back in the days of warcraft 3 people created a game called hero line wars. the map was split left vs right. each team had their champs, items and everything else you would normally have access to. the catch was there was waves of minions being sent down automatically and you could choose to buy items... or send more troops to overwhelm your opponent. this game mode should be available in my opinion it was created in the days when MOBA didn't even exist as an actual title and i believe anything that was created in the same bracket should exist as a game mode, not just your dota format.

I miss a lot of the custom games from WC3.

i really do get the whole purpose and goal of LoL and i really do understand why they haven't gone another direction, but there really should be a few other game modes i'd honestly play more. i cant stand doing classic 5v5 because of all the hate and the worst part is its not even ranked. so much trolling its just stupid... i play mostly aram because its random ( mostly ) and its team fights right off the bat the pressure is quite a bit less. i do however really enjoy the event maps they do i think they are very creative and enjoyable but they don't last long enough to really enjoy them if you know what i mean.

maybe just a piece of me believes that because league is the leader in moba game play and these guys are the ones that really paved the road that was started almost 20 years ago already....that they would also be the ones to maintain it and restore the history a bit as well. in my world i believe there are certain responsibilities we must attend.

there also used to be a cheese game called hero wars and its was a totally open match without lanes and you won by scoring kills for your team.

i hope the gods can hear this

Orcs Must Die Unchained just entered closed beta.

MOBA/tower defense hybrid where you upgrade your army and your defenses as you play with the goal of getting your minions to push all the way through while preventing the enemy's from doing the same.

You're welcome.

Riot would never do it. They have already proven with their refusal to support Dominion that they will never expand or support any alternative concepts for what a MOBA can really be, or explore the genre at all. They don't care about a wider audience. They prefer to just funnel everything into esports.

Just play OMDU.

just a side comment though, a negative attitude never accomplishes much which is only the cliche of this entire community. if more people banded together greatness could be accomplished.
