Riot to begin testing new LoL Quick Play game mode as replacement for Blind Pick

If you’ve been hunting for a casual way to enjoy some action on the Summoner’s Rift, Riot Games might be experimenting with a new game mode called Quick Play that should help League of Legends players get into the game a lot faster than ever before.

Quick Play will be replacing League‘s long-standing Blind Pick mode in specific regions in a limited-time test run and will allow players to choose their specific role and the champion combinations when queuing up for a match. As a result, they’ll be able to skip champion select entirely, and instead start loading up into a game immediately.
