New map/Game mode concept

So, the current metta and game flow of league is the same right now, as many people think where this idea I thought of something new!

I'm thinking of a 8v8 style map with 4 lanes and two junglers. The map would consist of a tropical themed Ireland that has lots of exotic themed jungle monsters and a tribal minion theme. I think with the size of the map and 4 lanes it would incourage a new meta specifly for this game mode, I think it would add something fresh and new.

New concepts for items, camps and objectives: Siege items, a bit like nexus seige deployable items would be a key part of the map adding less of your champs seige power and more about the gold you have amassed.

Camps, with the sheer scale of the map for a 8v8 a dense jungle would be needed, consisting of Vodo doctors that heal camps, sand worms that pop up randomly attacking you, adding R&G, making the jungler/s more intresting.

Objectives, like the Dragon on summoners rift variation would be key, a single objective that adds a buff out of a set few. A big objective like Xerath in ascension that buffs a single champion for a set time, not just till death, and finally a third objective that would grant a team wide short buff, like no unit collision for 1min or something small get useful.

I do know that this would never be implemented but it would be intresting; rito plz. But seriously it would be intresting seeing a meta and player base for 2 different maps and the differences

Thanks, Nevryll

Well the large scale of it means games would most likely last even LONGER than they do right now.

I can't say for others but personally most games for me last around 30-50 minutes.

The average time per player (using 40 minutes as reference) is 4 minutes for every player in game.

4x8=32 32x2=64

That means games would most likely on average last 50-70 minutes per game...

I wouldn't spend that much time on most games. League I don't mind a tense 50 minute game but that's only if laning and such goes well and nobody has completely fed/crushed enemy lane and it's mostly even.

The queue times would also be much larger due to the larger amount of players.

The gamemode would have the same problem as Dominion did.

Even if it was fun, even if there was enough people to support the new gamemode, even if people wanted to keep it alive

it would, unfortunately, fall prey to the lack of a playerbase for it

I would love a new gamemode don't get me wrong it's just that actually having one exist for an extended period of time would be a bit unethical
