Should the assist system change?

JohnnyNeverSins··2 votes·341 views

When you deal someones 3/4 health and you die,and just because the person who killed you gets killed after 20 seconds DOES NOT MEAN that you shouldnt get the assist, the person has a total of 2000 hp and you deal 1500,he is left with 500,lets say that with a bit of health regen he gets to 700,and then a rengar of your team jumps on him and oneshots him with his ult, That oneshot was because of you,he wouldnt be able to do that if it wasnt for you, you deserve that assist,and i dont care if 20 secs past,it was all because of me

Not really. Given the fact that you can toss a shield on someone who's TPing across the map and get an assist for it, increasing the recognition timer on it wouldn't work out very well.

Also, if you got killed and it took 20 or more seconds for someone to follow up, you had very little to do with the kill after that point. Someone else had to clean up your mess. This is akin to asking for a Participation Trophy just because you dealt damage to someone who whooped you.

Lets not even mention the gold involved.
