Why is a system in place that discourages carrying? If I'm 6/0 and die one time depending who its to can just end the game right there. A single kill should never be worth close to 1k gold, and I see literally no reason why this is in the game. It doesn't stop snowball or anything like that, in fact it just snowballs the shit out of the enemy team if your teams carry misclicks once and dies,
Wouldnt that be the same as for the enemy team?
It's to give the enemy team some chances to do a potential comeback, instead of just being pummeled into the ground with no power to fight back because the enemy team gets a lead.
It doesn't discourage carrying, it just discourages mindless carrying in which you go 1v5 for no reason or if you over-extend like no tomorrow just because you're ahead.
Blame the people who want snowballing; they're denying recovery hard, so killing them should be a huge boon.
There has to be a reward for shutting down a high-priority target.
If bounties aren't the answer, I'd like to hear your suggestion.
