New Game Mode Idea (Winnions)

EPICBrony·Apr 1, 2016·6 votes·668 views

We all remember doom bots, don't we? The fun from having being kicked over and over by over powered machines.

Let me introduce the concept of Winnions. Just you and your team against waves of minions that get stronger and more plentiful over time. Note that I said just you and your team as you will not have any minions to help you. The game starts with twice the normal amount of minions in each wave. After a while, more waves begin to appear with larger numbers and you have to plan how you will work each wave. Well you have all adc units and slowly push the lanes or power through with all tanks to attempt a quick victory. The game progresses with your team and the minions have different tricks of thier own to harass you from finding paths through the jungle to get into your base to having passives or ultimates from different champs to try and kill you.

Eventually things would get so hairy in lane that teleporting back to base would be suicide for your towers, so to help the players, each tower would have a shopping point so they can buy what they would need in lane.

Never before would you look at minions the same way again as, by late game, each one is stronger, healthier, and more terrifying to you and your team.

Would you be ready for the minion apocalypse that would arise in the Winnions game mode?

That would be an amazing game-mode! Why has no-one thought of this?

Veigar Nasus Sion Thresh Amumu (because Amumu can tank minions without getting damage)

Maybe different monsters replace minions over time (Barons, Dragons pouring down your lane xD) Or they gain unlock buffs over time (Sunfire, AR Pen, Suicide minions that deal a shitton of damage melee etc.)

Remember when I said "The game progresses with your team and the minions have different tricks of thier own to harass you from finding paths through the jungle to get into your base to having passives or ultimates from different champs to try and kill you." That's what I meant. The minions, after an over all level and time Iin the game begin developing odd skills so that they can combat champions more effectively. Early game it just feels like larger minion waves. Late game is could have a wave with flash, evelins ult on half the wave, two of the minions running with lux's ult, and one with teemo mushrooms. Things can get very different if you don't stop them too quickly.

What if the map is completely visible to the players. And what if every item is turned on, with every item turned on, every monster would turn on. Vilemaw, twisted treelines wraiths, wolves, and golems come down lane with the minions.
