We’re getting ready to yank the Doom Bots of Doom back into the Featured Game Mode workshop! If you haven’t faced off against their unique brand of chaos yet, or if you’re itching for one last duel with Mega Tibbers, head to the Fields of Justice before the end of July 27 and get busy dying!

Doom bots were interesting to begin with, and I enjoyed but the fun died off quickly for a lot of people. I'd say Doom bots was a good idea and definitely worth trying. But I have to say that URF was worth keeping permanently. Because of URF, different champions had new versatility and new strategies to be learned. Some people found these quickly which resulted in heavy bans on Kassadin, Karthus, Hecarim, Soraka and I saw a few people terrified of Zilean because of his incredible utility. URF was a game in it's own. It brought the teamfights of ARAM to the Rift where classic strategies further evolved. I saw fragile champions dominating the jungle. Champions that people often scoff at finally being appreciated. URF was a good thing.

Please bring it back Riot. Perhaps, quarterly if not permanently?

New gamemode where you choose opponents' champs? It would be so intresting... everyone picks a champ and they get randomly distributed to all 10 players?

Here is an idea for a gamemode, you get a random champion, however, their abilities are changed to random ones, we could have an Urgot with Aatrox q,Lulu w,Blitzcrank e, and Tryndamere ulti, you don't know what you have till the game starts let the mass chaos ensue

Out of all of the "bring back URF" comments there have been very few which had had the word please in it. So Riot could we PRETTY PLEASE have URF come back to League Of Legends? Having it would bring many more players because the popularity rate would keep increasing! So we are all asking you very kindly to PLEASE bring URF back!

  • Doom bots were fun for like 3 or 4 games. After you get your icon it's just not fun anymore.

Listen, everyone loved URF, but featured game modes arn't permanent. They are meant to last 2 weeks because the enjoyment usually wears off after a while. We get it though, URF was fun, we all want it back, but constantly begging Riot to bring it back won't make it come back any faster. Every top comment so far has been "Bring back URF!" and Riot has identified this and even stated they will bring it back in the future. All we can do is wait and enjoy the fun new experiences Riot gives us. Thanks~

In my personal opinion, Doom Bots of Doom was a miss. Now, before I begin ranting, I will admit the initial thrill was there for me. I enjoyed smashing the first difficulty, saying "bring it on," only to be annihilated during my first try at five bombs. However, the fun quickly diminished for me from there. I learned that splitpushing was key, only certain champs (good lane pushers) were viable, and that grouping up to fight the bots was a terrible idea. The games focused on avoiding the bots that we had queued up to fight. It wasn't a game mode that really struck me as awfully fun. I played it along with two longtime friends in one of their living rooms, and at the end of our game vs five bomb difficulty we all sighed, said glad that's over, let's never play it again. Now here I sit, ranting about Doom Bots of Doom, having beaten the hardest difficulty twice and never desiring to play it again since its release day. I don't mean to turn this into yet another "bring back URF post," but I strongly feel that URF brought out the best of what a featured game mode is meant to be. The rules were ridiculous, the team fights out of control, and the fun never ending. I played URF mode every day I logged in. While I may be an advocate for the eventual return of URF, I'd be happy with any game mode with the same premise: an absolutely absurd set of rules that you can get into a game and laugh at. Doom Bots just wasn't that for me, and from what I've read fell similarly short to others. My suggestion is to focus on fun, ridiculous game modes rather than challenging ones. As you guys at Riot know, the modes are very popular and quickly stagnate over the two weeks they're released. Doom Bots ran their course faster than any other Featured Mode thus far for me, and I have high hopes the development team will come out swinging for the next one.

How about a game mode where summoner's can choose these doom bots on Summoner's Rift?
