And people complain. Baron Banner Cannon Minions is exactly what a team needs to function without an ADC, and people complain. Guys, this is what you have been asking for for a long time. Why are you complaining? Instead of an ADC, you can take someone to help peel for the cannon, empower the cannon, or secure Baron easily. Why do some of you think this is bad?
FOR JUSTICE5 votesBaron-promoted cannon is the newest champ they released.
Not the champ we deserve, but the champ we need.
Guojonjaich2 votesUmmm. What.
It's strong when you get baron because the turret isn't in range to hit it. Are you suggesting you can run a teamcomp around not getting a turret until 20 minutes when baron spawns, and taking a high risk play of trying to secure a 20 minute baron. Or waiting longer. All of this without having sustained damage from the safety of range.
I'm confused.
Meep Man3 votesIm saying people are being dumb when they complain about it given it's weaknesses. I'm not saying go and make a comp that doesn't have an ADC or similar champion, I'm saying this is what people have been asking for for a while.
Guojonjaich3 votesYeah banner doesn't weaken adc's or their role at all. All it does in my opinion is give another buff to tanks who already get free damage cuz of high base damages, and now you buy this and can take turrets while being a giant meatball standing in front protecting it.
It is more of a buff to tanks than a nerf to adc/reliance on adcs.
FOR JUSTICE2 votesHes saying you dont only have to depend on the adc/
for objectives.
Since this lets tanks split lots better, the adc can continue to greed for 90% of the teams gold, but without consequences.
Sairek Ceareste2 votesThe problem I have with a baron-empowered promoted cannon minion is that it discourages interaction with the enemy at all.
A team shouldn't be able to just sit back and roll into the base by taking a Baron and standing safely back next to the minion without even having to engage the enemy team that's defending the turret. That's not healthy design for League and it just encourages the whole snowball meta more.
Slythion1 votesIt's function is ok, it's execution is awful. It promotes not interacting with the enemy team which isn't fun at all
BALDG1VEN BOOMER1 votesBecause a 700 range minion that is immune to magic damage while sieging turrets in 6 hits wasn’t what we’re talking about.
