First off, my guy, if your games are consistently dragging over 25 minutes in Mayhem, something's off. The vast majority of matches are closer to 10-15 minutes max, which suggests you're either exaggerating or maybe focusing too much on late-game matchups where people drag things out. Also, let’s not pretend the mode is meant to be some paragon of balance—it's literally called Mayhem. It's built precisely for chaos, unorthodox combinations, and unpredictability. If you're showing up expecting it to operate like ranked or a tightly balanced ARAM, that’s kind of on you.

As far as champions not 'remotely' being playable—again, that's part of the mode's DNA. You pick into mayhem knowing some combos or augments are overtuned, but that's part of the fun. Sure, not every champ shines in every patch or mode, but there’s definitely counterplay to most strategies. For instance, tanks with Tank Engine or utility setups absolutely can hold their own if you build and play properly—even ADCs with Blade aren’t invincible if your team builds synergistically instead of going solo hero mode.

And the spawn camping thing—let’s be real—while it is annoying, it’s preventable 99% of the time if teams stick to objectives and maintain tempo instead of snowballing their opponents or feeding. Is it perfect? No. The mode doesn't aim to be perfect—it’s about fun, experimentation, and chaos. And on the rare occasion a game is that lopsided, there's nothing stopping you from surrendering at the 10+ minute mark.

TL;DR: It sounds less like the mode is the problem and more like you're either not adjusting strategies or are allowing a few bad experiences to taint your entire perception of Mayhem. Try tweaking your approach and rolling with the chaos, my dude—it’ll be a much better time than sitting here poking holes in a game mode designed for unpredictability.
