League now has changing terrain based on types of Dragons killed during the match, which tbh is a much cleaner way to spice up the game than adding 60 new items that you get from rng drops

And I thought 7.00 and talents was a huge upheaval of the game. This is borderline Dota 3 level.

I'm pretty sure league has never had couriers. I remember playing in season 1-2 and you still had to recall to base for items back then.

League of Legends has never had couriers, and I've played a bit in almost every major ptach. The ith tier speculation is that it would've made programming too difficult.

LoL's UI doesn't handle multiple unit control very natively. Some heroes have had the ability to summon minions but the control is incredibly clunky. It used to be that you hold shift to control the minion which was about as fun as you'd expect.

Which is both hilarious and baffling because from what I can remember, their box art/promo material showed a hero that has the ability to summon something.

blizzard moba has no items so no

you may be thinking of STRIFE, from the creators of HoN

Strife was a really dumb decision from the maker of HoN to create a more casual game to attract the LoL crowd. It was pretty much dead on arrival, calling it another big moba is a stretch. That company sucked balls.
