Dominion First Look part 1

Dominion is in closed beta it is a finished map type so not sure why it is called a beta why not just early access. Also it is not closed beta it is restricted timed beta as you can only play when riot says you can play it at least it is open for all to play though so why don’t they just release. I am going to answer these questions and a few others plus I will go on to some of the Meta game currently going through the minds of the public.

Recently I talked to a riot employee on the server side of the game league of legends this is what he had to say (disclaimer I am not a journalist and this was not a recorded interview so a lot of what I am about to say is paraphrased and should not be used as facts). I know that a lot of us Aussie gamers like the game league of legends and its fast gameplay and something we all want to know when are we going to split from US servers and get pings under 150. We cannot split the US server at this point in time as it cost a lot of time and resources which we do not have but it is something we are greatly interested in doing in the future as we are a big population of the gaming industry. I next asked him why dominion is not out yet; Dominion is not out because it would put too much strain on the server and the queue times would just grow exponentially throughout the day and would eventually maybe even crash the server with all the people wanting to play it. This was proven as on peak time when dominion was up for four to six hours the queue times rose to 15 to 25 minutes so if they let it go all day I can only imagine it would keep going up and up. In the end it all comes down to their number one issue SERVER STABLITY which stops them from releasing dominion and from attempting to spend time and energy on a split on an already unstable servers so remember most reasons for not releasing stuff will probably be because of server stability.

For the rest of this week and next week I plan on releasing small updates all based on dominion strategies Meta game and who are strong and who are weak on this field of justice till next slice of Kris.
