Check this idea out!! You will be happy you did!
Hello everyone! I don't know if this idea has been posted before, but I thought it would be a very nice asset to have. I don't normally post in forums, but I thought that this would be something that could be really beneficial to all summoners regardless of skill level.
I think it would be a great option to have a Custom Training mode where you could set your own parameters. I have limited amounts of time to play, but I would really like to improve and get better at the game mechanics.
Flash - It would be cool to have a way that would allow summoners to set flash to an extremely short CD so you could practice flashing over walls. You could pick a map, go in by yourself or with a friend with a preset rule to have flash with a short cd (5 secs or so), on the same team or enemy team, allow damage or no damage, short respawn timers, etc. Maybe champion moves that allow you to go through walls could be added (cait net, nid punce, etc). There could also be a "race" mode where checkpoints are highlighted with walls you have to jump through/over based on the character you are playing. There could be time trials with leaderboards.
Marksman - It would be neat if there could be a way to practice orb walking/kiting as well. For example, you could have a "bot" that moves at a preset pace (25/50/75/100% move speed) and the idea is to see how long you can kite it before it gets to you. You could pick any preset items/build combinations, abilities, movement speeds so it could be like a real game situation. The more parameters the better! Imagine being in specific custom designed maps that suit each purpose of practice (maybe just the lower half of summoners rift between the two turrets). The chase could start at a preset position - let's say purple side turret - and you have to kite back to blue side without being touched/killed/hit a numeber of times/ etc.
Skillshot training - Maybe have a mode/custom map that allows you to spam nid spears, blitz grabs, thresh hooks, ziggs bombs, and it's a mini game to see how many you can land in a time limit.
Jungle fastest clear speed training - try to beat your best time! Find ways to see how fast it takes you and which paths are the best! A simple reset button that allows you to start at a certain spot would be handy for most of these modes.
Jungle Smite Wars - Try to see how many barons you can smite that have different health bars that pop randomly around you in short moments of time.
Escape the gank! - have a game mode with your friends/bots where it is 2v1 and you have to try to out play the enemy by making it to a goal line without dying (maybe top half of summoner's rift with a countdown like a racing game!)
Last hit practice - yea you can just go into a custom game and wait for the minions to spawn blah blah blah... but if there was a way to make a mini game mode out of it... like whack a mole!! Your character could be permanently locked, and all you can due is rotate. There could be 16 "holes" around you where minions can pop up with different health bars. The game could get faster and faster and your autos get faster. Maybe +1 point for killing a minion with a last hit, -2 if you hit one without executing it. It would be cool to play against friends and try to get high scores on a leader board or something.
Now obviously this would need a lot of programming, testing, etc., but I think it would be really beneficial to summoners of all experience levels. I know I would want something like this so I could improve at a faster rate. How cool would it be to see Sneaky vs. Doublelift in a whack-a-minion contest!
Let me know what you guys think! I know it is lengthy, but hopefully you made it all the way through.
P.s. I don't know if anyone from Riot will see this, but if you do... a champion created using my name would be sweet... either that or a job. A job would be nice too xD.
