Multiplayer Training

I'd like to see a same-team-only multiplayer option for training mode. I'd like to be able to show my newbie friends how to play the game in a controlled environment. Is this something we'll ever see?

I haven't done much with the sandbox mode yet, but what are you looking for that isn't handled between that and CoOp vs AI modes?

I'd like to be able to insta-6 and practice on training dummies, especially combo moves like a gragas barrel into a yasuo ulti or something. It'd be nice to have zero cooldowns and infinite mana for something like that.

also, when teaching new people how to CS it'd be nice to just reset the game without having to leave and re-make.

This NEEDS to happen. League of Legends is a hard game to get into if you're pretty new to MOBAs. It'd be amazing to have another person on the practice tool with you. Not only can both of you hone your skills, but you can just fool around with dumb builds like A.S Kha'zix vs. AP Shyvanna.

I appreciate your feedback. Please upvote.

Also, I'm not sure I'd intend it for "playing" like that, because I think the fear from riot is that people will treat it as its own game mode, which is why I specified "Same Team Only."

I think the current single player implementation is specifically because Riot doesn't want "Practice Tool" to become its own PVP game mode, since that was never the intention for it. Thus, I think that anything PVP related should be kept to custom games and summoners rift/treeline. I think Practice Tool should be meant specifically for in-game interactions that have long cooldowns and take time to scale up to, such as combining your ultimates in an advantageous way that requires some sort of timing.

That said, I think "Same team only" would be the best implementation.
