I think towers should be stronger the closer you are to Nexus

Tier 2 and 3 do more damage than Tier 1.

Nexus towers don't do more damage since there are two of them attacking at a time, but should have like 3 times the resistances of other tiers.

This way if someone gets fed and pushes towers too early in the game, diving an underfed opponent at tier 2 and 3 can become a lot more dangerous(you don't have the damage/tankiness yet).

Also why are Nexus towers made out of paper? The last line of defence is honestly just not there. Try to defend them against a Baron push, it's just so hard.

Because for some reason Riot think that if a team is ahead, they should be able to finish quickly instead of endlessly sieging the team that is already behind and is locked in their base, losing access to jungle and drake/nashor. I don't really agree with this, but that's the reason. If you lost a fight near your base, you lost the game.

Because in the earlygame turrets are there to protect you. In the mid and lategame you're there to protect the turrets. Also tier 2 and 3 towers already deal more damage than outer towers. Their base AD is higher by 20-30 which results in up to 70ish more damage per shot once they're fully ramped up.

I think Riot just wants to make games end more quickly in this way.

This.^

You can't throw the best offense and defense in first turrets which are already garbage toilet paper post 14 minute that give gold pre 14 minutes.

Buff ressistances to inner turrets as well.

IF you think logic speaking, Yes.

If you think Riot speaking... no, they do not have logic.

also destroy each tower should add some kind of new gameplay, the second and third ones are just.. towers

I agree. In every game, eventually the towers stop being fortifications, and they all turn into a giant sack of gold, sitting on top of a skinny cactus that you can just kick over.

Im not even sure why they are skinned as magical towers tbh. A magically shrinking speed bump would be more fitting.

I support this idea

Exactly. The 2nd turret is a fcking joke it can fall in 1 push

They lose against a wave with 2 super minions. It's kinda sad tbh.

I say the best idea is to equal out the damage of all turrets, and give the turrets more health based on how close it is to the nexus.

Another crazy idea I thought of was to lower the resistances of the tier 1 turret before five minutes. It feels weird when you auto the turret and only 10 damage pops out.

That would just increase game time and make wave clear and poke champions reign supreme, oh also healing supports.

That is really bad because currently early game champions are useless,only scaling champions can make it into the game and maybe late game.Thats the reason why fiora got a buff,even if she gets ahead and wins lane which she is supposed to do she cant end the game because already by minute 15 late game champions start destroying everyone.if anything they should up the damage you deal to towers without minions,rest is fine.
