Bots are about to get a lot tougher in League of Legends. Riot Games announced the next Feature Game Mode, and it'll basically turn the bots we all love to pick on into giant death machines with "mind-melting abilities that'll blow you away."
"Thought Amumu was already emo enough? What if Amumu’s Doom Bot is so sad he makes all his nearby allies units CRY WITH DESPAIR, too? What if Ziggs’s Mega Inferno Bomb broke off into six MINI INFERNO BOMBS after landing, or if Lux’s Final Spark burst out in ALL directions around her?" Riot teased. According to the developer, each of the Doom Bots have had their abilities tinkered with, "and things most definitely get crazy when they get aggressive."
It sounds like Doom Bots will have multiple levels of difficulty as well. "Bots with 2 Bombs respawn with Bonus Doom effects such as Anivia’s passive or Swain’s ultimate, while 5 Bomb Doom Bots carry TWO Bonus Doom effects and provide the most extreme challenge in this brain-bursting Featured Game Mode!" Riot explained.
The Doom Bots of Doom will be available as a Featured Game Mode from July 17 to July 27. If you play against these juiced up bots at least once you'll unlock the Doomtastic summoner icon.
