Defensive Buff From Dragon or Baron? or Maybe Buff Defensive Items
Because most of the buffs from jungle monsters (including dragon and baron) are offensive and add more damage stats to players, Tank's health drops pretty fast in the team fight so that Tank can't really tank in the team fight. Tanky jungle and tanky top become weak in most of the game I experienced(gold 1 rank). Assassin top and jungle are really over powered in this game. I really hope riot could make some changes on this either on buff defensive items or give some sort of defense buff from dragon or baron( like increase armor and MR on dragon buff)
For the baron buff, if you don't have a group of minions pushing to enemy turret, that minion buff is really useless. Especially, when your team is 5k-8k gold behind while enemies push their lanes to your inhibitor turret, one baron steal doesn't change anything. Your team still doesn't have the capability to fight back or win the game. However, the 5th dragon buff seems so much better than baron buff now. Even you down like 7k gold, 5th dragon buff can give you the capability to ace enemy team and win.
my personal view is to make baron buff to buff all of your minions and doesn't have to be near a champions with baron buff. Minion with baron buff will have some stats increase but still weaker than super minions. Additionally, with increase AP and AD for baron buff, maybe give some AP and AD penetration to players as well.
For the dragon buff I suggest: 1st buff increase damage to minions and jungle monsters and movement speed (trade off between early game farming and ganking) 2nd buff increase health and mana and energy regain 3rd buff increase AD and AP ( old 1st buff) 4th buff increase 25% armor and MR 5th buff true damage to champions plus additional damage to constructions for 3 mins
this just some of my opinions, I really hope Riot can see this and think about it over all I love this game and just want to make this game better and more fun.
