Dragon Rift Herald Interactions

Okay here me out....

How about we change the locations of Dragons and RH's in the early stages of the game.

When Dragon (or RH for that matter) is killed it leave a pseudo corps. At which time the RH (or dragon) can burrow (or fly) and pop up in the pit that dragon is in (or vice versa). This would then push the next dragon to spawn in the top portion of the map vs always the bottom. The same interaction could then occur again for the second RH before Baron spawns. If players do not the the dragon would relocate as Baron spawns to its standard pit.

  1. It would create unique games by forcing player adjustments.
  2. It would require adaptive jungling to account for shifts.
  3. It would also create changes for objective control.
  4. It would create a focus on more than one side of the map as it is currently towards bottom.

Simplest thing to do is just have Herald/Drag spawn randomly between the two locations. So jungs dont necessarily spend all their time around bot lane.

Not that a team couldn't just lane swap with top.

Lane swapping and adaptive jungling both sound awesome and I would quite enjoy that. Since it would be such a big change, however, I would expect something like that to come at the end of a season. Now that we're in preseason, it's probably a little late to be mixing up the jungle... especially now, with dragons being sensitive to change.
