Riot, please make all modes available.

Here's why I'm writing this: Regular Normal Blind/Draft pick and Ranked are dull. The builds feel all the same for characters, nothing is fun anymore, and the reason why because it all feels the same. I'm just sick of it, I put money into this game and the game has hardly changed recently. What I mean is, every role picks from a select number of item builds, and unless you put tons of money into the game, its a constant grind. The community still isn't the best, and being stuck with low ranking opponents and teammates is annoying at best. The occasional good play and teamwork feels like a breath of fresh air, but are far and few in between. Although champs feel different, the objective and end goal is always the same.

Its like a single track with 20 remixes on loop.

Its not fun with friends, its not fun alone, and all it does is cause stress and frustration when the game is never in your favor. And even when it is, you always snowball the enemy and it doesn't become a challenge, removing the fun.

My theoretical remedy for this is 3 things.

  1. RIOT, you have a plethora of entertaining game modes available, they're a fun and interesting take on the classic game mode. So why are you keeping them out of reach? Why are they only available every weekend and alternating? You could remove every reward and payment from them so long as they were available, and people would still play them and love them. League of Legends could be a much more diverse game and with so much more content available. At the very least, make them available in CUSTOM GAMES. Custom games should be for fun and making friends or just enjoying your time there! Not, "battle easy to defeat bots, and maybe invite some friends."

  2. More Items. Please. There should be more items with more strengths and weaknesses, there should be a multitude of different item builds for each class, not general remedies for certain teams. And note, I don't mean remove any items. Release BALANCED items and let the players decide what to do with them.

  3. We need more maps. Available all the time. Not on occasion. It feels so dull to play on Summoner's Rift now, ARAM is just pointless fun, and Crystal Scar is old and rotten. It needs a serious update. We don't want maps for certain modes, we want maps that we can play for the same mode, but feel DIFFERENT. Maybe more than one lane, maybe an open battlefield with boulders or trees for cover and pinning enemies. What about a maze? There's so much more that can be done for the game, but it feels Riot is just kicking a dead horse. This MOBA copy and paste arena is old and dull.

So those are my three theoretical remedies for my growing frustration with league of legends. I'm probably just bad and I'm just complaining about stuff that is honestly just a personal preference. But, I feel like there's more that can be done for league of legends. I feel like one thing that's causing toxicity is players being stuck at skills levels. There should be a bigger melting pool of skills levels so bad players can learn and low rank but high skill players can rise quicker instead of being stuck at low skill level. Also, players should be judged based on their individual skills and scores, not because of one person dragging the whole team down or dc's.

Anyway, I just thought I put my two cents out here. I won't care if people judge me, but if you think you have a better idea, please comment. However, please note, just as I can be judged, so can you, so if you don't feel comfortable about people judging your ideas, please don't comment and get upset when people who might not know you insult your ideas or criticize them. Just the same, I ask that everyone be polite and try to be as constructive as possible when analyzing ideas. Thank you for reading. :)

I love the game modes like urf and hexakill, but they are almost never there. so I think of quiting league of legends now. But if they bring them all the time I finally can just have fun and not playing that rift map all the time.summoner 3
