I hope there's a tank only game mode with the tank class update. * /r/leagueoflegends

Hello Summoners! I'm a casual EUW player who went on reddit this morning and I found a comment on a Reddit Threat which was really intriguing and made me want to share this! Like in H1Z1, DayZ, and other games, we could have a total of a 50-100 players, teamed up as 5, 2 or even solo players, fighting on their own to survive. That would also show players skills who always say "1v1 me" and would bring more fun, especially to those who haven't been having fun in ranked lately. So why shouldn't Riot do a "King of the Hill" gamemode? I think many people would enjoy this gamemode and I wouldn't mind if it were to be permanent.

I will copy Bloomberg12's comment (this was not my idea) This could work if it was a king of the hill sort of thing where you had to get across an edited summoners rift to certain places to get points to win where there are traps along the way. The further out you went you'd get more points and getting to the end(which would be the top right hand corner or red spawn) would give you a ton of points for the time you're in it(It'd have a whole bunch of traps going off that you all have to dodge). Going down mid would have way more traps than the jungle or side lane but it'd be much faster so if you're successful you'd get more points quicker. They could disable all damage to enemies or just give you an insane amount of hp and resistances and the goal would be to CC people to ensure they get killed by traps and sent back to the start. Since lots of tanks have CC and they get to pick what champs are allowed it could work. You could even have pickups placed around the map that fill up the slots of your summoner spells(So you'd have a max of two) that allow you to place or activate a "team trap" that only affects enemies, for example one of them could make a red line in the ground and then a big axe would swing from the sky across there.(It'd be like using a viktor lazer that does insane damage but has a warning)) or you could have something like an edited tahliyha w. It could be fun but it'd take a lot of work to prevent it from being a wet noodle fight, which you might think you would want but it would becoming incredibly boring at 10-15 mins in. The only issue I see is it seems like it could be a lot of work and also spaghetti. Dota 2 actually has a gamemode somewhat like this where there are traps you can use and points to control, I forget its name though. I also can't see it being based entirely on PVP combat otherwise whoever can abuse %hp damage the most would be the best, it'd just be whoever can use lindaries the best or whoever has the most %hp naturally in their kit.

What do you think about this? I also added a poll to this to see how many people would like to have a "King of the Hill" gamemode.

I linked the Reddit Thread that I took this from in this post (just search the comment, it is not far down) Thanks to the Reddit user /r/melete for making the post - However, I do NOT mean to promote HIS idea of the tank game mode Also thanks to the user /r/Bloomberg12 for having the idea of the King of the Hill gamemode.

Have a nice day summoners! Gnar
