot, you said you were adding Urf into the Rotating game mode, it's been about 2 months since we last had urf, but I've seen every other game mode here, and even new ones, Why did you remove urf, Is it coming back anytime soon?

They said when RGM started that URF would only come twice this year. It did.

Additionally, they also stated fairly recently that they had pulled some RGMs off rotation in order to work on them to prevent stagnation, something which has happened quite severely to URF.

You better go back to that topic and look again, it clearly says "AT LEAST TWICE THIS YEAR", so that being said they still should be letting us play urf, unless they have some problems with the script, that's what that "at least" may signify.

But see my comment again. URF is a stale game mode. It's developed a meta and people have abused the OP champs each time it comes out, to the point where you see the same teams and the oppressiveness of those champs just sucks the fun out of the mode for those who want to just enjoy it. That's why it was pulled, so they can work on it to implement some way to keep it fresh and reduce champ abuse. This could be as simple as changing the pick process or as complicated as adding more event specific nerfs.
