How to fix URF

Moineaux·Sep 24, 2016·2 votes·722 views

This is in no way a complaint against ARURF. I think all random modes are hilarious and fun. Stop whining and give real input, people.

Idea:

Have regular draft URF with no bans.

Top 10-14 performing champs are locked out of everyone's game. Keep the winrate stats quite public so we know who is locked and when. Maybe put that info into a snazzy box on the side when URF game mode is selected.

This causes players to pick less popular champs. Have a 2hr cool down on champs going in/out of the permalock status

(I.e if Lux is no.1 and goes down to no.11, there is a 2 hour grace period before she can get locked again. So champs don't fly back into getting banned as soon as they're unbanned.)

Provide incentives for playing low ranking champs (random skin enabled for games with bottom 20% of champs, bonus IP for bottom 10%.

Might be worth a try one time. And sure people will complain but they always complain. And this actually might be balanced.

Thoughts?

That just creates a cycle of the top 10 being locked then the next top 10 being locked and it repeats. That doesnt solve anything it just test how long you are willing to wait.

I disagree. If you make the locked pool big enough (14-16) you'll be blocking the really OP champs played every single game champs, which seems to be their main concern.

It's not that you saw Ekko 'often'. It's that you saw him every freaking game. this gives each champion a rotating ban. There is just no way you can ban the top 14 champs which will dominate with just 3 bans per side.

The other thing is the very important clause in the middle by which a champ would only be unbanned for 2 hours if it was a super OP and popular pick. Reread it with fresh eyes I think you'll like my idea.

I'm not complaining by the way. I think all random was a good thing to try.

Is this thread dead or would someone else like to give their input maybe?
