1 year ago The pressure for vast changes to the map/gameplay itself from the community has been huge. Thus I get why they implemented those changes. But getting rid of Captains Mode as a playmode for 5 stacks (totally understandable that not many want to play it in Solo Queue and therefor the total amount of games is low) really sucks.
We used to queue a lot of Captains Mode as a 5 stack. Queue times have been between 3 and 10 minutes. And we loved doing so.
How should you learn drafting if not in Captains Mode? I drafted several hundreds of games and am still learning something new every other draft. Captains Mode is a great way for motivated 5 stacks to train a bit for a battle cup. Like this you only have one chance to try things and if they go south you have to wait an entire week to play the next game of Captains Mode. And Captains Mode provides you a lot of things, All pick does not provide you like: No randomly picked meta heroes, the chance of absolute last pick and the chance to secure picks with bans afterwards.
It's simply fun and does not cost you anything. So please bring ist back.
Sincerely, a heartbroken Captains Mode enjoyer.
