When your all-stars take the stage in Shanghai, China, you’ll see them face off mano-a-mano (and two-on-two, in the case of bot laners) for the right to claim they’re the best top, mid, bot or jungle players in the world. You’ll also get a look at the upcoming Magma Chamber map, which is specially designed for individual and pair competition.
Why preview Magma Chamber at All-Star Week?
Watching the best players in the world duel it out for honor and glory is pretty damn exciting. If you were following the all-star race, you probably caught the epic showdown between Wickd and Soaz. Matchups like that are really fun to watch, so we wanted to make sure we had a proper battlefield for individual grudge matches. Since it’s only natural to wonder who the best player in each role is, we thought All-Star Week was the perfect venue to give you a sneak peek at the map, and let the pros settle the score while we were at it.
How does a head-to-head match work?
One vs. one competition actually has a pretty long history in the League of Legends community. The first one on one tournament actually took place in beta, and we’ve seen many more battles of this nature since. We tried to stick close to the existing one vs. one conventions.
During All-Star week, players will win a match on Magma Chamber in any the following ways:
- Kill 100 minions
- Destroy the enemy turret
- Score first blood in 1v1, or score 2 team kills in 2v2
When can we play?
While you can watch the all-stars treat their favorite champions to a magma tan today, remember this is a sneak peek and the public release is still on the horizon. We’re targeting before the launch of Season 4 while we tackle the following:
- Tech challenges: A one vs. one map is unlike any game mode we’ve ever launched, and releasing it to millions is a lot different than letting the all-stars play on tournament realm. Before launch we need to load-test the servers and make sure we have the right supporting hardware in place.
- More testing and optimizing: So far, Magma Chamber’s only optimized for tournament hardware, so there’s a lot of polish and bug sweeping left to finish. Before we can launch, the map needs to run smoothly on our full range of hardware, from the humblest min-spec to the most impressive gaming rig.
- Game balance: Getting a map ready for live requires a lot of iteration on the design side. Right now we know it’s fun to watch the best players in the world throw down one vs. one, but we need more testing (including a full tour on the PBE) to make sure it’s balanced and fun to play!
We know Season 4 seems like it’s a long way off, but we’re using that time to get Magma Chamber shipshape and ready for launch. Stay tuned for more as we get closer to the new season.
It isn't the original magma chamber though.
ReplyDeleteIf I remember correctly it was planned to be a 6v6 map larger than Summoner's Rift.
Wow, this post is fastidious, my younger sister is analyzing these
ReplyDeletethings, therefore I am going to tell her.

You're right, I believe they said the original magma chamber actually evolved into Dominion.

Which SUX imo its cool but if you asked the community opinion they would prefer Magma than Dominion...even ARAM has way more success
ReplyDeleteYou are right and if you look at old articles we are reaaaaaaally far from that!

ReplyDeleteI've been browsing online more than 4 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours. It is pretty worth enough for me. In my opinion, if all website owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the net will be much more useful than ever before.
ReplyDeleteLook into my weblog: lovesacs
This will impede the application associated with long run.
ReplyDeleteIf you still sell 4 or more the particular next
time increase the price again.

There is a new community getting created for 1v1 tournaments on the Magma Chambers map. They have been hosting successful tournaments for months now, testing their system and preparing everything for launch. They give away Razer Prizes to the first place winner in the tournaments and Riot Points or Paypal money to the chatroom.
ReplyDeleteFrom the look of it, it seems legit. The founder is a streamer on twitch called cdxsc2 and his website for the tournaments is cdxstream [dot] com
You even even signup at http://cdxstream.com/signup
