Has Riot considered an actual 1v1 game mode?

It would be nice if there was a dedicated 1v1 game mode with a rank ladder as well. The logistics of the game would need to be reworked in some aspects compared to traditional 5v5 and Aram, like item costs and gold earned, but I imagine it would be possible...

They're thought about, they almost implemented and actually let pros play a version at All Stars each year, but for some reason don't make it an actually mode.

They released it for the public and called it snowdown showdown. After a week the playrate dropped to >1%

Even tho it will be unfair as fuck. I feel like it would still be a good way to practice without the hassle of a team demotivating you.

Especially bully laning phases.

It wouldn't work, the way this game is designed.

What you should be asking for is a fighting game with the characters. lol

They released it for the 2014 Snowdon event but I guess Noone played it after a while, that's most of the time the reason riot doesn't release something or bring something back, just low playercounts

They think it's an rgm, at best. Will never be ranked because League is a team game.

I would love for them to add a 1v1 PERMANENT game mode that's ranked. The first player to 5 or 3 kills wins going up the ladder. It would be so fun. It's like ARAM but 1v1 but in the middle of the arena its made like a circle!

Nah, and I think it’s right, a 1v1 game where the one who win is the one with the most broken champion? No tx
