So it would be just a regular 5v5 game.

The only difference is that you would be only allowed to buy 1 item the entire game. So you would really have to rely on your runes, masteries, item choice, and champion choice to win the game.

Potential Variations
1. Classic
Only 1 item is to be bought for the duration of the game.

2. Kill Game Variation
You are allowed 1 item at the start of the game. For every kill you get (not assists) you can use an additional item slot. So if you have no kills you're stuck at 1 item. If you have 4 kills you can get 5 items.

3. LVL 18 Variation
You are allowed 1 item at the start of the game. Upon reaching LVL 18, you are allowed to use all of your item slots.

4. Ulti Variation
You are allowed 1 item at the start of the game. For every level on your ultimate ability, you are allowed to use another item slot.

5. Farming Variation
You are allowed 1 item at the start of the game. For every 100 cs you have you are allowed to use another item slot. For example, at 100 cs (farm) you can use 2 item slots. At 234 cs, you can use 3.

Just an idea right now, thoughts?

Idea!

Start at the game being level 18.

Can only buy 1 item. No minions. No turrets. Just champions and brushes.

Fountain Turrets kills hostile champions with 1 hit. Summoner Platform rapidly heals allied champions for 30% of their max health per second.

After First Blood, a wave of minions (from Blue and Purple) marches to the center of the map, coming from left and right paths where there are no brushes.

After the waves of minions dies, there will be no upcoming wave until a champion dies again. First team to ACE another enemy team wins the game.

X amount of champions are alive inside the Summoner Platform = 1 gets knocked out of it randomly.
