Shield Minions

If you play top at all and actually play melee laners, you probably know the pain of laning against an unstoppable ranged lane bully. Some people may say "well just play safe." And what? Be down 50 CS? The game is meant to promote skill and the better player should have the advantage, not being thrust into 0 counterplay matches where its entirely reliant on teammates winning. Riot has been recently promoting solo skill, but in these situations, there is almost no way to dominate lane, if you can even survive. Let's not even get started about how mages top can get items for cheaper prices while freely farming and denying cs just by existing. What if Riot introduced minions that have shields in top lane. These minions can block ranged projectiles and prevent unwinnable matchups. Although this may put certain laners like Pantheon out of favor, it would promote much healthier matchups in top lane, not just the either feed or afk under tower style of gameplay.
