Playing Dominion makes me worry about new champion releases and balance between the two maps. You can tell Riven was designed for Dominion with how the items fit her better and the emphasis on mobility/less on sustain. I know they think they can just balance things with items, but I don't see it.

Dominion is about as balanced as TT.

Well...since cs is irrelevant in Dominion, I don't mind Crystal Scar being called CS


If you play DotA/HoN/LoL CS is creep score, it's a genre-wide acronym. Even if it isn't applicable in the very specific context of Dominion giving it a different meaning in that context will only lead to confusion and terror.

Yep, last game we had a Lee Sin go 11-0 and we won 450-0. Other game the other team had Kat/Morde/Akali and they raped us every team fight; only lost by 20 because we kept backdooring and they wouldn't split up.

Played a half dozen games.

The balance is truly horrendous. Bruisers and Assassins completely dominate AD/AP carries and generally have no mana or mobility concerns. The pickups on the map are completely useless; a "health pack" heals from 100-200hp, when you've got 1.8-3khp. It has no meaningful effect on gameplay.

Additionally, the reward for capturing a point (100g) is insignificant and does not come close to matching the reward for people who simply zerg fights at nodes instead of attempting objectives.

I hugely disliked Dominion.

Vayne is pretty solid too, from what I've seen. Caitlyn not so much.

Yeah the health packs were completely disappointing. I expected them to be at least 30% heal. All they were is some mana restore for low-mana bruisers who only need 200ish mana to be effective.

Dominion makes balancing actually easyer. As long as a champ is viable in one of the modes then they dont have to buff him and they can concentrate on champs that are OP in at least one or UP in both modes.

I think that Riven is pretty good in standard Summoners Rift play as well, just she is rather weak in the early game.

I think she has a niche somewhere inbetween brawlers/assasins. She has some really good AoE burst with 3xQ and W.

Don't get me wrong, Riven is no Akali, but she is pretty strong I think. Ideally W could have a better stun (I think it is actually shorter than the animation...) but meh.

It's like TT in that way. Squishy carries need to play passively and get built, bruisers and assassins can do great damage with a few items and their base abilities. Therefore, in these short games, you get Carries stuck in that "good but still need more items" phase while assassins/bruisers just get to stomp all over the map.

It also looks way too fast paced for carries that need positioning to win. Cait, for example, needs to position right, trap the right areas, and play methodically, which this doesn't help with. We'll see after some tweaking.
It's your boy Guzma!
