Can we remove Odyssey and bring back Nexus Blitz?
I don't know if this is an unpopular opinion, but I can't stand Odyssey and already miss Blitz. I've been playing LoL for around 5 years and a lot of the magic I felt has completely dwindled away. I would only really play if a friend insisted on it. However, Nexus Blitz felt so fresh when it came out. The fast game times, constant teambattles and Wario Ware-esque minigames felt strange at first, but quickly became familiar. Every game was energetic and fun. Even games where we lost really hard didn't feel like tiresome slogs because the games ended so quickly. The addition of extra items and features gave the mode a unique play style and meta.
Then Odyssey came out... Riot, what were you thinking? The entire gamemode feels like League of Legends trying desperately hard to become something its not. Odyssey is incredibly slow and boring. Its just: Go to enemy, kill enemy, collect drops, kill Kayn, new level is a bit harder and longer, repeat. That coupled with the unoriginal art style and terrible voice acting makes it completely unbearable. The entire time I was only thinking about finishing it sooner so I could go play a regular Summoner's Rift game, which I don't even enjoy that much anymore.
Don't get me wrong, Nexus Blitz still needed some work, but it was surprisingly well made for how new it was. It added a fresh new way to play LoL and it was something this game desperately needed. Odyssey makes me think that Riot doesn't even know why their game became popular in the first place. Please stop trying to appeal to the MMO crowd and give us back the best thing Riot has done in a long time.
