Make Towers great again!

What if Towers were actual defence bastions? Something like:

Can bodyblock skillshots and autoattacks (both allied and enemy, the same way Yasuo's WindWall can for enemies)
Have a (very small) Poppy's W-like area (meaning they can't be jumped over or dashed through, by anyone)
Their damage scales with range (the closer you are to an enemy tower, the more damage you take)
And make Teemo pay for it!

This way you could actually hide behind your Tower for increased protection, at the cost of not being able to harm your enemy. This would increase the outplay potential that the defender has on the diver.

Oh so you want 50 Min games as a standart back again or what?

idk. I forgot how long a game needs to last, before the IP bonus is maxed out. I know 26 min games you get extra IP, but I don't know when that caps out.

I think so. Weirdos don't even remember what those games were like.

I second this idea. It would make for great counter plays and make champs like Zac have to think if it is worth the dive.

Towers are in need of a serious buff since ages so yes, we can make taowers great again. And maybe give em some %life true damage while reworking em

Or increase fire rate on the further back turrets to the speed of Twisted Treeline's turret.

If anything (altho I think this is the wrong way to buff towers) allies should not be punnished by there own towers. I should be able to hop my tower and cast spells throught my tower.

They should honestly bring back to how they were in Season 5. Sure the games lasted a while, but I would rather have that over games that are decided in 10 mins

In the past towers were shit dude your quote makes no senese xd Season 2, two men could shred tower without minions. They are in good standing, who wants to spend 10, 20 or even 30 extra minutes for 1 match.

so that when u are pushed under ur tower to cs u actually need to stay in front of the tower and have a Caitlyn destroy you with autoattack from off tower range hmm not sure if i am a fan of this idea.
