In what has become a semi-regular fanfare in the wider League fandom since Twisted Treeline\u2019s season nine removal, players across social media have declared the three-vs-three mode \u201cneeds to come back\u201d\u2014especially now that more and more of the community is walking away from ranked play and instead looking for more casual playlists to spend their League gaming time. Much of the July 4 discussion was soaked in nostalgia, with some players declaring \u201cthe memories made there were iconic\u201d while others reminisced about they would always warm up for solo queue with quick three-vs-three lobbies. Some even warned the developers they may quit the game entirely if they have to keep playing Rift matches. There were some that spoke out against the idea though, with many pointing to Riot\u2019s original reason for scrapping the mode: Not enough League players were actually loading onto Twisted Treeline. While the MOBA\u2019s modes team never actuallly shared how bad playing numbers got towards the very end, the consensus was less than a few thousand gamers were ever really in the queue at any one time. I certainly remember some fairly hefty queue times whenever I tried to play in 2019. The answer, hopeful League players said, is a modern Twisted Treeline update. Suggestions included simply \u201cclosing off the top half of the map\u201d on Summoner\u2019s Rift, while others demanded Riot give Treeline as much love as League Arena. It\u2019s a great idea, especially considering how well Arena has gone in its several reruns and League\u2019s new Swarm mode suggests Riot is very willing to try new (and old) things in its flagship title. However, the final question would be how much time it would actually take\u2060\u2014something Riot has yet to address. And, regarding Treeline\u2019s infamous funnel metagame, the devs would have to put some serious work into mode-specific balance if it ever returned. For now, we\u2019ll have to give Swarm a try when it arrives on July 17.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/lol-players-agree-twisted-treeline-must-come-back-to-league-of-legends-with-modern-update-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1279761"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2076"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1279761"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1279761\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1279766,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1279761\/revisions\/1279766"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1279765"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1279761"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1279761"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1279761"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1279761"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1279761"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1279761"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1279761"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
