Instant Battle Mode

Manticore Len·5/17/2015, 1:37:45 PM·24 votes·2,143 views

To begin with, i thought of a really fascinating mode, simple, but fascinating. You will normally pick your champions for a 5v5 game, but u will start with 50.000 Gold and you will be 18 lvl.

Then, everyone can build his items of choice, and as the title says, instantly start fighting.

The main issue here, is that the games will not last a lot. Despite that, i think it would be great to enable a gamemode like this, to give every player the chance to test his own build in the Rift and compete with others from the 1st minute of the game.

What do u think of an idea like this?

Change death timers and it will be a good mode.

**What if it's an instant join game. ** Once you die, you're out of the game and someone else can take your place.

Player's Que

  1. A Que is set up, and players can be qued up spectating the match.
  1. When a player is ejected from the game, the next person in line is allowed 30 seconds to select a champ and join the match.
  2. The next player will receive final confirmation, and spawn into the game.
  3. After 1min of inactivity, the player is considered AFK and ejected.
  4. Max Que of 5 for either side. Player gets to choose.
  5. Players select from a list of current games, or select [Auto Place].
  6. Players can chat in spectator mode.

Game Changing Plays

  1. New Champions can be entered, or same champions picked.
  1. New builds can be created to match enemy teams.
  2. Game is constantly changing, with Garens and Kalista's being traded for Sona and Katarina.
  3. Game is on small map like TT or HA.
  4. Game lasts for 15min or until Nexus is destroyed.
  5. Fog of war on spectating keeps element of surprise.
  6. Max of 5-6 players on map.

Sounds fun. It would probably be very short matches, but that might be a good thing.

There would definitely be certain champs stronger than others, and some items that would be more popular than others, but I don't think that's a problem for a temporary game mode. I don't think 50,000 is necessary though, the most expensive item is IE at 3800, and buying 6 IE is only 22,800g. Go with 25,000 for a nice round number. Then again, 50k would let you buy a full build, then sell the whole thing and buy a completely different build. Heck, if you start at level 18 you could like... take Ashe w/ TP, build full AP, ult toward the fight, then switch to a normal build and teleport in.

Remember what happens when a single tower falls in bot lane?

Quick, all push mid to end the game at 15 minutes!

Prepare for a level 18 version of ARAM :/

maybe when they release 1v1's on magma chamber xD

Why not start players at level 6 instead, with enough gold to finish there first two items? Lets say... 3.4k gold or so. Then, as an interesting feature, add the same characteristics other game modes have from Dominion or Aram; increased gold and xp gains.

I jst feel like everyone will go assassins. idk

CircusT4ffy5/18/2015, 2:10:35 AM2 votes

Put it on ARAM, and when you die you stay dead for the rest of the match - no towers no minions just more maneuverability perhaps add some statues that chars like Yasuo can dash over. Boom, instant Battle!

I think this is why ARAM exists.

I feel like people would just pick late game hypercarries like Vayne and claim they're amazing bc mehonix.

Still, i kind of want something like what ascension used to be where people can just fight.

I also want to play a full build ap Leona again :3

aram map

all of your things

death timers are now based on the time, now your level

so even though you are level 18, if you die at 5 minutes you are dead for maybe 10 to 15 seconds, or however long it would be

I'd rather not have fullbuild vayne to deal with unless I'm veigar who just has 4 zhonyas, one deathcap and one ludens.

General Spacey5/19/2015, 10:24:01 PM1 votes

everyone will pick jax/Yi/khazix and destroy you in .5 secs flat. bad idea. Plus. if you have someone like udyr with more than 18 skill points needed, what gets maxed??

Trídent5/18/2015, 2:39:24 AM1 votes

you could also add a feature where stacking champions get a little less than average amount of stacks

great idea

This seems to me like it would only work well on the Howling Abyss, with somewhat exaggerated minion and tower stats to keep the game from going too quickly. It'd just be awkward on the Rift, since everyone starting at teamfight strength would nullify the whole point of laning.

Been suggested probably about 80 times and we all think it is a good idea but Rito is just like "We will bring back Hexakill Twisted Treeline! But it is different now because it has bans!!!"

TurquoiseYoshi5/18/2015, 12:08:25 AM1 votes

Three things to improve the idea (in my opinion):

  1. The money amount is a bit too much. I saw the comment that said that it would allow you to build multiple builds, but the low times that will be on the game will make it kinda pointless. If you want to use different builds, you could just requeue for a different match.
  2. Baron and Dragon would probably need to be either turned off or nerfed for the gamemode. The whole game would just focus around these points, since they would be large advantages in a match with very few of those.
  3. Take away the outer turrets so that the game doesn't stretch out too long. The turrets would go down very fast once they were pushed, so why bother having them. It would just prolong the match unnecessarily. Other than that, I really like this idea. It would be a fair way to test teamfights, or just to mess around for a few minutes. My only other idea is to make a smaller map just for this gamemode, but that probably wouldn't happen.

Yes an Arena would be nice for the lols

What about them apples?

Seems bad for the multitude of champions that fall off hard late game....

Also stack building champs will have a hard time.Nasus

i feel like this would be a nice twist to nemesis mode
