New Game Mode Idea: Monster

AntiAlias··2 votes·762 views

Okay, so I was thinking today that with as many champions as we have that have horrific lore, and some that might just be modified rips of horror Khazix movies Rengar themselves, We've not had a single game mode that involves the Alien-esque "Trapped with the Big Bad" situation that the movies themselves crated. So, here it is!

PICK AND BAN RULES

  1. This is on the Dominion map, and, as implied by the section title, it is Draft (But you can play blind if you feel it would be more interesting!)
  2. The Monster is alone against a team of 5 "Survivors", split into two categories: Military and Protector. *The Military are the ones to build damage, be slippery enough to escape the Monster, and hold out (hopefully) long enough to kill the monster. * The Protectors are the tanks and brawlers whose jobs are to Slow down the Monster, defend the Military, and, if necessary, sacrifice themselves for the Military to survive.
  3. The Monster must be a Champion that is either Not Human or Ambiguously Human (EG. Elise, Viktor, Yorick)
  4. Complimentarily, the Survivors must pick a Champ that's True Human or Essentially Human (EG: Ahri, Diana, Singed). The Survivors must also limit themselves to one Healer if they choose to have one.
  5. Permabans would be Shaco, Teemo, Twisted Fate, Heimerdinger, and Eve for either Multipresence, Invisibility/True Visibility, or both.
  6. Ever hear of a Horror movie where the survivors teleport through a wall? No? Well, there you go. No Flash Allowed, Monster or otherwise.

IN-GAME

  1. The Military can only enter the map after the Monster has Killed once or 5 minutes have passed.
  2. Survivors can attack the Monster, but cannot kill them. If they kill the monster once, they are forced to sit out for 3 minutes in the outer ring, and if everyone else is dead with no lives left while this penalty is in action, then the Monster wins. If you are a Military bringing Crits to the table, then the penalty still applies if the Crit Kills.
  3. The Survivors must (for lack of a better word) Survive the Monster's onslaught for 15-30 minutes (Decided by host) and then grab the Storm Shield to be able to kill the Monster, effectively winning the game.
  4. The Kill period for the Monster will only last as long as the Storm Shield, and the one who has it is the only one who can land the killing blow, but their Protector is allowed to deal as much CC and damage without killing as they want.
  5. Survivors can only pair in groups of two, and unless the Monster is chasing your pair, you are not allowed to interfere with the chase. it is recommended to pair one Military with one Protector.
  6. This leaves the one Loner. The Loner is allowed interference from pairs, but only as long as they do not stick to the pair and instead moves on. The Loner can be either Military or Protector.
  7. The Monster must be alerted to the pairs at the beginning of the game and any time pairs are swapped.
  8. The game ends when either the Monster dies once due to conditions set above or the Survivors die twice.
  9. Survivors may get one free back for every level they put into their ult, whereas the Monster can back any time.

Good luck and Have Fun, Summoners!

how is yorick LESS human than ahri?

Fair point, looking it over, but my way of looking at it is that Yorick, being one from the shadow Isles, may (barely) resemble a human, he has developed and adapted to the area by becoming as far from human as one can while maintaining the physical form.

Ahri, on the other hand, is a creature who took human form, and soon after developed human morals and human nature. While I admit this delves into the "what makes a human human" debate, it's just kind of my way of looking at it.

TL;DR Yorick has distorted himself beyond humanity because Shadow Isles and Ahri took on the ways of a human being shortly after taking their physical form, thus moving closer to humanity.

well if you think a half fox woman that fucks men to steal his life esence is less human than a gravedigger than died and revived just to live every day of his life with the sin of not completing his destiny... okay for you i guess.

"...Feeding on their desires brought her closer to her dream, but as she took more lives, a strange sense of regret began to well within her. She had reservations about actions which never troubled her as a fox. She realized that she could not overcome the pangs of her evolving morality." -Ahri's Lore page

While I realize what both of them did, Ahri developed morality beyond what you claimed. And I do respect your opinion, but as one who has been invested in the lore since Season 3, I've done my research into this. A tl;dr lore does not a character make, and I base my verdict on that principle. Also, if even Riot will acknowledge Yorick as "A terrifying and tragic figure,... a ghoulish being that exists on the edge of mortality", then I will follow that as well.

It's like a much more defined version of Hide-n-seek. I like it.

No, that is pretty much EVOLVE.

Okay, I'm gonna level with you here: Would you believe me at all if I said I have yet to see any gameplay or information about EVOLVE? I didn't really get interested in it, to be honest. Kind of ironic!

Doesn't mean is not evolve XD you just didn't know XD

AntiAlias1 votes

I know, haha, I was just saying, the irony comes from the lack of inspiration from one idea resulting in a similar product.
