Hey guys, I think it would be helpful to have turret indicator in the normal games and even rank games, first of all it does not effect the balance of the game, second it would really help the players who want to make plays under the enemy towers, especially for the new player!
Riot please! thank you;)
Lumus Avatar2 votesThis is highly unlikely to occur as Riot has previously explained that the reason the turret range indicator is disabled in normal and ranked play is that it would turn the games into a pointless exercise in 'who can toe the line better.'
Removing the indicator puts the burden of skill (and memory) on the player. There is no hard line to look for, you have to do it by memory or feel and mistakenly attacking an enemy champ while inside that range is your own fault.
Basically, if the line were there, it'd be too easy for aggressor to zone defenders with no risk to themselves. Without the line, the aggressor has to actually pay attention and carefully position himself and make sure an AA command does not mistakenly drag his champ within aggro range.
Simply, it forces players to be more aware of themselves and their position or risk taking a turret shot.
Eedat1 votesI disagree. Dumbing down the game is not a good change. The indicators exist in Co-op vs AI and custom games to aid new players already. You should be able to judge the distance by yourself and maneuver appropriately.
SmknWdl1 votesIt's actually pretty easy to figure out where the line is... I mean there are some vague spots but generally it's pretty clear if you have a good eye for detail...
Supp Hero1 votesA third option could be remove the Turret Indicator from Co Op vs AI, but still show it momentarily when the turret starts targetting you (same way the red line shows). That way it's still 'invisible' but helps players learn where it's at in Co op vs AI.
Also remove the indicator entirely from Intermediate Co Op vs AI.
I played Co op vs AI for a long time before Normals, and having the indicator show in AI but not in Normals caught me off guard. I think it should either be removed entirely or only shown in Beginner/Tutorial AI.
Where the line actually is and where your hero has to be to be targetted are different, and learning without seeing the indicator gives you a better feel for where it will hit you. The indicator shown in Co Op vs AI lies a lot.
