So why was Dominion removed in the first place, and will it ever return to the League of Legends client? Dominion was played on the Crystal Scar, a circular map with five different capture points. The game mode was five versus five just like any other League of Legends mode, and the objective was to take down the enemy Nexus. Instead, players had to capture the different points around the map and defend them. Controlling the points dealt damage to the enemy Nexus, meaning that the team who controlled most points for the longest time would eventually win.
This type of game mode gave players a completely new way to play League of Legends and introduced people to a fast-paced style that had never been seen before. Even though Riot originally intended to have Dominion as a permanent game mode, this changed as League of Legends as a whole developed over time.
The new mode and its single map, The Crystal Scar, would play out faster, with heroes starting at level 3 and gaining gold at increased rates. It would focus on capturing and holding control points rather than the traditional League of Legends gameplay of trying to take down towers along lanes.
Now, after years of being featured as a mode, Dominion is nearly empty and Riot is giving up on supporting it. In a post on the official League of Legends website , Riot announced that it will permanently retire Dominion and the Crystal Scar map beginning on Monday, Feb.
According to the post, less than 0. The developer says it's also focused all its attention regarding balancing champions for the traditional Summoner's Rift map, which has led to problems with imbalance, bugs and general poor player experience for anyone trying to play Dominion.
To honor those who stuck with Dominion, Riot will be granting a unique summoner icon to any account with over wins against real players in the mode prior to Feb. In the future, the company plans to keep unique modes to timed events rather than full-time additions to the game. Short stories Video lore Books Alternate Universe.
