Thats just it lol, URF's files are still on the PBE (notably the urf buff) as well as several URF themed icons. Interested to see where they're going with this.

I hope this is the April Fools' joke and that actual URF is brought back. [Permanently.]

Well URF itself was an April Fools joke so... :p

Sorry but Featured Game modes will NEVER be permanent so keep dreaming. http://na.leagueoflegends.com/en/news/game-updates/features/featured-game-modes-2014

URF was a good joke. Doom Bots... Not so much.

I already know that Riot won't make featured game modes permanent, and they probably won't ever put more human skeletons into the game/stop removing human skeletons, but just because those are the choices Riot has made/will make doesn't make them good ones.

I remember a Rioter stating that the reason that featured game modes are temporary is because they have such a large fall-off in participation soon after their release... Yet we still have Dominion, Twisted Treeline, and Howling Abyss. They all went down in terms of participation rates not long after they were released, but they're still here, and they still provide enjoyment to the players that frequently play on those maps.

This would just be stupid lol?

Like, I don't even see the potential fun in being able to do nothing all match.

I think it'd be very entertaining to see if people could do anythin at all.

Honestly I wasn't much into URF. It was cute but really just normal League with the Fast Forward button pushed down.

Assuming Riot is serious with this...this just feels like a big middle finger to the people who did enjoy URF. :-\

I thought bringing back a game mode was supposed to improve the original concept.

Haven't seen a MOBA company make a move this spiteful to it's niche players since Hi-Rez and SMITE.

Wait, SMITE did something like that?
