@Riot are we ever going to get another permanent game mode?

You've given us so many temporary game modes. Is it so much to ask for to get another permanent mode, or maybe just let us play past featured game modes in customs?

Custom games don't need to be balanced cause they don't mean anything and are usually for fun.

I don't know. It still blows my mind that Riot wastes so many development resources on developing new game modes that will only be popular for a few days and played by a miniscule % of the population when they know the vast majority of people just want U.R.F. Mode back. It just makes no sense - even from a business perspective.

They'd be better off just bringing URF back every now and then instead of developing other modes. URF was just the best. Whoever came up with the idea is a genius.

I would have to guess that it's costly to keep the extra game modes up for an extended amount of time.

I don't think it costs them any more than normal games. I think I remember Riot saying they don't want to have too many game modes because it will end up with increased queue times for normals/ranked, if more people only play the new game mode.

Except no one really plays the new game modes. If I want a break from a serious SR League game but still want to play League, I wouldn't be playing some stupid game mode I know is only going to last for 2 weeks. I would much rather play something like URF - I can still play the basics of League with the champion I enjoy playing but also know that it is casual and really fun.... not some stupid "Battle of the Poro" or have the enemy comp pick a champion for me I probably don't want to play and be stuck in a game with it for 45 minutes.
