Team Deathmatch when? (Sorry for the long read)
I REALLY like the idea of a team deathmatch mode for League of Legends, a match where the goal isn't to push down a lane, destroy structures or to farm minions. Just an all out brawl mode, where from minute one, you CAN and are encouraged to start duking it out. Yes, I can and will admit that ARAM's are pretty close to what I'm talking about here, but even ARURF's and ARAM's can go up to 20-30 mins if it's a stalemate. The matches could be very quick, maybe each team could have a certain amount of "respawns" or lives, or it could be a last team standing, kind of thing. There are plenty of examples out there of these kinds of games, I'm sure I don't have to go into too much detail to explain it.
In ARAM's and ARURF's, you can fight from the get-go, but you still can't win unless you push into the enemy base and take out structure by structure, or coordinate to get objectives. And, even if you are going back and forth in ARAM's, if your comp can't siege a tower without being absurdly ahead, then you're forced to sit there and watch as the enemy outscales you and makes quick work of your structures. Meanwhile, in such a fast paced game mode like ARURF, you still have to slow down sometimes and plan your next move.
It would be really cool to just queue up for something like this, get in a match, kill some champs, get killed a few times and then it's over and on to the next one.
_P.S. This was written on the fly, so obviously, it's not the most well thought out suggestion, but I genuinely want an open dialogue about it. Maybe, we can create some buzz. So, if you have ideas, or concerns on the matter, let me hear them? _
TL;DR: Team Deathmatch, all fighting, no farming? Yes. PLEASE. Thoughts?
