Maps & Modes Ideas

Hello everyone, This is something that I think will bring a ton of players to League of Legends and improve the game overall. There are multiple types of maps and game modes I would absolutely LOVE to see. It would be awesome to have a section in the game for mini-games such as URF, Doom Bots, 1 for all, etc. I have done a bit of research on past League of Legends maps, some people who have been here for a while might remember them. Just a map concept that was changed into Dominion = Magma Chamber. And the old map which became The Howling Abyss = Proving Grounds. Those two maps would be great to have back in the game.

I know this has been said by so many people and i've heard rumors that it will be coming back. URF. It was a lot of fun, I think it would be a great addition to have back in the game. Bring back Doom Bots and 1 for all as well.

Magma Chamber would be such a fantastic map to have. Not only is it bigger than Summoners Rift but it looks like so much fun. Magma Chamber pic

I know Proving Grounds was changed into The Howling Abyss and it wasn't that good due to the blackness surrounding the bridge, but it would be a pretty cool, nostalgic map to play on. Proving Grounds pic

There should really be a Free For All type of map. It should be a fairly big if it goes up to 10 players.

A Tower Defense styled map would be awesome. Essentially you would select your champion as normal. It will be a 5v1, One player will be the attacker, 5 will be the defenders. The attacker will spawn minions each round with gold, there will be different types of minions the attacker can spawn (Caster, Super, Charger, Baron Buffed minions) which will each cost different amounts. The defenders can move their champions around in one lane, similar to The Howling Abyss. They must defend against the minions and protect their turrets, inhib and eventually Nexus. Early game will be pretty slow but will progress as the game goes. The more gold the attacker has, the more minions he can spawn. Gold income will need to be increased as the normal income would be pretty hard to spawn minions.

There needs to be a map editor mode where you can basically design your own map and create it how you want it. That way the players and community can create their own game modes.

Four Corners, which I discussed in another thread. Take a look here: 4-Corners Thread

Riot won't create more maps. They already said it. They are affraid to "divide" the community. Which is kinda stupid I agree, because people will just swap to other MOBAs which support their type of game. (HotS and Dota2 for example)

Plus the fact that If you want to create the tower defense game you could simply buy a full RTS game (ie Starcraft / Warcraft / Age of Empire) and create these game modes with even more flexibility.

i always thought a cool one would be classic mode, where u bring back an old map like the old twisted jungle map. A nostalgic experience and fun game to play

I prefer the 1v1 magma chamber because the large magma chamber was eventually transformed into dominion and we all know how that happened. I posted a few discussions on Magma chamber and how it could be revived (sorry if it could be considered spam, but I hope it gives you a few ideas http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/summoners-rift/L1PFObhd-1v1-and-2v2-gamemode-ideas-discussion-on-magma-chamber)
