If you were given creative power over league for 1 day, how would you make this game more fun?

Delete all CertainlyT champs.

Let's see how many ideas we can get that aren't just "delete these champions and items".

Buff Riven and Vayne, and make Vayne able to jungle.

We believe this will fuck over everyone make League a more fun experience for players!

Make a 6v6 All for One URF gamemode.

Sandbox. 'Nuff said.

YES THIS IS A LAUNDRY LIST but that's how and what League should be improved IMO.

• Set REAL deadlines so people are encouraged to get stuff done, but make sure to allow SOME flexibility so shit doesn't go wrong.
• Start the Sandbox mode idea
• Rework client so it's not shit from the 90s
• Enable URF and other featured game modes in customs ONLY
• Rework lore and bring back the IoW and JoJ. Of course, we all know the Institute isn't the good guys, so this would cause more interesting drama.
• Bandle City event and love for yordles WHERE
• More "chapter twos" and progressive content
• More trivial tidbits
• Explanation behind some of the most "random" relationships. I mean... Sona and Taric, why are they "friends"?
• Delete utility scalings, rework non-tank support itemization and damage ratios
• Nerf tank supports' base damage, why are they dealing more damage than poke supports?
• Spellthief buffs and/or coin nerfs
• Allow enemies to click Thresh's lantern to either travel to his place, or remove it completely like how GP barrels are gone.
• Gut Lulu solo lane and buff support. Yes you heard that right. This is Cancerous Lulu speaking goddammit.
• Reduced Q damage on minions
• Give back +AP bonus upon W ally cast
• Either reduce self-healing on ult self-cast, or might as well don't let her self-cast ult AT ALL
• Make ult an actual heal so it can be affected by grievous wounds AND ardent censer
• If people are SERIOUSLY this butthurt about gutting Lulu solo lane, then buff other supports so they can go to a solo lane too, such as Taric, Alistar, and Leona. Gotta be fair, you know?
• Fix the following champs, gameplay-wise:
• Quinn (not sure which one is buggier, Windows 10 or Quinn)
• MF
• Twitch
• Taric
• Bring back old Karma.
• Following nerfs:
• Jinx: Instead of dealing 110% of base AA on rockets, it is now 75%. Or remove crits on rockets.
• Vayne: No more % max hp true damage, but is now flat true damage.
• Kalista, LB, Fizz: delete pls
• Allow Tenacity to affect knockups.
• Improve new player experience:
• Cheaper runes
• Increased IP gains before reaching level 30
• For under level 30 players ONLY: allow "free trial" champs
• Lower amount of XP to reach level 30
• Allow IP to RP conversion rates
• This is ONLY for players that have acquired at least 10 rune pages, a certain amount of runes, and ALL the champions that are 6300IP or lower
• Conversion rate: 10000 IP = 100 RP. Sorry, gotta make it low to make shit fair. Yes they can be gifted, but are for skins/cosmetics ONLY (no rune pages or champs)
• Improve ranked experience
• Enable loss prevented when there's a 4v5, or some kind of trolling involved. Based on voting system of ALL the players on the map. You can start it like as if it's a surrender, but if most of the players in the game agrees then the game would end with a "loss prevented", with the team that started the vote not gaining LP (since it's basically surrender). Hey, if you think this is too harsh, just remember that sometimes enemy teams don't report trolls.
• Bring back ELO system, delete promos
• Everyone gets a free dodge every 24 hours. Then it's -3, -10, etc. afterwards. The "free" dodge also works on promos. "But people can abuse it!" What about people abusing the system by trolling in champ select and THEN getting away?
• Less resources on esports, more on technical stuff. Yes I know it's different departments but 90% of "news" doesn't have to be esports related.

Monthly Featured Game Mode.

The first and most important order of business would be to make things right that Riot got wrong or failed to do in the first place.

• Immediately fire whoever was responsible for the utter destruction of Katarinas base splash.

• Immediately restore the good Katarina base splash back to its rightful place.

• Order the skin team to immediately begin work on "Pool Party Katarina".

• Hot fix these changes back into the game.

Now that the important stuff is out of the way I would :

• Create a 3v3 Ranked Solo Queue, complete with end of season rewards that differ from the ones on summoners rift. There would be a pick ban phase similar to what we find in SR ranked games.

• Create a Dominion Ranked Solo Queue, complete with end of season rewards that differ from the ones on summoners rift. There would be a pick ban phase similar to what we find in SR ranked games.

• Create a Howling Abyss Ranked Queue, complete with end of season rewards that differ from the ones on summoners rift. There would be a pick ban phase similar to what we find in SR ranked games.

All of these modes would have some type of banner that differed from but was able to be displayed with the the summoners rift banner.

• Increase the rate at which one earns influence points.

