Can we actually get better rewards for playing them? Champion mastery and more IP

Well, ARAM I don't see why you would get champion mastery, cuz everything is always teamfights

Dominion you just have to run around well enough to capture objectives, not really learning champ

They gotta fix the other shit in Twisted Treeline before they even consider anything else.

EDIT: Okay, so I can be fair here, I don't play dominon much, and the few times I do, its with bots. So sorry for generalizing it in such a way

I just think that if there is a better award more people will play it. (Maybe less bots or more will appear ?) I want to get into the other modes but I want them to actually get fixed first. Its not that i'm tired of SR, its just that LoL needs more successful game modes in order to grow even more.

Fair point, but Riot has mostly abandoned those other maps Hell, they abandoned the tutorial We still have Ryze, the mana skillshot caster, as the easiest to get into in the tutorial, garen is still recommended to build brutalizer into black cleaver, ect...

Its not that I don't want these things to see more love, but baby steps, we already have skin boosts and mark/dash in ARAM, we shall see where it goes from there

And with Hexakill coming back they may do some renovations on TT

I'm hyped for em! :D

Though I still think they should do some Gameplay updates on CS too.

You just run around and capture objectives. Nobody would play the mode if this was the concept.

You have to know how to manoeuvre around the turrets to be able to kill your opponents, then capture the point. You need to take advantage of the jungle (the middle of the map), possible backdoors and you need to be able to win team fights, even when tower-diving.

Funny thing about that, seems like over 1/2 the people are bots anyway >.>

KüramaMay 28, 20152 votes

Funny, cause I got them like 4 times, maybe 5, and never got em again. If you are getting bots in your matches, please report them.

Things got significantly better towards the start of the season. During the winter the number of bots was just ridiculous.

Ah.

Champion mastery is about how well and how long players play as each champion. ARAM playstyle may not be the same as SR, but players can/are still improving their personal skill there. Skill sets don't perfectly overlap between different maps, but champion familiarity certainly translates well enough.

Dominion you just have to run around well enough to capture objectives, not really learning champ

Dominion is focused around skirmishing and map control. Backcapping is on the same level as backdooring in SR: it's a possible option, but by no means is it the standard tactic.

"Dominion you just have to run around well enough to capture objectives, not really learning champ" Soooooooooooooooo wrong. I love when this kind of player is in my matches. I end up making them get flamed by their team and I don't have to say a word to make it happen :D
