The Howling Abyss map is amazing, as the whole visual effects isn't the only thing it's adding.

It's adding ARAM to the PVP selection screen, so that now it isn't just a custom match that gives you little to no ip and gives you a win, along with xp.

For people/alts below level 30 and people that need money, this can really boost you up in your conditions, as the map looks great and it gives you stuff instead of just being a match that is "just-for-fun".

Considering that it's being added to PVP, this will probably lead to having ranked games in it. The new map is better than 3v3 IMO because you can have a full team, and it opens a lot of opportunities.

Riot is not being lazy, Zac is a great character. What would you expect from a slimey morphing blob? high level graphics? Ho, please. The game is great and it doesn't need a new gamemode. Even though that would be nice, it isn't required, not including the fact that they just nerfed/buffed a whole boatload of characters/items.

They're working hard on system issues at the moment, so new graphics isn't worth their time right now. And if you haven't seen the new Karma update, I recommend that you do (as a somewhat frequent karma player myself). Riot is doing fine, and you should not complain.