• Increase the rate at which one levels to 30.

• Require 50 normal wins in a game mode before one could queue ranked in that mode.

• Bring back the Tribunal complete with real human beings as judges.

• Perma ban feeders and trolls while undoing the perma bans of toxic people. Toxic people that would normally be eligible for perma ban would be placed on perma chat restriction.

• Focus more balance decisions on the masses while not ignoring pro play.

• Remove all point and click crowd control, replacing those skills with skill shots.

• Allow tenacity to shorten the duration of knock ups.

• Remove Crowd Control from the Marksman role.

• Create items that would allow all champions to thrive in the Jungle.

• Change the name of these boards back to forums.

• Once again General Discussion would be the landing spot for the official boards and Riot employees would be responsible for the moderation of the forums.

Since it is nearing lunch and we have all of these issues resolved, I would allow my employees to take the rest of the day off in appreciation of there hard half a days work.

I'd give Graves his damn cigar back

• reintroduce long stealths

• try to find solution for new critting mechanic (and implementing it)

• Introduce voting system in client where everyone who plays receives a window with changes and poll. Where they could shape the game they want. With each division having different weight (so 1 diamond = 20 bronze or so~~)

• Try my very best to balance champions to be viable both as AP and AD (Caitlyn AP? Np. Trist? Sure)

• Also buff champions that are below average who just scream for help

• Give all champions viable for ARAM

• New client (that one isn't so bad, but still isn't good either)

But lets be honest.. For those changes to happen I'd need at least a month and group of smart programmers. Otherwise it'll be just bunch of empty words..

Bring back AP

1. Replace the Blind Draft Dominion queue with URF Dominion.

2. You gain points rather than losing points. At 500 points a giant laser from your Nexus blows the enemy Nexus to bits.

3. Place a capture point at Market in the form of a scary crystal monster. Killing the monster gives your team a point in the middle of the map that can't be capped until it respawns. When captured it freezes all other capture points for 15-25 seconds to prevent aces from snowballing into a 5-cap.

4. Add capture relics sitting atop the Speed Shrines ala Ascension and remove the points for kills and captures. The shrines should help encourage players to control the jungle rather than running around in the open. Because standing out in the open is like standing on a Ward in Rift.

There.

Now Dominion should be way more enjoyable for everyone.

Restore dominion to what it should have been, bring back doom bots, let urf doom bots be a thing. Balance fiora, garen, and darius. And bring back assassin meta :3 just cause i like to play akali kata and diana. :O and maybe bring back some old items that should have been returned after and during the tank meta

First (change zero): DELETE the Mordekaiser rework and put him back where he belongs, i feel too much for his mains.

First of all, i would work on reverting some old 'meta nerfs' - for example, the nerfs at Sion and Sejuani when Cinderhulk was stronger - trying to find a middle ground between the live champ and the one before the series of nerfs, trying to put again some champs in the spotlight without working on something new.

Next, enforce a ranked queue for Dominion - maybe not ARAM, too random -, trying to encourage the other maps of the game a little more. Lots of people say that this game is around SR, and it's true, and this need to change for the sake of giving the game new blood.

Shut down gameplay & balance for a month, then reopen it again, as a developer it would give me too much of an headache.

Then, work to improve the new player experience, with some easy to get champs between 3.1k and 4.8k (not the 6.3k for obvious reasons)

Well, after having watched this game since it's start, I sorta understand how Riot balances and realize how what they do is actually ingenius for the game. Keeping it fresh and changing for classes, matchups, and stuff for a game with one primary format.

League isn't MEANT to be balanced. It's meant to constantly seesaw, with the players trying to figure out and master repeatedly the strongest way to play at the time. Some play towards the middle of the seesaw, seeing only minor buffs or nerfs, champions being consistently playable but rarely dominant. Orianna is probably the best example, rarely fought over, but never disregarded. Others see the high's and low's, but have to be constantly learning and relearning champions and strategies.

My goal for a single solitary day in charge of League of Legends would be about the infrastructure when you're not on the rift, since balance will always change.

Currently we have two draft que's for Summoner's Rift, and one blind que. There is no reason to have two.

Normal Draft Que removed. Just be patient and don't go crazy.

Ranked Solo/Duo no longer has divisions/brackets -- MMR is shown. Just called "Draft" Mode. Can no longer bring groups larger than "2".

Ranked Team Builder introduced. Que for a lane with 3 "example" heroes (possibly the three highest mastery champions? eh? eh?). Form a team before similar to current Team Builder before going into a Draft where you then ban and pick champions.

Ranked Team Builder pulls into the same que once que'ed as regular 5v5 Teams. Team name and Tag is typed in by the captain before forming a group.

