I Hate Urf

ModRowanstar··10 votes·3,750 views

Im super tilted after multiple games of URF where the enemy team picked super hard to fight champs like YI and Darius. And to my surprise ppl completed their builds in like 10 minutes. Being one shot the whole games isnt fun. IDK how to deal with URF. The concept is fun but i dont get how ppl get so OP so fast.

I don't hate urf, I hate the people who play it.

Why do you hate the people who play it? What have they done to you? Imagine no one played URF with you on either team. You would be playing on the Training tool alone. I love the people who play URF because I get to have fun on the Rift using all the moves super fast and having a blast.

This is riot trolling all the people who wanted non-random URF back, being too new to remember what it was like originally.

They knew it was going to be awful, next time it will be happily random again instead of 5 AD zero-skill clicker champs stacking movespeed.

Yeah bro it's much more fun to have no say in whether or not you get stuck with a bad URF champ against five S tier ones.

ARURF blows.

This way you just get 5 S tier ones vs the same 5 S tier ones every game, in a zero skill oneshot fest based on who has worse communication and warding.

Nobody seems to like it. No effort, no crazy builds or weird synergies, because none of that matters when yi runs down mid with 25 kills by 15 minutes.

This is what URF is. I didn't like it even the first time. It doesn't hold a lot of appeal for me. At least I'm not the only one, lol.

It doesn't have anything to do with the people. People should be able to pick whatever champ they want. It's just a burn out/tilt mode and that's it.

Well, it is a quick game mode. Pretty much done in less than 15 minutes all the time (especially if ap ezreal + malzahar + heimerdinger is involved) and you just have to hope to hit them before they hit you. My advice, do not go in to win, go in to spam as much as you can and have fun spamming. That is what they are doing as well.

their builds in like 10 minutes. Being one shot the whole games isnt fun. IDK how to deal with URF. The concept is fun but i dont get how ppl get so OP so fast.

A lot of the problem is the objectives...i keep trying to tell people urf was not like the first time urf came out. if used to range from short to 40+ min back and fourth games...now 100% are 10-20 min stomps due to the op objectives.

most people seem to underestimate/forget them but gold,exp,stats from elder buff/baron.are huge.

turret plating elder dragon baron and even the cannon

are speeding up the mode way more and causing snowballing. this effect from them is massive. and also is anti-fun.

the dragon being the biggest problem..

each dragon gives a 20% damage swing, plus true burn damage, plus all the other stats. PER dragon is a lot of power to be given free at the 10 min mark of the game. add baron on top of that then its pretty ridiculous.

the objectives are turning 100% the games in to 10 min laning phase followed by a stomp and forced end at 20 or ff after dragon goes down. this is anti fun when the game is so heavily dictated from one objective at the 10 min mark. and this makes the mode a far cry of what urf used to be when they first released it.

when you consider before elder was added to urf there was at least a chance for some of the games to make it past 30 min and to have to have some back and fourth fights on longer games. those were always the more fun games at least for me even if i lost..

the dragon and turrent plate is also warping the picks massively and limiting them a lot. as you need to pick strong laners so you can contest dragon get plates..people would be more willing to pick more weak lane champs/for fun picks. if the mode was a little longer or if they dident have to worry about contesting objectives or getting stomped so hard immediately once the other team gets an elder.

the pick warping from the short forced snowball games due to objectives is causing a lot people to complain...but most people ever acknowledge/realize that the objectives are making the mode way worse.

the sad thing is riot may even use these complaints as a reason to only do arurf from now on or worse not bring it back at all..rather then just remove the the snowballing from the objectives.

in the PBE people were telling riot that elder dragon was a problem and was anti fun and the games were snowballing to hard..so i am not even sure why that was never addressed.

the forced objective interactions over op objective is also encouraging people to more competitive rather then to just have fun.that is not something you want for game mode that are just meant to be fun..

there is also the problem that since the mode is call ultra rapid fire people are under the impression all the game should be super short and decisive. however i believe that the mode would benefit a lot more fun wise if the games were less decisive/snowball and aimed for the 30-40 min range and to be a bit harder to close rather then 10-20min.

this could be done pretty simply by slowing gold maybe exp, removing or just delaying the snow ball objetives, and urfing up the towers(attack hp ect..) till it hits a later point in the game.THEN make the objective matter a bit more. so the game dont stall out after the 30-40 min mark.

but most would probably disagree since people think it need to be fast... even though earlier versions were a lot slower then it is now..

Yo honestly. baron is a meme. If a team goes for baron. Laugh and take dragon. That shit is insane.

lol urf is pretty good if you take the mode seriously. problem I'm seeing is that people go into urf thinking they'll get to play the game at 20 apm, should have played regular league if that's the case.

I liked it when it first happened in 2014, since then it's jus meh. I don't see why people always want it around.

Still play it every now and then when it is here, but I get tilted after a few games so I don't play much. Especially when I see champs like Fizz in there go from 1/2 to 25/4 in a matter of minutes and then they sit there spamming masteries, taunts/laughs like they could actually consistently do that in a normal mode.

It used to be better, but I am still having lots of fun.

URF should've never come back after the first time imo

That was when it was good, when no one knew shit about what was good. But since then, the mode devolves into "pick these champs or you will lose and you will not have fun doing it". Not to mention when it does come around, all I see is bitching about X champ being overpowered or about "tryhards" in URF. But hey, I guess I'm in the minority.

ARURF is superior in the sense that there is some damn variety but is inferior because no one likes losing the game in champion select.

I hate the game mode too. I don't see how people think this is the best game mode when games end in 15 mins and its a 50/50 that 90% of your game will be in spawn.

also people are extremely ballsy in urf because they dont really care about whether they do well or not, they just want to have fun, that is why people can get rediculously fed on urf i mean check my match history on aatrox I had 13 kills at like 5 and a half minutes.

I hate the damn cannon it basically accelerates the game by allowing people to go right back to lane to die again.
