Rotating game mode queue now live!

Riot··1 votes·40,461 views

From the original clone-tastic One For All to the sand-strewn battlefield of Ascension, 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: Hexakill: Twisted Treeline is now live!

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

  • It’s Twisted Treeline, so there are altars to capture and a nexus to explodify.
  • It’s Hexakill. So there are six champs on your team instead of three.

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.

Hexakill: Twisted Treeline 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’re looking for your feedback as we go, so let us know. GLHF, and we’ll bring a sixth man alongside you in the Twisted Treeline this weekend.

YES!! I need more URF! I would also love to see the URF system combined with some of the other special game modes. Something like a nemesis draft URF, all random URF (probably still on SR), or hexakill URF could be a lot of fun!

All random URF is great you get to see obscure awesome plays other than wukong and fizz. [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

YESSSS IM DYING TO PLAY SOME MORE URF

TEEMOcalypse4 votes

as much as i love URF, the break from it does prevent fatigue of the gamemode. I welcome the other gamemodes bc it makes URF that much sweeter to play

One is probably Nexus Siege and the other is (hopefully?) URF. The order will just depend on when Nexus Siege is done with PBE testing.

Let it Be URF but With a Twist!!! 1st event is like urf with Mirror mode on each side and other one is URF with all random and hexakill integration? :D

Maybe is too much of a hassle, but figured this might be a good mix up to try.

P.S. enabled all maps for these modes?

Kazu6 votes

How about URF but random champions so you don't have the same champions over and over?

Every month when I see that hexakill is coming I'm always dissapointed when I see the same two words every time, "Twisted Treeline". If by any chance this gamemode was played a on Summoners Rift many people may give it a try. I mean it seems logical: 2 top, 1 jungler, 1 mid, and 2 bot; or 2 people per lane. I feel that having this gamemode on twisted treeline makes the game feel more cramped. I'm positive many more people would play this gamemode (and myself included) if hexakill was played on Summoners Rift.

Having it on twisted treeline is what makes it more fun, since it is more cramped.

Trust me, playing it on Summoners Rift isn't as fun as it sounds.

Kürama9 votes

Agreed.

It actually was on Summoners Rift when it first came out in season 4. I didn't play it but it wasn't that great I heard. It's better on hexakill because you really feel the huge amount of people on the small map.

"It seems logical: 2 top, 1 jungler, 1 mid, and 2 bot; or 2 people per lane. I feel that having this gamemode on twisted treeline treeline makes the game feel more cramped"

Exactly why it should be on TT. On SR, having 6 players is a 20% increase in players whereas on TT, it's a 100% increase. It impacts TT much more than it would SR.

no more urf summoner 12 goodbye

Mabdiel15 votes

Those 2 have to be blackmarket brawlers doombots or urf if not it's ascencion and hexakill again ._.

Kürama9 votes

They're likely Nexus Siege.

Pokemichael10 votes

Better be one of those or nexus siege

Dabrick0111 votes

Um. The one on the 15-18 was Poro king. It was in the last one.

Kürama6 votes

Likely swapped out for Nexus Siege, since Poro King has been on rotation for a while now.

I dont understant riot. the comunity has been begging for urf lately. Riot why not just give us urf for a real in game game mode. players that wanna mess around in can go to solo que or urf, and the trya hards can go on ranked or draft. JUST GIVE US URF

Dynikus1 votes

The vocal minority are the ones begging for URF. Riot looks at actual stats on how many people queue for each game mode, and URF always has a huge drop off after a few days, because most people get tired of it after a couple games. If they kept it up year round, it would go the way of dominion.

Stew Pidas3 votes

Sure maybe it is a minority of people that want to play URF when compared to normal Summoner's Rift...but if it's a vocal minority of people begging for URF, then I can guaranf***intee you there's an even less vocal minority begging for Hexakill every other week

Xarvian6 votes

What happened to URF? it was always the second one in the rotation and now it isnt appearing at all. are you guys doing away with it from RGM or tweaking it or what?

Kürama4 votes

They're changing the schedule to keep it fresh. The two mystery modes will likely be Nexus Siege.

BurakkuHishou8 votes

Hexakill on every other week is fresh? At least they could rotate them so that they all get played before repeated.

PLS Rito I need back the love of urf. Here is a poem dedicated to URF URF- URF is freedom URF is life When I play URF it gives me a high I even sometimes get the tingles Dear rito god pls it's not Shingles It may be Aatrox load to ask for But Ahri n't friends Akali ask you this final favor Alistar t to consider Do you see Annie body complaining Yes? Too Bard then. When I die I don't want to take to my Graves that I didn't play another URF in the year of 2016 I really don't wanna Jinx anything But pls LeeSin to the cries of 14 yrs old Because we will not last this age as we are told Nocturne off the lights and think it clearly Because the LOL community needs URF oh so greatly. AMEN!- By Me

Ok seriously, where is URF? Where is Doom Bots? Where is Black Market Brawlers? We've had One for All, Ascension, etc. so many times, but we've only had URF (The best one) twice, and not even once have we had Doom Bots or BMB. PLEASE give us these other game modes we haven't had yet, and then give us URF more than just twice this year. We still have an entire half a year, it would be REALLY boring if it was a cycle of One For All and Ascension the entire time.

AurielionSol0072 votes

You realize Doom Bots and Black Market Brawlers arent just Copy Pastas because of the changes that have happened since they were released to Champs and Items.

BurakkuHishou3 votes

BMB i believe is merely just becoming Nexus siege. If you look at the game mode it really is just BMB just with a smaller map and slightly different play style.

SOmething like Urf and One for All. That would be awesome! Or maybe Hexakill on Summoner's rift. That would be sick