MMR average for the team from other Draft SR games is used for matchmaking.

After a game, it returns all five members to the Ranked Team Builder window, a "make permanent" button is placed for every member, if everyone pushes it, the team is officially made and can now ladder for full rewards. If someone leaves, you can look for a replacement and replay the Team Trial match.

Winning matches in Ranked Team Builder mode contributes towards getting the End of Season ward reward, and the Skin is only for teams placing Gold or higher.

Most of the issues with the game come from que'ing randomly into games and not knowing who or what your allies can do and having to deal with people you just don't like. Team Builder in general is the least toxic environment League has been able to put out, adapting that even mildly and pushing full teams together before que'ing so they can possibly socialize beforehand instead of finding out at minute 12 that the ADC is actually russian and can't understand what their support has been typing to them the whole game.

I'd do more... but this would likely take up MORE than one day worth of work.

Revert the Sona, Casiopeia and Mordekaiser reworks.

Make a targeted summoner spell that disables all mobility spells for 2.5 sec.

Delete . That is all.

Whoa boy I would make a massivse list of balance changes, and Mostly statistical ones (aka high winrate high pickrate > Nerf , Low Pickrate + Low winrate > Buff) For basically every champion. Then I would have a field day with low counterplay champions or just generally not fun to play against champions. [Rengar, Riven, Irelia, Annie, Malzahar, Viegar ulti, Yasuo Windwalls, Eve permastealth all come to mind ] then lastly percent health true damage would be straight removed and champions with it in their kits compensated.

I'd try to make sure every champ had some really cool (and possibly insane) synergetic item builds. Stuff you'd have to commit to to get that super op feeling. (none of that 1 item op garbage)

Allow for vertical axis physics and a sandbox mode where I can place any champion I want in any part of the map, as many champions as I want and any scenario I want to recreate be allowable in an offline mode. Then petition for these changes to continue existing after that one day.

Enable friendly fire, bring Face of the Mountain back to release state, turret targeting is instant.

Rework Dominion and add a new map with completely different objectives.

Here's my bucket list:

1. Sandbox mode.
2. Tone down % HP true damage.
3. Kind of impractical, but making interactions between champions more... interactive. For example: : Challenge me, Shen! You shall not be an orphan long! : The shadows do not make good guardians, Zed. : We shall see, Shen!

Lower the scalings on certain champions. Maybe give Kassadin a silence on his W (though with the damage and mana gain it'd be over loaded. Maybe make it proc silence for a few seconds after he uses his ult.) and try to see if I can get the butcher bay map as on option in ARAM.

I WOULD RELEASE URF MODE FRIDAYS!

I WOULD GIVE SUPPORTS A BETTER ITEMIZATION, AND BRING INCENTIVES TO PLAY SUPPORT!

I WOULD GIVE BARD BUFFS ON HIS W AND E1

I WOULD MAKE NUMBERS TWEAKS TO TAHM KENCH!

i WOULD GIVE THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT!

cough buff orianna to hyper crazy extremes and ship her with viktor and release a skin line to make them match cough

Delete Kalista

Nerf Jinx

Nerf Vayne

Revert Lux's buffs

Nerf Ahri

Revert Mordekaiser's rework

Basically the only 2 things I would do is nerf Darius. Either change his heal to a flat amount and not a %, or maybe take a bigger step and remove the heal and see how it works and if it is bad, then do the flat amount part, his weakness was being poked down which doesn't exist too much when he can Q every few seconds to get chunks of hp back at a time. In this same note I would probably buff Garen a bit. For all the QQ people do about Garen, they just never played against him and it shows. He was overall nerfed for his novelty Villian Passive and I would give him back some of his tankiness. Kinda weird he is this psudo tanky assassin now vs before when he was this unbreakable wall that could kill someone if they overstayed.

And I would also buff all ADCs. I hate Vanye as much as the next guy, but her issue isn't herself. Its that all other ADCs were nerfed into the ground while she stayed mostly stable, so of course she will be picked a lot when she is the most successful. Give all the other ADCS back some of their power they lost in past nerfs and we will see new things in bot than most games being Vayne and Tristana as it is now. Also on a side note, not sure how to go about it but do something about Blitzcrank. He I feel is the most cancerous support in the game, since while Thresh and Leona actually take some skill to pull off, all Blitz has to do is throw hooks and eventually he will land one no matter how bad he is, and its too unforgiven seeing as 1 grab is usually a kill and it doesn't really penalize him if he misses. My guess would make the grab be a very massively long cd, or make it have a way lower range.

Other than that, the game is in a fairly good state I feel.

I wouldn't delete any champ.

I would make it so the temporary game modes STAYED until a new one comes out.

1 day isn't much time for big changes...i gues i'd remove flash and see where it goes
