Featured Mode- Survival Mode suggestion

Even before Riot started creating Featured Mode I've wished there was a survival mode where a team of players are forced to face menacing bosses.

Playing the doombot mode made me feel like it is possible. You would need a streamlines map like TT Crystal Scar or MurderBridge. There would be a gate mechanism which would hold the monster/s back until either the previous objective was complete or a specific time had elapsed. The game play goal is to survive as many waves as possible. I think it would be rewarding to have a definitive amount of rounds where if you survive 3 doombot power infused barrons you actually BEAT the mode but most people would be able to brag, "Yea I got to wave 5".

Extra fun ideas for the mode would be to set kill switches to stop future waves like securing both alters in 3 v 3 or capping all points in dominion. Additionally if you survive all of the waves there could be a surrender mechanic where you vote to continue playing or maybe you choose red for one gate of monsters vs green for another gate for gameplay progression.

In general for these featured gameplay modes it feels like some kind of achievement system would augment the experience.

Just some thoughts,

Thanks!

I can see this being somewhat possible in the future as there have been quite a few people asking for an invasion mode where you have to hold out. A question with the keep playing option would be if everyone keeps playing would there be a cap as to how long you can go otherwise there would be people in parties that don't stop and that could cause issues.
