Minions and Towers - How to update them?

Blumpkin Nation··1 votes·174 views

I had a thought regarding the minions as well as the towers. These are just my opinions or thoughts as I do not claim to know ANYTHING about balance or gameplay.

Minions:

I really feel like the standard 6-7 bunch of minions that appear are really... boring now. We've seen this same development forever. I was thinking it would be interesting to add several more minions that walk down the lane in groups instead of in lines. Of course I feel the lanes themselves would have to be bigger to allow plays since the group of minions are larger.

Otherwise, do you guys remember how we could upgrade minions in different ways when Gangplank's mode was on SR? I feel that would add another depth to gameplay on Summoner's Rift and wouldn't disturb too much of the general gameplay.

Whatever they decide to change, I wish Riot would add more than just a few gameplay changes to SR other than the jungle monster or objectives. Every part of league should feel dynamic so that every person feels like they are contributing. Oh, we're down 10 kills? But we had people invest in push minions so we can try to take objectives easier or get towers if can't always engage the enemy team? Great!

As for towers themselves:

They are really just a shitty version of a Rook in chess. They're a tower that doesn't really do anything but take up space. I feel like Riot could enhance the playstyle of Towers. Do you know how the Jungler needs smite to secure jungle objectives or jungle easier? Why not create a summoner spell that allows you to interact with a Tower in different ways.

I'm not sure how it could work but imagine having a summoner spell (Engineer) Or something that lets you change the way a turret behaves or can use individual wards within it's range. Imagine increasing the effective range or attack speed of a turret? That way you can justify why a turret is shit because you can upgrade it or change its dynamic.

With more minions on the map, you could even add a splash damage to towers.

TL;DR (good ideas in here though): I really wish League would create a more dynamic experience on SR other than enemy champion interaction.

Hey guys, just looking for some feedback! I know my opinion will be generalized as low due to my no-rank or low rank. but that's okay.

bring back blackmarket brawlers as a new core mechanic of the game.

gate the brawlers and their upgrades by game time to not create additional snowballing. this is what they could have done in preseason instead of almost every other change they did.

I wish they would incorporate BMB into the game as an additional way to make the game more interesting. The game is pretty stay as it stands.
