Saw this linked in my friend's Skype Magma Chamber anyone else seen this? (In the Wiki it mentions smaller 1v1 or 2v2 fights...don't know how much I like that).

Magma Chamber was announced around this time last year and then more or less completely dropped off the radar. In fact it become something of a joke among players that it would never be released.

I read a Riot post a few months ago saying it was posponed indefinitely, so don't expect to see it anytime soon. :P

You know what they need to make a map?

The Proving grounds.


You know the level 1 tutorial, it's apparently a 2v2 map or a 1v1 map (You have another person on your team even though it's basically just you as Ashe vs Master Yi So idunno).

Oh that disappointing, I always look forward to these new maps and ideas. I love Dominion but a new map for 5v5 would be sick, just don't like the idea of focused 1v1 and 2v2 fights. I like the 5v5 fights (because it's a team game). But I understand how Riot needs to come up with fresh ideas to keep people entertained.

To be honest, Riot are...rather slow at coming up with new maps and ideas. The only new maps since 2009 (when LoL was released) have been Twisted Treeline and Crystal Scar and most players have more or less completely rejected them in favour of SR.

I would be VERY surprised if we hear about another map in less than a year from now, probably longer.

Maps are the thing the players want most, but yet most players cant even imagine how hard it is to make a new map for this game.

Absolutely but instead of so many new champs, increase the new champ release time span and focus some more on a new map.

There is a champion design team and a map design team afaik, so you caon't "focus some more on a new map". It's out when it's out.

And they already increased the release span for new champs by a week.
