NEMESIS DRAFT TOO PLAIN

I find the mode interesting but rather boring and tame. It's basically bad champs Normal Draft... I'd like some sort of flair to the mode. Such as the bans being random or making it so that kills against the person that picked your champ give a benefit because that person is your nemesis. Like say someone gives you Soraka and you gave them Elise, if Soraka kills Elise she should get double the gold or a random large stat buff. Keeps it interesting from game to game. Giving you a minigame like Rengar/Khazix for the whole game. I think that'd reinforce the Nemesis portion of the Draft so you have a true enemy the whole game.

EDIT: Feedback wise... I played two games yesterday and both games 1 person on my team got really toxic due to their champ and in once case they left at level 8... Also currently the Queue is pretty long for a new gamemode on PBE Normals are faster probably due to how hard it is to test anything when your opponents pick your champs.

EDIT2: Played another game and to be different we gave them all Mages... somehow they end up knowing all those champs and we get champs we don't know and get shit on. Basically you can only give them Pure AD champs with 0 AP Scaling and build Pure Armor and HP tank and depend on thornmail and sunfire to kill people... This is boring and bad. It'll get played for a week and then forgotten about because Normals are just more fun than the featured game mode which shouldn't happen. I had fun with every featured game mode except One for All Summoners Rift and Ascension. This one I just don't have fun. There's no real depth to this game mode it's exactly what it is at face value Normal Draft with Champs you don't like... I can just pick the champs I don't like in a Normal Game and have a better experience. Or play with 4 friends and do all AD or All AP or all unplayed champ comps. There is just no worth to picking this game mode without something extra to make it special. Not to mention it's nearly impossible to test it on PBE efficiently because no one wants to play a game mode where they can't test new things on a Public Beta Test Server (The game mode is just Normal Draft with bad champs nothing special). I'd love if you would make this mode interesting by adding something to it because currently it just makes me angry and not want to play (I always get the champs I actually like to play yet my team hates their champs and the enemy team somehow knows how to use all their champs and in higher MMR's everyone can play anything competently so it doesn't really do anything for them.

TL:DR Add something special (Such as a Nemesis system where everyone has a personal goal to kill their Nemesis (Which could be assigned randomly)) to this mode to make the Name have meaning and not be more annoying and painful to play than Normal Draft.

Pair this game mode with other game modes because this will just be plain and boring.

How exactly is Nemesis Draft boring? It's the same as a regular game, but without all the OP IMBA bullshit.

It's probably the closest you are going to get to a PURE game of League, where you win based on player skills and teamwork rather than which champ you picked.
