HALLOWEEN GAME MODE FOR NEXT YEAR

I introduce to you, BLACKOUT URF! (Might change to All For One for balancing.)

No wards Minimap blackened to only show your teams icons wards replaced by a lantern that gives you vision in the radius shown by the screenshot

the lantern stays with you so it is really more of a placeholder. could be replaced by something else. all jungle camps replaced by zombies and ghosts OR the old wraiths (for a bit of nostalgia) since the baron and drakes are afraid of the dark they will have a lantern with them at all times (this is the only vision on the map)

I am still thinking some other ideas for this game mode so i might be updating this. but i think you all get the general idea!

That's pretty wrong. It says Baron and Dragon have the lantern all the time. In my elo they are not as fraid of darkness as in this gamemode. In fact they embrace it passionatly.

Hmm maybe we can get some of Kalista ghost thingies kinda like how we have in blood moon to give vision? So like you would have to move around jungle camps to not be spotted?

insert funny "my map awareness" meme

but this actually might be good to make certain Satan-Tier Toxic poke lanes in urf less terrible (xerath, nidalee, etc)

How about the idea that there are lanterns placed strategically throughout the map and to use the lantern for vision, your team has to add fuel to it. The lantern remains under the control of your team until the fuel runs out. I'm thinking something similar to skarner's pillars for the timing to fill. Maybe each fueling lasts for one minute.

I love this as an idea, but I for one mainly play these game modes with friends, and queuing as 5 would probably take away from the fun and balance of the mode. Also, certain champions like Xerath and Jhin would probably be crippled in this mode, although certain champions in urf are also like this.

no minions nor turrets, leveling up overtime, first team to get certain amount of kills wins (50-60) etc. this would actually be a fun mode.

Blackout URF? Don't you mean URF with a Nocturne in it period? XD

Z3SleeperNov 1, 20182 votes

Funny how this would actually be the worst mode for Nocturne. His ult not only doesn't nearsight since they're already nearsighted, but he can't even ult anyone cuz he has no vision.

I think the better evolution of this would be to not only have everyone lack map vision, but to have some super strong "slenderman" monster roaming in the jungle and river, killing unsuspecting players.

I was thinking of something along those lines as well! Problem with that though is it would be kind of the equivalent of an AI Jungler and thats really hard to script.

BTW this is my alt account. Gank4Doubles is board banned until tomorrow for naming and shaming. Forgot to blur out the name on a screenshot.

And every so often, killed Scuttle will cause' Fiddles ult to spawn, so you have to be extremely careful when you kill scuttle! And at base, the turrets attack speed is increased to be the same speed as the Twisted Treeline Nexus Turret! And bushes will catch fire if you stand in them for more than 10 seconds! My ideas!
