Hello, I am someone who has been playing League of legends for coming up on 4 years in February. I really loved the old TT map, but I understand there were problems with it so I did not mind the update as much, but now that SR is getting so many updates wouldn't it be nice if they showed TT some love?
All the other game modes could/should have their own themes reinforced with their own minions, monsters and buildings. (Don't forget the brushes.)
Twisted Treeline could have this spooky, dead and corrupted architecture and theme. Buildings are but tainted ruins, and twisted minions are dressed in withered cowls and armed with thematic weapons. The monsters could use more differentiation from Summoner's Rift, along with their Smite Bonuses and summoning animations. I don't know, the jungle feels pretty peculiar to me in this map. Maybe it could be expanded some how. As for Vilemaw, it could be brought to Baron's level when it comes to combat mechanics, giving it this more epic monster feel. It currently is quite impressive, but it could use some pattern.
As for Howling Abyss, the turrets already have this unique, thematic architecture, along with the destructibility. It could be implemented to the Inhibitor and Nexus. Minions could be accustomed to the cold and the place, with their clothing and weapons.
Crystal Scar is obviously the biggest offender, it hasn't been touched for quite some time after all. The whole map could use the update, similar to the others. Currently I feel it doesn't tell its story. The score system needs an overhaul too, to better reflect players' contribution.
Riot puts more effort into temporary game modes than they do their own permanent queues it's disgustingly pathetic.
