Is the new gamemode an april fools joke?

The new gamemode on youtube where you select a champ and pick certain abilities for their abilities? kinda like a mix up? Like blitz q is jinx ult n shit? If thats an april fools joke then we need to start rebelling because that idea looked so amazing and i would literally skip school to play that shit.

Might be fun but wait until you see the karthus q as karthus ults and the gamemode suddenly gets a lot less fun. It would require an insane amount of tweaking for there not to form a meta in 1 or 2 hours.

I'm very sure the ability is COMPLETELY replaced. If Blitz's Q becomes a Fizz's Q, then Blitz's Q will function normally like what Fizz's Q would be, in terms of damage & cooldown.

Also, I'm also quite sure that each champion can only get one ultimate that is keyed to their R button.

Exactly, and they could limit others' abilities as well. Like, certain champions can have only some other champions' abilities and not just mixing them all. It could be fun but I think it would require a lot of work and balance from Riot, I don't see it becoming reality any soon. Unfortunately.

Now if you look closely in the teaser you can see blitz q particles behind the jinx rocket, this means two things: first blitz has an ult on his q effectively having two ultimate abilities, secondly that their original ability still remains, albeit it is heavily obscured in case of skill shots.

As far as I know there was only released a single video an april the first regarding this so unless you have some reliable info then your "very sure" is from bad sources or from assuming things based on incomplete data which we should have learned not to do after the "no mans space failure".

It's not like you're expecting Blitzcrank to be pulling out Jinx's gun, that will just take up a fuck-ton of time to create such a game mode. So yes, they had to re-use their original animation to make life easier. And no, that Blitz's Q thing is just pure animation, nothing gameplay-ish at all.

My question in this case would have been why has blitz ult not been replaced by jinx ult? It still seems to me that he has two ultimates.

that will just take up a fuck-ton of time to create such a game mode.

Even your version will take time as the meta would settle very quickly and make the mode boring.

So yes, they had to re-use their original animation to make life easier.

Surely they could have just cut the original animation. This should not have taken long.

And no, that Blitz's Q thing is just pure animation, nothing gameplay-ish at all.

Again where are you getting this info from? If it the one april fools video then there is no reason to assume this. I might as well say that in this game mode karthus ult always kills everyone.
