As someone who hit exalted with Arathi Basin on two characters, I'm not going anywhere near this thing. But I'm sure a lot of people will have fun with it. I just hope that Riot continues to focus on Summoner's Rift because I got into this game for the DotA-like experience and not to relive WoW's battlegrounds.

I'm not too worried about this turning into AB. Many of AB's most endearing issues are the result of having 3x as many players as nodes, as well as the nearby graveyards. With only one player per node it'll be a very different experience.

I have to agree with this.

Because of the balance, I don't think it'll feel very much like AB.

As someone who grinded warlord on Illidan during a christmas holiday mostly in AB, I got exalted with every BG easily but I played about 5 times more in AB than the other 2, i'll be trying it out at least.

Well for me it's not really about whether they can balance it or make it fun (I have faith in them to do both). It's more just preferring the MOBA style over the capture/defend style of AB. As long as they don't balance the champs around Dominion (and I doubt they will given the new items/buffs/etc) then I have no problem with it. I'll give it a shot though

Although I do think it was weird to see so much hype over an announcement... a lot of people probably expected something to be implemented today.

Edit: ^ You grinded up to Warlord? Much respect, I only got up to Lt. General.

Given how poorly Riot balances one game mode, I'm inclined to think they'll do an even worse job with two.

I'd much rather see replays and observing than any new map or champion at this point along with half the other promises that have been made in the last year, but I suppose that doesn't make riot money.

I'll wait to see how it turns out, but I don't see an attack and defend style game working for AoS games. Especially when the game is already balanced around a completely different style. If it doesn't turn into another Twisted Treeline I'll be impressed.

I dunno I'm pretty happy about this mode. Constant small skirmishes without having to lane for 10-15 uninteresting minutes? I'm in.

I'm not really worried about balance unless their are enough heroes which make the map shitty. Just seems like something fun to do on the side with buds. Treeline was pretty fun while it lasted and was still interesting to play once in awhile to fuck around on when solo ranked woes take over.

AB allways was the best thing ever happened to WoW. The whole map design of it was just genius.

Iam really looking forward to play it in LoL and I dont care if other champs are "imbalanced" there.

they better not screw up SR balance because of this gimmicky gamemode for ADD WoW arena kids.


Well, maybe it gets scrapped like magma chamber and the announced "us server free" eu west.

The great part about playing AB was playing an elemental shammy defending lumber mill

Yeah so apparently most of the engineering and design for this was done by Brackhar as was listed here: http://na.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?p=12427887#post12427887

It should be awesome

If it is ANYTHING like AB, anything at all, Tanky DPS/Healing/Shielding will be beyond overpowered; it's completely unavoidable when the goal is to channel a flag for 30 seconds without being harmed, a tank with a pocket healer can harm you FOREVER if he is skilled at protecting said healer.

It sounds like a balancing nightmare, but I am interested to actually see a picture of the map and not a dozen ground level screenies, and the new items/summoners/etc. Could end up being really fun; at least LoL doesn't have a feral druid(Nidalee pretty close though).

You probably won't be able to pull that off. Devoting 2 people to defending one cap means it's 3v4 elsewhere.
