    Hexakill - New Game Mode

    So Riot has announced Hexakill to be the next game mode.

    http://community.pbe.leagueoflegends...enabled-on-pbe

    I of course hopped on the PBE and played a few games and I have to say that I quite enjoyed it. The team fights that you get with an extra person on both sides are really great; it's chaotic everywhere. Both games both teams did 2 top, 1 mid, 2 bot and 1 jungler, though I suspect that 2 mid will also be fairly common. There was a lot of roaming going on as well, which was pretty cool because people just kinda went everywhere and it was a mess.

    Reset champs are a ton of fun because you ping pong everywhere and pick up a ton of kills, but there is also that one extra person to cc you. I haven't played enough games to really comment about how the extra person shapes the game flow, but it is fun.

    If anyone has PBE access what do you think of it?

    I'm looking forward to it, I wonder if going 2 support champs (with gold support items that is) will be popular; since that seems to be the most team gold. Hell, if you have a tanky/bruiser jungle, I wonder how viable it would be to run a support+adc top and bot, and then your AP carry in mid. I'm interested to see how the strategies pan out, although for that, I'm hoping it's available for more than a few weeks on live, since I did feel 1v1/2v2 disappeared a bit quickly.

    When I played with Isro we had someone offer to support top, but they just ended up going bot and we had Double Bruiser top lane. It seems to be the standard so far.

    Ya it was a mess of bruisers top lane. I kind of want to see what happens when you put 6 people mid for a fast push strat. I almost wonder if it would work.

    If it can work with 5v5 then I think 6v6 would be even faster!

    The basic idea is j4 goes in with ori ball, gets ppl in the cataclysm, then mf, wukong, sona and rumble use their ults.

    Imo you have to go with the full reset comp.

    Akali, Katarina, Kha'zix, Tristana and I forgot who else has resets, but you have to put em on the team and see what happens.

    Going to have to build muramana darius so you have enough mana to get the hexadunk. But yes that is one more to add onto the reset team.

    This game type just seems silly to me.

    What if you change Rumble with Yasou, the enemy team will die in 1 second.

    Morgana over Sona IMO

    Ori Ball -> J4 ult -> Tormented Soil+Soul Shackles -> MF ult -> Yasou ult

    Not only would they take a lot more damage, but they would be stunned if any of them miraculously survived the J4 ult - and Black Shield on the initiate would make J4 un CC-able so the initial combo would be nearly impossible to stop (apart from scattering in every direction).

    I agree. However in a recent video by gbay he mentions that the developers had originally intended the game to be a 6v6.
