Rotating game mode queue now live!

Riot··6 votes·36,465 views

From the sand-strewn battlefield of Ascension to the frenetic manatee magic of Ultra Rapid Fire, rotating game modes provide unique spins on the classic League formula. It’s time to kick things off with the next game mode in the rotation: One for All is now live!

For a refresher on the mode, let’s go over the basics:

Once you get into champ select, you and your team will vote for the champion you’ll all play before jumping into the game for inevitable chaos. Whether you’re chaining an endless string of Gangplank barrels, assembling a Tahm Kench matryoshka, or covering the map with Illaoi tentacles lashing every choke point, One For All is basically five times crazier than when you’re the only one playing your champion. Or at the very least, there’s five times the lasers.

As in any rotating queue game mode, we’ve specially tuned Champion Mastery so you can earn points in the mode. You’ll also be able to earn keys for your wins and loot chests for your (or your premade’s) S­-, S, and S+ games.

One for All is now available and lasts through the evening on Monday (we’ll shut it down very early Tuesday morning--usually between 1:00 AM and 3:00 AM).

We’ll be trying out different things with the rotating game mode queue over the next few months such as, changing the mode cadence or what modes are available. We’re looking for your feedback as we go, so let us know. GLHF!

Brace yourself, the URF comments are coming.

Some good, some bad; all pertaining to URF.

Rito, save us all.

Speaking of which, when was the last time they had URF up? Has it been 1 or 2 months? They're probably making some big changes to URF, which is good because screw the URF meta. That's the only reason I can think of for them not bringing URF back.

Totally agree about the assholes who only pick meta characters in urf but i'd still like to have urf so i can still play the chacters i haven't played yet

update to a post i put back on page 13,

Rotating game mode started 4/8/2016... since then it has been 4/8 - Ascension 4/15 Poro King 4/22 Urf 4/29 Hexakill -Twisted Treeline 5/6 One For All 5/13 Ascension 5/20 Urf 5/27 Definitely Not Dominion 6/3 Poro King 6/10 Hexakill - Twisted Treeline 6/17 One For All 6/24 Ascension 7/1 Hexakill - Twisted Treeline 7/8 Definitely Not Dominion 7/15 Nexus Siege 7/22 Nexus Siege 7/29 Poro King 8/5 One For All 8/12 Ascension 8/19 Nemesis 8/26 Hexakill - Twisted Treeline

Final Tally...

Ascension = 4 Poro King = 3 Urf = 2 HexakillTT= 4 OneForAll = 3 Dominion = 2 NexusSiege= 2 Nemesis = 1

Doombots = 0 BMB = 0 Mirrormode= 0

where's the balance rito?

Ok so what Riot should obviously do here is not put Ascension, Poro King, Hexakill, and One For All in September's rotation I know there's a coding issue with Doombots so I can over look that. But lets try to even the rest of this up

9/2-9/5 Black Market Brawlers 9/9-9/12 Definitely Not Dominion 9/16-9/19 Ultra Rapid Fire 9/23-9/26 Nemesis Draft

I didn't include Mirrormode because I actually don't know what it is.

I like Ascension too man, but I'd like the RGM to be a little bit more even.

When rito is asked about urf:

We want diversity but still put Hexakill in every 4 rotations :D

I think the issue with URF revolves around the LCS. I don't think they want URF up while the LCS is running to encourage people to watch it. Too many people would skip watching the games to play :)

Thunderspam13 votes

To be honest I dont think too many people watch the LCS, for C9 vs Echo Fox less than 50k people were watching it at any time. Not to mention we would all rather play URF than watch C9 and TSM beat everyone.

Last time I was this early URF was still in RGM summoner 3

kind of unfortunate that summer break is almost over, and we didnt get to play urf that much :P. would have been nice to have a weekend where I could spam urf without any work or interruptions.

URF...

nightshock9 votes

Wow, hexkill again. So now riot is just saying to hell with anything the fans say? Can anyone link the numbers of how popular hexkill is? It has to be the highest played mode to make it in the rotation the most right..................

They probably won't because one extra person per team isn't that noticeable/impactful on that map, they said as much sometime between the first hexakill and the end of the first time on TT. On the otherhand, hexakill TT is double the members...so could we get Decakill on Summoners Rift? lol

plus it was bad on SR

TheLastShadow458 votes

So I take it we wont see Urf anymore? Is Riot truly listening to there community? Cause if they were they will see more people want URF than Hexakill.

Hencho1018 votes

to EVERYONE who is wanting URF to come back, Riot said that URF will be coming back at least 2 times in the RGM and for everyone who says "oh but the RGM has reset and it's not here yet" There is a new game mode(Nemesis draft)so we may have to wait for a while b4 urf will be back. Be it another full rotate or maby in the next 2/3, but i am 100% positive that it WILL come back, so just hold tight. Riot would NOT be THAT dumb to remove the game mode that 90%` of players LOVE.

And complaining about "no URF" will not help it come back.

Not playing league till I see URF in the lineup... Every week we ask where URF is and are never given a response I guess Riot is saying they don't care what the community wants.

WittIe Guppy7 votes

why doesn't riot just make a bunch of gamemodes that really only add one or two twists that completely change the game.

Like having double the item limit and allowing unique passives to stack, or maybe having a free for all mode on the dominion map were anybody can kill anybody, or maybe even allowing players to use doom bot abilities as purchasable items.

you know just really simple things that would undoubtedly break the game.

I am blown away by the fact that there is no urf. I understand they said it will be at least twice this year, and they can use that excuse to pretty much not bring it back till next year, but come on. We've had poro king more than urf. Who likes freaking poro king?? URF is by far the most fun the play even with the bad meta its so hectic and fun, yet they have repeated all the much more boring gamemodes more than URF. seriously wtf

Morbazan5 votes

As a primarily ARAM player, i like 'freaking poro king'. :| But i still greatly prefer URF more..

where is URF omg

"We’re looking for your feedback as we go, so let us know. GLHF!" Really? We've been asking for URF for about 3 months now, where is it? If Ascension and Hexakill be up 4 times, why can't URF be?

allblacks5 votes

I love these game modes but the same ones are appearing too often. Throw in more URF, BMB, and doom bots and I think it'll keep things a lot more interesting :)

Oh.. cool.. ANOTHER hexakill... didnt want Black Market Brawl or doombots or urf or anything.. no but hexakill for like the 10th time its... its fine...

Still missing my Urf game mode but I have never played nemesis draft so I am super excited to see/play that as well. I look forward to the enemy team giving me one of my mains on accident or enraging my team by giving one of the enemy players a current op champ...
