Riot: Sorry, not enough people played it!

Also Riot: Ok guys, this mode that we mode is def going to be permanent because we can sell chibis so deal with it even though we never had a real playerbase "testing" phase.

Also Riot: "Hey as it turns out this game mode we put some time into is blowing up on twitch, overflowing our client, causing immense queue times. Think this one might be permanent."

FTFY

I know this is M&G but:

Far more people played and play TFT.

Hence the queue issues.

I don't understand why people still try to claim Nexus Blitz was more popular when it is plainly evident that it's not true.

there is a "tested" playerbase/market for it though...

..in china.

which is where the majority of dota autochess playerbase has been playing from since january. And we all know how much riot has been focusing on the chinese markets over their own NA audience (ahem rivenwukong balance)

and honestly, they shouldn't care about the NA boards, it's an extremely small minority. You look at the most popular post on the front page and it usually has less than 20k views. Most don't even get past 5k views. Half the posts you see on the frontpage have less than 20 upvotes. One or two will occasionally surpass 100 votes. and these posts are supposed to be the most popular mind you. as a business, riot only sees numbers and those weak numbers make the boards a minority. welcome to being the 2nd rate minority customer, where requests and pleas like nexus blitz or urf mode are addressed maybe once every few months

Dude why does TFT look like some grotesque offspring of lootbox opening and an idle game?

I thought it was going to be like a tactics game... like... tactics.

This game looks booty lol

AND didnt DOTA2 already make a game just like it? WTF wheres the originality anymore in game development?

A portion of the playerbase (see how I said portion cause I don't pretend to speak for the entire playerbase like a little bi-): OMG NEXUS BLITZ WAS SO FUN BRING IT BACK IT SHOULD BE PERMANENT YOU'VE ALL SINNED FOR TAKING IT AWAY

Me: I mean honestly long term it isn't that great and tbh I didn't real-

Said portion: SHUT UP NEXUS BLITZ IS A PERFECT CHILD

Me: I mean that's just your opin-

Said portion: YOU'RE STUPID AND DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT

Me: Okay

Please. I love that game mode a lot. Quick income, quick build, quick teamfight, easy and simple. Fun.

REBEL TILL NEXUS BLITZ REEE

Blitz wasn't my personal favorite, but it's better than slogging through another decade of ranked.

It would be nice to have a legit arcade mode where every pvp game mode is up permanently, and we had the choice of what we wanted to play. My friends list has been empty since ARURF left, and they aren't coming back until it does.

Just give us URF/Blitz/OFA/Hexakill/Ascension, and stop trying to force LCS Simulator down our throats. There are too many good fucking games out now to be told what to play on League, so unvault the fun shit, and I'll come back.

i give them 3-4 months then noone buys little legends anymore and riot will remove tft saying the same lazy excuse of "not enough ressources sorry".

and since the terms of service allow them to do that, theres nothing that anyone can do against it.

Players: *starts ignoring Nexus Blitz cause no missions/rewards*

Riot: Ok, guess we're not making Nexus Blitz permanent...

I've been of the opinion that they need two rotating game modes that stay unlocked at all times One for the pve modes: Doom bots, Odessy, and star guardians... Changes weekly One for the massive amount of pvp modes: Urf, arurf, OFA, hexakill, blood moon, project, butcher bay, dark star, nexus siege, nexus blitz, nemisis.... Rotating daily (probably with a bias to make blood moon and project up less since those modes were less popular.

Or at least let us make any of these in custom!!

Luxanna Ahegao6/30/2019, 8:20:11 PM4 votes

we don't , one for all is way more enjoyable

so is arurf, the point of rotating modes is that they rotate! they don't stay permanent for any reason!

i consider season 9 a shitty season bc riot broke one of its customs, we used to enjoy at least two rotating modes that are SR related per year

this season we only got 1 then tft is permanent so too bad

NB is all around an amazing mode, wish to see it come back again

Who Fed Ru6/30/2019, 8:02:23 PM4 votes

Idk what kind of argument this is supposed to be.

They also said that Nexus Blitz would be permanent first but not enough people played it, so they took it off again.

TFT would get the same treatment if no one cares about it anymore in 2 months, but it doesn't look like it as it's very popular rn.

I do miss Nexus blitz. The Randomness of it was so refreshing! I especially loved the scuttle races lol! Was my favorite event! I'd love to see it back.

It s quite sad that they keep Twisted Treeline which is soooo DEAD as a perma mode and they don t bring back NB when queue times were like few seconds. GG RITO, giving us bulllshit excuses as usually. You decide to keep Twisted Treeline which is a fking dead mode also ARAM which isn t that great at all over NB which was very popular and played compared with these 2.
