idea regarding season maps. I would like a rioter to give his opinion on this or other players

(not sure if this is in the right place to post this, there was no idea category)

I just saw a video about the new winter map, which made me think it be cool if summoner rift was split into the four seasons, with each season being different and suit different play styles I hope something like this would be implemented like in 2 years or so for example

**SPRING: ** plants spawn after 30/40 mins, plants are very strong and have to be played around, blast cone and honeyfruit don't spawn but there are two new plants that players should be weary of **PRO: ** much like live apart from plants can end games if players don't respect them CONS: plants are over powered
THOUGHTS: (it's a late game map but the map doesn't help you get there)

**SUMMER: ** tower fortification lasts for 40 minutes and scales up with time towers are also worth more gold, they attack 50% faster and lock on faster, baron takes longer to kill rift scuttler doesn't spawn (because river has dried up) and there is more bush. Plants spawn at the start of game and they spawn quite often scryer's bloom doesn't spawn but there is a new plant that helps protect junglers, plants only last until the 15/10 minute mark then they disappear. PROS: good for junglers that are prone to being invaded/Junglers that want level 6 before they gank and counter junglers because of safety CONS: bad for junglers that want to kill the other jungler (nid, lee and shaco etc) THOUGHTS: helps junglers get though the early game (a late game map that helps you stall)

AUTUMN: plants don't spawn in this map after 5 minutes all jungle monsters including epic monsters only give 30% exp and gold and instead 4 leaves will spawn in 4 random bushes on the map that will grant a large amount of exp and gold when stepped on (can only be stepped on by a champion with smite) that champ can't step on another leaf for 10 seconds, after stepping on a leaf that champ with be reveled on the map for 1 seconds after a 30 second delay (this delay has no icon telling you when it will happen you have to keep track of it yourself) from the time that the leaf was stepped on, stepping on another leaf doesn't refresh the the cooldown of the previous one nor does it add another 30 second delay, when a leaf is stepped on it will leave a dead leaf that will look like a fresh leaf to the other team, when a dead leaf is stepped on it is destroyed but doesn't give gold or exp but instead reveals them on the map for 10 seconds after all the fresh leaves have been stepped on all dead leaves disappear and then the same number of leaves as the last round +2 spawn in random bush PROS: If your into strategy and mind game you will love this. it also makes junglers move around the map and keep them active if they are not giving blue over or taking objectives or ganking it's forcing them to ward and control the other jungler CONS: it's a little rng THOUGHTS: I think this one adds a bit of depth to the jungle and isn't just a random game that doesn't feel worth it also if the other jungle doesn't bother with it and doesn't get kills he will fall behind you

**WINTER: ** plants don't spawn in this map some jungle camps don't spawn either and they take 20% more damage, structures also take 20% more damage from all sources and doesn't have fortification they also attack slower and take longer to lock on rift scuttler doesn't spawn (too cold for him) standing or walking in river applies a cold feet which does 1/2/3/4/5 damage each second (that could be too weak or too strong) and applies a debuff that reduces all healing by 50% for as long as you are in river also there is no bush PROS: good for early game champions and champs that don't need much resources CONS: bad for farm junglers or level 6 depended junglers and late game champions (they most likely won't get there) THOUGHTS: (a early game map that is really snowbally) because of this map they would have to change the mountain dragon buff because it would be broken on winter so how about you get 8%/16%/24% +50% if they have mark of the elder dragon increased armor and magic resist so it's good for your tanks and bruisers not sure why a defensive dragon gives tower damage but anyway

FINAL THOUGHTS I think having four types of summoners rift will force players to learn/play around all four seasons which could keep the jungle fresh and riot won't have to change it every season. The season will be randomly picked between the four seasons but you will get told what the season is going to be in champion select.
