Solution to Odyssey missions: Add a PLAY button on the missions

Like the title, just add a PLAY button on the mission description, and get into queue with the limitations of the mission.

Want to play 5 Yasuo, click the PLAY button on the mission and you cant change out of Yasuo on champion selection.

Want to play 4 augments, click the PLAY button on the mission and the extra slots will be blocked.

this would take a lot of the frustration out of the process lol

Um! this is one of the easiest and simplest solutions I have ever heard. Although I will say making separate queues for this could be interesting.

that involves extra coding which is a big no no for riot

They already had problems imagining sustaining both SoloQ and DynaQ and you want to split non-primary funmode into like at least 10 different Qs? Like it would take frustration away from playing the game, but not from waiting 20 minutes to play the game.

Just so you know, the queue time for ARAM tends to go higher by even 2 minutes when popular funmode is enabled (to be specific, that is my observation when URF comes which is the maximum extreme of popularity, it goes down to circa 1 minute increase scaling down with funmode popularity) and that is migration of playerbase into one other mode. Imagine that but with 9 others.

Map isn't even worth playing, it's not even fun honestly, and onslaught is way to difficult, the only ones who can beat it are organized groups.

what if you want to do multiple missions at once? i finished the all yas mission, the onslaught 4 augs mission and the everyone plays the same champion mission all in one game

yes

Please make this thing! I can't even find people that need 4 augments anymore, let alone the Sona/Ziggs and 2 augments missions... It's been a week now and no one wants to cooperate with each other...

Seems like your idea would work, but they'd have to put those missions as the only way to enter the game mode for consistency. To work with that, they could give us a generic repeating mission that refreshes after every game to play the game mode that grants 1 blue essence as a reward.

Can't beleive rito didn't think about that before making this new mode with tons of new missions. 90% of oddysey's games i've played ended up in teamates flaming each other, or going afk, or trolling, because noone agreed on the mission. Finally, the oddysey mode is really very funny, but can't work how it actually is, especially because you can't leave queue or you get punished of 6 mins of waiting etc. Maybe rito thought people aren't too selfish and can sometimes make sacrifices for their team, they were totally wrong.

this... is pretty good. like, the best solution to the problem holy shit.

Riot games can't do this the code is too complex

This would be an amazing idea if possible. Probably not possible during this event, but good idea for the future.

If not possible, here are some alternative suggestions:

  • Allow us to play RGMs in customs and complete PvE mode missions there.
  • Promote customs as a way to find people for these kind of events on (un)official media and preferably even in-client. (Customs could use some revamp-love overall).
  • Bring back public chat rooms.

Why not just go into the r/LeagueOfLegends discord and find a match in 3 seconds with the odyssey game finder

And then you end up in twisted treeline ranked with all the champions locked except Yasuo because Rito-spaghetti-code No ty. Just make missions require a 5-man group. Also by your logic we can't do multiple missions at once or?
