Why can't URF be a permanent mode?

DropFill··4 votes·3,357 views

I remember when the community asked riot to make ARAM a thing. After sometime riot actually made a permanent queue for it. So I am asking, why can't URF be a permanent mode too? It was the most fun game mode I have ever played, and the only one I actually enjoyed besides ranked

Well, if Urf was a Perm game mode, that would be P-URF!

Get it?

Cause 90% of the community would play that over any other mode and the game would thus die in all other areas... so no.

So the community enjoying a lot a game mode is bad looks like.

Main issue that I've seen is server fracturing. Smaller servers/regions already suffer from not having enough players to adequately support matchmaking. Temporary modes are fine because in the end they go away, a new permanent game mode however would take players away from the other ques and cause even more numbers issues.

Of course then there's the argument of "why not just do it for the servers that can handle it?", and then you get to flak from accusations of exclusivity, catering to certain regions, yada yada.

ARAM didn't run into these issues because it was already a game mode made by players through customs and simply proved it could be a que already.

The problem is that we can't do such a game mode through customs like URF, since the lol platform doesn't support a lot of things to players for create. I would prefer taking away both dominion and ARAM for URF by far, and I think a lot of people would agree. Or making URF for customs games would be also good.

I think just taking away dominion for URF would be great. Dominion is a deserted land.

I think this would be also a good idea too. But if riot only made URF for custom games would already be great by now. I think the community prefers much more URF instead of ARAM and dominion

Remember when URF was around? Remember how every day there was dozen of topics being made to have a champ perma-ban in the mode cause it was to good and unfun to play against?

Sona Perma-ban

Hecarim Perma-ban

Skarner Perma-ban

Poppy Perma-ban

Ryze Perma-ban

Karthus Perma-ban

And if was still around, Azir would be Perma-ban.

If the mode was still around, the only champ that wouldn't be Perma-ban would be Rumble

So it wouldn't be URF mode..it would be Rumble mode.

I don't remember of Karthus being perma ban. Also, this is not true. Only this few champions were actually problems. Maybe one or two more, but not that much as you said. Let if so we can make custom games with urf at least

Karthus was perma-ban.

And with each perma-ban, people would start spamming the next champ that is easy to win with, then the board get spam with "perma-ban this champ"

It happen so many times.

It is a fun game mode. Isn't supposed to be totally balanced. The champions who were stupid to play against were permabanned.

And that my point.

Hec was fun, Skarner was fun, Poppy was fun. But then everyone was using them and then they got perma-ban. What the point of a mode for "fun" when every champ is ending up perma-ban due to not being fun to play against.

Every champ no, as I said, most of the problematic champions were banned.

Riot will bring back the game mode in this season - it was already stated that it got more positive feedback than any other change in its history.

Im so bad yuck1 votes

Yeah, bring URF back. And then people will whine after 2 or so days because the meta of what-is-not-yet-permad-yet-op-as-fuk was formed and people would ONLY play meta picks.

Like the only champions who weren't cancer during URF were Rumble Yasuo , and that's only because Rumble gets worse with CDR and Yasuo was pretty much the same champion.
