It is very simple. Every time you die you resurrect as a random champion.

You should keep the items you bought as that's part of the randomness. If they don't fit with your new champ just die again, if you think the RNG gods will bless you kindly.

Or if people do not like that idea pick a role like Marksmen and only get champs that are considered marksmen or something

I think this would be awesome, as long as you pick a role and resurrect as a champion who fits that role, like you said.

That sounds fun. What about builds, though?

AnomanderOct 24, 20148 votes

Well couple of options on that really.

it stays the same
get equivalent gold
you get the recommended items in equivalent gold.
it is completely random items based on gold earned

How about all hybrid items? Maybe: Gunblade Rabadon's Infinity Edge Deathfire Grasp Blade of the Ruined Orange Mobility boots

The game load under 10 champion model. A 120 model load would take 12 times as much if not more. It would be a HUGE cpu drainage. No way that this is possible without excluding 40% or more of players

Actually they could limit it to randomly becoming one of the 10 selected champions. So when you die you either become the same champion or a copy of one of the other nice chosen champs. This would drastically limit the data needed to load and gives it more strategy.

LOVE this idea, it's just the builds I'm wondering about. And the loading time. But it WOULD be interesting.

This would be awesome as an ARAM mode. More kills/deaths=More randomness

I feel like I should just go in with blank runes and masteries haha

everytime u die, you gain 10% damage, hp, armor and mr buff that stacks

Smart KittyOct 25, 20141 votes

That would make the game take too long to finish, since everytime you die you get stronger.

Cool idea, but OP has obviously never done programming before.

The lag would be INSANE, and loading would take literally 12x as long.

lorewiseOct 26, 20141 votes

I've always wondered how programming fairs in the sack.

Can you explain why load and lag would increase? Those related assets could be loaded during death timers no? I mean you're only loading the initial champions pregame and loading them while the game is active.

I remember when I played DotA on WC3 there was kind of such a mode... there was a mode where when you died you picked/got a new champion and you got as much gold as you had (with your items refunded) and when there were no more Ancients or Scourge champions/heroes left (or whatever the teams are called)... well then you were out... Well I think I remember such a thing...
