Dear Riot, Thanks for your wonderful support and sympathy in the past. Thank you for being so kind and helpful. Also thank you for creating the best online game in the world! Yet, I have a suggestion for you. I really enjoyed the deep lores of the champions in lol. So Could you please create a story mode so that you will be able to attract even more players to be engaged in lol? The story mode can be based on the lore of the champions and every level can be completed by either single player solo or team co-op. In every level, the player may choose the difficulties which can be unlocked by playing from the easier ones to the harder ones. The difficulties can be starting from novice, then expert, then master, and finally to king. Also, the greater the difficulty, the more xp and ip each player will receive. The story mode can be saving progress after each level is unlocked by each player so that the progress of the story mode is only saved on one individual account only of all players. Each level of the story mode can be started off after the player has selected one of his owned champions and two of his own summoner spells. The enemies in each level can be certain kinds of normal jungle enemies and then there will be a boss at the end of each level and there will be a final big boss at the end of each stage. Each stage may contain couple of levels, maybe 10. Each stage can be based on different environments. For example, stage one can take place demacia and stage two may take place in noxus. Moreover, the further level the player goes, the tougher the levels will be to complete. However, the player's champion must start at level one in each level but can revive at the closest checkpoint every time it dies. There will also be a merchant selling all kinds of buffs and boosting items at each checkpoint of all levels so that players can purchase by their coins earned temporarily by killing enemies in each level. In short, you should create a RPG-like story mode similar to what I explained so that it can make lol much more enjoyable than its current condition. If you create a story mode, everyone will be extremely happy and thankful about it. Anyways, thanks to all of your help and care in the past. I hope that you may take my advice and have a wonderful future! Thank you so much!

Sincerely, Your devout lol fan

The problem with these concepts is, sadly, that they're fundamentally untenable for long-term gameplay, because League's mechanics aren't designed to support that.

Even the most complicated champions are, quite frankly, alarmingly simplistic when compared to the capabilities of single-player game characters from any remotely modern game. They're designed to be fun to play, yet to also not be overwhelming in the fast-paced, decision-making environment that is a real-time, tactical PvP team game.

Put into an environment that doesn't tax the player's ability to read the gamestate and react to changes so quickly, a character with only 4 abilities (several on longer cooldowns) becomes much more boring. I think you'd find that gameplay becomes stagnant and uninteresting pretty quickly without the human element of the other team coming into play.

I just posted an idea for a new game mode that is very similar to your idea by adding more depth and lore into the game. Would this be something you're talking about?

100% agree, but I thought there would be like 2 bots for bosses and you would have a bot companion depending on who you are. I thought of this but never made a post, I was waiting for someone to make this. Thank you, this needs to happen!

I would definitely choose Ahri , such lore.
