《League of Legends》After the 14.14 version was launched this week, a new PVE mode "Endless Frenzy" was launched on the global official server. As soon as the new mode was launched, it received high praise from foreign players.

The mode is a mowing survival PVE game for up to 4 players, inspired by the independent game "Vampire Survivor", but with elements of "League of Legends" and the Phantom Squad skin. The last time "League of Legends" launched a similar PVE mode was during the "Odyssey" event in 2018. According to the latest news revealed by the mode team, when they completed the reorganization in 2022, they were working on the development of the Arena and Endless Frenzy modes, and the designers spent a lot of time on this mode.

Although Endless Tide has only been online for 4 days, players have already praised it. "The new game mode is simply amazing, Riot has done a great job this time," a player posted on the Reddit forum, saying that Endless Tide is a bold creation that subverts the traditional gameplay of "League of Legends", but players can also feel the combat charm of this classic IP from the hero skills and boss monsters.

Other players fully agree with this view, praising the developers for creating a sophisticated and "gorgeous" mode. Although some players did not have much criticism for this limited-time game, they hope to add more ways to play. Riot Games has been committed to maintaining matching and ranking modes for many years, and now they realize that players need more leisurely and entertaining gameplay, so inTeamfight TacticsAfter the mode became popular, many new modes were created for players to try. Even many LCS professional players came to try it. Rookie recently played until 7 a.m.

Of course, the players are not just praising Endless Tide without thinking. They have raised some opinions about Endless Tide. The most popular one is "please add more heroes". There are only nine optional characters in the game, only two by default, and the remaining seven need to be unlocked through game progress. But for those players who have been playing for a few days, they quickly used all heroes and completed various levels of difficulty. These players hope that the developers can add more heroes and props to improve the replayability of this mode.

Another shortcoming seems to be the lack of support for handles or game controllers in Endless Rush, because instead of the traditional arrow keys and QWER keys, this mode has become WASD keys, which theoretically makes it more comfortable to play with a handle. One player said, "I like this kind of game, and the Endless Rush mode is also very interesting, but it lacks handle support. This kind of game uses two joysticks and two triggers to operate, which is much better than using WASD and ER keys on the keyboard. I really hope they can add this feature."

Riot Games has yet to offer controller support in League of Legends or any of its other modes, so this could be a challenge for the developer, but they have recently tested the console versions of Valorant and 2XKO, both of which support controller operation, which means that Riot Games has the technology to do this. Although the developers of League of Legends have stated that Endless Frenzy is a limited-time mode, depending on its popularity and how many players continue to play the game, Riot may consider making it a permanent mode.

Riot has done something similar with the Arena mode, and they are currently working to update and optimize the 2v2 battle mode so that players can continue to experience it. League of Legends has always been famous for its iconic 5v5 mode, the core gameplay of which is to pit five players against five opponents of the same skill level, adding unique heroes, skills, and mechanisms to make it a classic competitive game. This is also the most competitive and popular mode of League of Legends, and professional competitions only use this mode. However, this was not the case in the early days of League of Legends.

In the early versions, Riot Games launched multiple maps, including the 3v3 mode in Twisted Jungle and the Domination Battleground mode. The developers also tried various entertainment modes, including some PVE activity modes and the popular "Teamfight Tactics". Riot's latest experimental result is the 2v2 arena mode, which has been widely praised in the past year and is expected to become a permanent mode. Players who like PvE are looking forward to the new mode of Endless Frenzy, and highly appreciate this new way of playing "League of Legends", hoping that the official can continue to update it.
