Just wondering why turret plating and bounties on the score screen were not put into twisted treeline? I am assuming the minion changes were also not put in either?

The support item changes haven't hit Twisted Treeline yet, you can still build Face of the Mountain in it! item 3309

There are many reasons, but mainly because the identity of twisted treeline is supposed to be a fast-paced snowbally gamemode that ends quick, and so the turret plating system would be contradictory to that. It's also a chore to put it in when the playerbase in twisted treeline is much smaller, as well as because twisted treeline players didn't ask for stronger towers or faster minions (that's what I assume. If I'm wrong, don't quote me on that XD)

Either because riot forgot TT exists, or because they actively hold that changes back, or a mix of both.

In the past, most of such changes would automatically also go live on TT and totally fuck up that map as it is quite different from SR and the same changes can have a vastly different impact on it. Maybe riot learned from such issues in the past and considered that they need to asses the impact of such changes on TT befor applying them there, or, which i think is the case, they changed their system to automatically NOT impact TT rather than automatically also shipping on it and then proceeded to forget about TTs existence.
