Possibly Unpopular Opinion?

I'm not sure where the majority of the community is on this topic, but personally I would LOVE to have slightly longer games. While yes, there are crazy comebacks and I have seen many in the LCS and participated in many in game, I still feel like the game is so snowbally right now, especially with first turret gold.

I would really like to see just a few small changes to the game that 1) makes the game less snowbally and 2) makes the game SLIGHTLY longer.

This is only my first year playing league so I was never part of the longer game seasons. For those who were, why did Riot shorten games and what do you like more?
