Dominion is fun ;D Like I was hoping, it plays completely differently than Summoners Rift. You gotta build differently and employ different tactics, which is pretty neat. Games are quick as well, mine lasted 13min, granted we got stomped but it was still fun.
Trinity Force. Great on certain builds, just not with Rivan.
I realized it after looking at a solomid guide.
She's not really my cup of tea, at least not currently.

afkers are 10x worse than in rift
towers do jack shit
and mao is op in dominion
Yea I played this morning, it was open for about 2 hours. I had one match against a vayne, singed, ammumu, galio, and a rammus. Maybe it was just my team sucking/their comp but tanky dps seemed a little op in that mode.

Dominion.
Points > Killing
Defending > Chasing
What have we learned? It's not summoner's rift.
Played my first round. Lost by a ton but still love the gameplay. GJ Riot games.

You obviously haven't seen his true power in Rift. I've stomped kids with QQ Rocket poke build.
Also Dominion really is as good as people say. Rammus is the most annoying back-dooring character right now; Powerball + Sprint + Boost Pad = Across the map in 3 seconds. Stealthers too, but Riot knew that's how they were going to fit in anyways.

I mained Heimer when I started. One game I decided to screw around and get as much ap as possible. I built 4 archangels, sorceror's boots, and a deathcap and the damage was still pretty bad. He's good poking early game with missiles and good mid game when turrets hit lvl 5 but it's downhill from there.

Welcome to the world of early game champs mate! Garen is here to give you a welcome hug, provided we do it in a bush.
Okay, I am not a fan of LoL, but I would have started playing it again if they did Dominion better. Yes the games are twenty minutes long and faster paced, but I dont feel like they did the CP mechanic well enough. I was really hoping that Dominion might be some sort of Warpath like game, where teams are not splitting up as often and are working together to get the five cps. I like the tug of war kind of Capture points. If they add that into LoL, I may consider playing it again. I know this post will probably get deleted because it does not share the opinion of the other people in this thread, but I don't care. If you like Dominion, thats fine, I am ok with that, but in my honest opinion, there are better ways to do a capture point map.

I know what you mean. To be fair though, WP was a nightmare on a well defended last point. The circular nature of the map lends to breaking stalemates automatically, in which lies the beauty of the map design. You should just go a few rounds of Rammus with Ghost/MS Quints and hit boost pads everywhere while Powerball'd.
I like the whole splitting up aspect. Otherwise it would feel like constant non laning phase team fights in classic mode. In this mode you can really make a difference by getting smart and backdooring a turret while no one's around.
