@Riot RGM(sorta) Idea: Champion Minigames Queue & CMQ #1 Skarners Hive.

So i played a game of Skarner recently and that got me thinking, I remembered back to a time when me and my friends played a little minigame called Skarners Hive. Where 1 Skarner chose 1 crystal to protect, and fill the nearest bush with pink wards.

And that also reminded me of Xing Tians Mountain of Smite. So i thought...

Why dont we have little champion themed minigames that maybe play during the week instead of the weekend like RGM?

Its simple, every week (or 3 days of said week etc. etc.) A champion themed minigame is available to play. They are more niche game modes with a lot more gimmicks (although they may be harder to program cause of it) that are more of just fun side-offs from main gamemodes. The champion themselves may not be playable and have a sort of idle model in the game itself, as it is his gamemode afterall (sadly probably not voice acted, probably in the chat) Ones i thought of are:

Skarners Hive: I will explain in this post in detail.

Azirs Soldiers: (kind of like the one chess room in WoWs Karazhan only with League Champions) Or maybe WK Azirs Soldiers: where instead of Chess its Chinese Checkers

Braums Poro Roundup: A sort of race/hide and seek game (maybe on winter rift) Where champions that all have winter themed skins (instaunlock the skins via skin boost, otherwise they are in classic/whatever skin you own) try to collect more poros roaming around the map than the other team.

Braum/Sejuanis Campaign: Players are forced to play as the DnD champions as they go through a solo minicampaign (maybe randomly generated for replayability?) (Drop an Acceleration gate, and hit 'em with a hyper charge)

Thresh's Dark Star Singularity: Yes the new game mode coming soon makes sense for this new queue.

SKARNERS HIVE - CHAMPION MINIGAME QUEUE

Note: This minigame is explained in a way where you can play it wether or not riot adds it so that you can still play it with your friends if the enemy team is willing.

Welcome to Skarners Hive.

Objective: There are 2 Control Wards in either Skarners teams Red/Blue side bush nearest to Skarners Crystal. Your goal as the enemy team is to get to and destroy both Control Wards. With every Ward you destroy, you get 1 free Tower Kill. However every 2-3 minutes that past since the last ward was destroyed Skarners team gets a free Turret. After all 11 turrets are destroyed, you still must win 1 last engagement to destroy the Nexus.

Rules:

1. ALL players must agree to the game.

2. If you manage to destroy both wards (usually via Ace) You have to recall.

3. Inhibitors can only be taken if to destroy a nexus turret. At that point 1 member on each team must stay back in the base and kill minions that reach the steps of the base. If your team doesnt have any inhibitors lost, you still must be in base... enjoy the scenery.

4. Trapping champions ARE allowed, but so are sweeping trinkets.

5. All members on Skarners team must stay in their respective jungle quadrant, with the exception of after returning to base.

6. No body except the respected base defenders should have any farm at the end. (pick the same defender every inhibitor kill please) That means no Farming in Lane or in the Jungle for both sides.

7. Dragons/Rift Heralds/Baron are not permitted.

8. ALL Rules must be followed in order for the game to proceed. Any player breaking the rules will cause the game to proceed as if it was a normal summoners rift game.

9. Skarner is the judge. And if for any reason he needs to can proclaim basic commands in the all-chat, such as "Pause" "Continue" "Reset" (to cause the opposing team to back, get more control wards etc.) etc.

What do you think? Should Riot add the Champion Minigame Queue? What other minigames do you want? What do you think of Skarners Hive? Should I do more posts for the other game modes listed in this post?
