[Riot] Luau Minions only on Summoner's Rift

"Level 4: •Every lane’s a luau with Pool Party minions; they’ll make a splash for all of patch 5.12 "

This is a blatant lie thus far and am really disgusted by it. We earned this by playing Summoner's Rift, Dominion, and ARAM during Pool Party. You only enabled this for Summoner's Rift. I played all three maps today and the luau minions are only on SR. What kind of BS is this, Riot?

What a large disincentive for people to participate in future "events" when the reward is not evenly distributed. This needs to be corrected for the other maps ASAP.

I agree! If the minion change can be added to the rift, it surely wouldn't be a huge ordeal to enable them on the other maps as well. Even Twisted Treeline could see the new minions.
Granted, it is a free reward that we weren't required to pay for, it just seems nice to let other plays who don't commonly play on the rift (Some people are dedicated to other maps and thus rarely Rift) be able to see the new minion on any map.

But here's my two cents to support Riot. First, Dominion uses completely different models for minions, so it would take more time and effort to make pool party minions for that map as well. Also, Howling abyss and Twisted Treeline just don't seem appropriate for Pool Party Minions.

Agreed. I'm hoping we can see them in other maps later in this patch or by the next patch for the latest. They can leave SR in the next patch like they said and move to the other maps.

It's not a lie, it's just vaguely worded and people assumed it meant for every map. I was always under the impression that it was only for Summoner's Rift, since that's the only place they've shown the minions in.

"Every lane" clearly says SR right in it. TT has 2 lanes, HA has 1 lane...and Dom has no Lanes. They were pointing out a large multilane map XD

if u want a game that actually cares about its players play smite (I don't personally like the game but they love throwing free stuff at you that usually costs money)
