Bigger Map with a Longer laning-phase?

Probably not in a big group hear but the laning phase is my favorite part of a game. just you up against one other guy or 2v2 where you can really feel their playstyle and they can feel yours. when i get a kill in lane, (not from a gank) its like the most rewarding kill i can get. its not a 2v1 kill or a snowball kill (i'm way ahead and its super easy) or just a 'catch someone off gaurd kill'

Thats why i think it would be nice to have a new slightly Bigger map (still 5v5) with an extra tower in each lane for a longer laning phase.

anyone else? would there be a better way? or do you just hate the laning phase lol?

I love the laning phase. The problem with new maps is that no one uses them.

So when 1 team gets an advantage and pushes all lanes it will be EVEN HARDER to recover.

A laning phase is already like 10 minutes long usually, if not longer, it doesn't need to be even longer.

If they implemented a bigger map. I wouldn't play it unless it was 7v7. Games would take around an hour to an hour and a half. That being the AVERAGE time. If the map gets bigger, EVERYTHING else should be increased as well. i.e. Not two but FOUR buff camps.Maybe adding a Poison Adder camp with a new effect? Maybe a Mage Camp or Elemental camp. While Baron and Dragon still there but slightly stronger, they create a a Basilisk or Lion (some type of beast, use your imagination) camp. Add smaller but new jungle camps and divide them evenly. Maybe you can have TWO junglers now? What about the triple bot lane? Quad jungle with all solo lanes? Making everything bigger just increases the versatility and would really push people towards a meta they didn't even know existed. Cool idea though!
