One For All

Flaemis·1/25/2015, 12:31:03 AM·2 votes·191 views

I would like to propose the idea of having the One For All gamemode (meaning the gamemode in which you were able to play the same champion five times against enemies who play a different champion five times, not the madness we had on the Howling Abyss but on Summoners Rift) return every once in a while (maybe every three months). The reason I am rooting for the "One For All" and not for URF, while the entire community seems to want its return, is that it actively supports creativity and counterplay. If you happen to take Caitlyn against Taric you would not want a team where even the support goes ad but probably have someone play AP-Caitlyn or Tank-Caitlyn while Taric is just stacking armor. It supports thinking outside of the box and trying new things and can be turned into funny brawls (10 premades). With the new champions, reworks, nerfs and buffs it is interesting to try out the new possibilities. Although I would advise against having it as a permanent game mode. It is more savourable if smaller doses and the number of people playing it could decrease over time, to the extend where queues get longer than you would want. It would be nice if you could consider this poorly structured proposal ^^. I am the Element Flaemis.

I don't know why you've been down voted but i wholly support your proposal for pretty much all the reasons you mentioned.

Back when OFA was on the Summoner's Rift I had a game, not kidding here, all Zed. Even the enemy team was Zed. And I thought to myself "Zed's passive and ult actually do deal in magic damage along with physical, why not capitalize on that since everyone else won't build mr anyway?". And you know what? It freaking worked!

I had absolutely no bonus to my ad at all and I dominated in the top lane while another Zed in my Lane had built Ad and got killed quite a bit, both my ally and my enemy. Admittedly I could not deal with the enemy Zed champs who built massive ad and armor pen, but I rarely had to either as they were always in the other lanes. Moreover I was the only one who built AP on either team and it was perfectly fine.

Because I focused my build, and the way Zed's passive works, I was able to last hit pretty much every minion with ease and even still get good damage with my ult since I had Liandra's Torment activating on my spells. Which, having an AP focus also granted me easier access to CD items in the early game so I had more uses of my abilities than most of the other Zed's in the game.

That is the kind of fun, creative plays League needs more of and I definitely want to see One for All come back.
