Can you allow us to spectate more than Ranked games?

In the lobby, all I see are Ranked, Ranked, Ranked, Ranked, and usually a ARAM but I'm going to be honest, I want to sometimes see how others do in Dominion and Twisted Treeline. (Saving two spots for Ranked players, and one for ARAM.)

Anyone else wish they could do this?

Dominion matches actually used to show up there as well. It was understandably frustrating though because there were no labels, and the only way to tell whether it was an SR or Dom match was to check the background of the Featured Spectate box. (Dom had a different arrangement of houses or something, I forget.) Anyway, I don't know if they stopped because Riot changed the algorithm or if there weren't enough high-MMR matches anymore. Unfortunately, as far as I'm aware, Treeline matches have never shown up for whatever reason.

It really would be nice to easily see high-level gameplay for CS/TT. Particularly after the ill-considered changes to match history visibility, it's much harder nowadays to research builds for alternate maps. Having CS/TT show up in the Featured Spectate would help expose the game modes to new players too.

1 riot only cares about summoners rift, and supprisingly they show an aram game, wouldn't surprise me if they took that out.

2 Twisted treeline would be fun to watch

3 dominions full of IP farming bots so, nothing good to watch there.
