What the fuck the environments look awesome

jQueryFeb 24, 201618 votes

Exactly!

It is gorgeous! The sad part being that this maybe was submitted to Riot contest.

Biff ManlyFeb 24, 201619 votes

Unfortunately, Riot doesn't seem keen on extra game-modes or maps. They barely let ARAM survive as a mode as is, everything else is pretty much out.

StealthWardenFeb 24, 20161 votes

according to the reason they scrapped dominion - even if this game mode were to exist it would be for a limited time.

"Look at all this work we did... now we will throw it away and never use it again."

Put the special game modes on a rotation already! [zombie-brand-facepalm]

wow I actually hope they bring this in game! Riot pretty please

I feel like if they went through the effort of introducing/creating a brand new map, they wouldn't have it for a limited time. It would be permanent. Otherwise all of that work would be pointless.

ArakadiaFeb 28, 20161 votes

Thats logical though!

BADxW0LFFeb 28, 20161 votes

Yeah, well, contrary to every butthurt person on the boards, Riot does actually make logical business decisions.

Dude this shit looks fucking awesome. It's also very Diablo-esq. I like that.

MimaropaFeb 24, 20164 votes

Awesome concept. The lore about having only a few Darkins left will be hard to connect to in terms of story and timeline. However, its better than Dominion and twisted treeline.

jQueryFeb 24, 20162 votes

They can invent some spirit reincarnation from a future possible timeline trough a void crack. That is no problem, in fact if done right it will enrich the lore even more.

It like... lets say Vi's spirit is channeled trough the void from a future timeline and materialized in the past in an alternative universe. Ha? It can work right?

an3l3Feb 24, 20162 votes

Yeah! The ancient yordle will with right in, in something like this.

MimaropaFeb 24, 20162 votes

At this point. Any Lore or story is good compared to what Riot's output.

orangepuffityFeb 25, 20161 votes

Alternate universes seems like an easy out for something like this, whether it's Riot's decision or a fan's to put it in their story. I think it gives too many open doors, and lets any fantasy just happen. It's the reason why it's used mostly in fan stories and fantastical superhero movies. Seeing the time and effort that was put into the Bilgewater and Shurima events, I think Riot will find a way to put this in with different lore, perhaps with Aurelion Sol and Mt. Targon. Just my 2 cents though.

FloRaider42Feb 24, 20163 votes

And I know why I want it.

Why ? Apart from having very well made visuals this map offers gameplay that wouldn't be very fun in my opinion.

jQueryFeb 24, 20165 votes

The visuals are great.

The lore can offer something that is very popularized now with comics being turned in to movies a lot: Alternate realities.

And the game-play can turn out to be grate too, the map is too small (compared to the Sejuani model). But this will develop its own metas; Right of the bat just around the jungle, I can see a "Double jungler" meta or a "Jungle with Support". Probably will have less walking more fighting (Like ARAM) with the team composition importance from the SR. The gameplay will be longer then SR, I really miss long matches with evenly matched players. I want to when i come from work to get in a league game and play an 70 min match(that is how much time I have) , a long game for me is always great no matter the win or loss, I feel honored and grateful to my opponents for providing me the fun intensive match.

Why do you think it wont provide a game-play direction of its own?

DairdrekFeb 24, 20163 votes

I feel like the gameplay could be much like vain glory ( mobile MOBA)

cloman100Feb 25, 20162 votes

Yup, I'm like this looks like Vainglory but way more beautiful [zombie-nunu-hearts]

Mig89Feb 25, 20161 votes

exactly what i was thinking. The JG off to one side has its advantages and disadvantages but i'd love to play league on a map like this.[slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

ArakadiaFeb 28, 20161 votes

I've played that... thats the game with gold mines right? I think I played rango alot.

Talos of AltmoraFeb 24, 20162 votes

Wow, I love the idea of the place (Darkin vs The void, count me in!) Even if it's a temporary game mode, it'd be worth it.

DocShockerFeb 25, 20162 votes

It.. Looks extremely snowball-y, honestly. I like the idea of it, but the one thing that has me confused his the tiny amount of ways into the jungle. Once a team takes one turret, the losing side automatically loses access to the jungle unless the winning side eases off in pressure to farm said jungle or are playing safe.

I don't know. Just the entrances to the jungle being tied to center of the map and at the first turrets feel strange considering you can lose the jungle when you lose the first turret. Who needs a jungler when you can just steamroll and claim all of the jungle for your team rather than one designated position? It just feels awkward imagining something like ARAM's map, but a side path in the middle and the first turrets that are the only ways into a 'jungle' section. Granted, ARAM's map would be far more suited since you could make those paths at the second turret so you'd still have access rather than lose it with the first tower AND an inhib. Just feels too tiny and clustered together, but eh. Is just my thoughts. Still a cool idea regardless.

weeaboomerFeb 25, 20162 votes

Anything that isn't a skin for the aram map?

VelasanFeb 24, 20161 votes

The key to new maps would be to have them be a part of the regular ranked environment. Instead of being an alternative mode to SR it should just be one of the possible maps when you go into ranked. That way it adds a new element to the game, changing your play styles and strategies depending on what map you land up on.

However, I don't know if this is the right map to add in. It looks cool though.

Random TaskFeb 25, 20161 votes

lol, Why would a new map have to be in ranked? We are not Heroes of The Storm, that is Blizzard's concept of map rotation.

The Mark ShowFeb 25, 20161 votes

in the warden area I dont think the path width is playable you need to give the players more room to group and dodge skill shot etc, becides I love it!

The whole map is to small, they ware probably trying not to loose to much time rendering/making the concept. I mean look at Sejuanis model, I think they imagined it at least twice as big.

MaechunbuFeb 25, 20161 votes

The only concern I could think of is that pieces of the map look quite cramped. I think If they scaled everything up there could be potential for serious talk with Papa Rito.[slayer-jinx-wink]

Occams RaiserFeb 25, 20161 votes

well forget ti cause there is only one chess board and only one SR they want to support.

It would be very sick to make a map like this but for 8 players (4vs4). Something like Hexakill = Quadrakill map !!! [slayer-pantheon-rainbows]
