All the efforts... only to be temporary.
Like the Aram skin that we got 2 years ago.
I'm having an existential crisis after realizing that Butcher's Bridge was an event 2 years ago. It seemed not so long ago. Where has time gone?
The old halloween summoner's rift was awesome. I've always thought since then that they should have made a few different rifts, maybe with minor gameplay quirks, and make which one you get just random so that each match looks much more unique. Maybe even throw in some weather effects
You'd think they'd recycle some of this content even if it was temporary. Like there's tons of detail here and there was in the project minions, halloween rift, butchers bridge... Apparently butcher's had more coding in it than an asset swap, but they have the assets!!!! Why aren't they finding a way to rebuild it with what they can keep when people have been asking a while? I can understand if they're waiting on a bilgewater event though if they're going to make things like this they should be kept in the game in some form, whether its a seasonal thing or you wait for specific events/updates.
Butcher's Bridge, aye. It was a nice map. I found myself distracted every so often by the ships and sharks that were moving "down in the abyss".
Only downside was that the Gankplank announcer drove me mad after just a few matches, and had to be muted. Personal preference, I know, but...I couldn't stand him.
"Hey guys, I'm making the preview pictures for the new arcade themed map. Any suggestions on which champion to use in fountain" "Yeah. Use Pentakill Sona" "uh... wouldn't it be more convenient to use her Arca..." "SHUT THE FUCK UP AND DO IT"
Why don't Rito offer these kinds of things as paid cosmetics.
Like the Star Guardian minions. I loved them. Let me pay money to make my game look adorable, dammit.
yea i also would have bought that sweet winter map and blood moon
yeah but then again you can just install the skins via wooxy, so what would be the benefit of paying for skins that only you can see?
I get to support riot, I get to see what I want, they get money.
Pretty straightforward.
Wow that's neat!
Wow this looks dope.
I dont hate it at all, but fuck man i was hyping that Star Guadian skybox and this is what was got instead (or at least for now?)
at least it's cool af, has an option to turn off for potatoes, and probably points towards what that teaser was for, i bet the next accent will be the star guardian ones but im done getting my hopes up until i see it on the PBE lol
This is real? Or fan made? Sweet either way.
it is real
Noice! Now...let's see if we can get an all Arcade/Boss Skin team to play on it!

It's arcade, allright. Super Mario-style flags on destroyed inhibitors, and Legend of Zelda sword/shield on destroyed turrets. RIP 1980's/1990's - when the best games ever was released.
Haha yeah this is pretty sick.
Its still the same map and the same gameplay. A map skin that lasts only a few days. Why the fuck even bother theyre doing this only because of LC$ keep that in mind. Fuck their LC$. I watched that shit once and i fell asleep due to 30min laning phases
What? LCS isn't being played on the arcade rift.
I love it!
Id rather have things like the PROJECT: SYNC again. Would be cool to team up with friends and have your side of the map and minions be special.
Anyone know of this is intended for all Summoners Rift games, namely Ranked play this time?
Surrender @20 says they are implementing an on/off switch for players to see the new map or not if they choose, so i'm hopeful this means I'll actually get to see this awesome map in my games (I personally do not like normals so don't enjoy having to play something different just to see these cool new features)
Also: they are sitting on a goldmine if they turn these into purchaseable map skins. Would buy
OH MY GOD !!! THIS IS BEAUTIFUL!!!
