How about adding old events as alternate game modes to custom games?

We used to have some great events in the past, all of which featured new objectives or alternate ways to play the game: Winter Solstice, Summer BBQ, Hallowed Blight (1st one), Moonrise, Howling Grounds, etc.

Many players, including me, desperately miss those events, despite the issues some of them posed for the general gameplay due to balancing issues. For the major part, they were great fun.

Considering that these events won't return to the game, but are still in the game code when it comes to gameplay rules, assets, sounds, vfx, etc. the devs should relatively easily be able to add them as alternate game modes to Custom Games.

Not only would this allow newer players to experience these great events, it would add much requested alternate game modes in a form to the game that wouldn't disrupt the main game mode with balance issues. In Custom Games, who cares if an event's mechanics have some flaws?

So, what do you think?

    I really wish you could customize the customs game more, all you can do it just restrict stuff (offering addons etc.) And change the map it's really boring and I'm starting to get sick of customs

    Custom match isn't really custom, this would make it custom.
