An arcade style game mode?

With the arcade line of skins growing why not introduce a sort of Arcade Boss game mode. Something like a cross between Doom bots and Ascension? Or the new bloom Year Beast event from dota is more accurate to what im trying to describe if anyone would be familiar with it (if not, youtube it). Maybe you being on a small 3-5 cell team versus one huge empowered champion (final boss) either player controlled or bot adjusted to be able to withstand an onslaught from an entire team, such as how the final boss Veigar teaser video was conducted. You only get a limited amount of lives (respawns) and a set time limit, and your opponent is just in a super powerful boss state while your team is relatively weaker requiring coordination and turtling to survive and defeat the designated Arcade boss.

As i mentioned the closest most accurate pre-existing example of what im thinking of is the Year Beast event mode from Dota 2. I mean you can chew the idea up alot more than this of course but im just discussing the idea in its base form :3 But I'd like to hear what anyone has to say.

That sounds interesting! Somewhat like a doom bot mode, maybe?

Mini bosses can go to lanes, and final boss can just sit at where nexus would be. Secret boss baron XD

Problem with modes like doombots is they have a very limited amount of times they'll be fun for. That being said, I'd play the heck out of it.

Maybe make it a map to be played with 6 players (2 per lane), a vertical map with the humans starting on the bottom, 3 lanes with every wave the minions get stronger (more so then normal), at every tower there is a mini boss that protects it designed to be able to take on 2 champions at once, and like you said at the end a big ass boss inside his own special arena filled with changing hazards like floor traps and moving walls.

Sounds like fun.
