Why is the bounty system punishing those who farm good?

Excuse me Riot what the fuck? I can be 0/4 but to give more gold on death than someone who is 4/0. Okay good no one wanted to comeback at the first place next time make everyone on the losing team lose 1k gold instantly upon hitting 10 min mark.

because players get upset when you try to farm up instead of teamfighting.

you don't even understand how many times I've been reporting for trolling for farming side lanes instead of grouping just to die again

It isn’t a punishment if you play safe and don’t give up free gold.

I don’t see it lasting all season for sure but with the new bounties on kills and power farming I can definitely see the player base playing safer. I’m going to at least.

Or some adcs just farm side lanes only to get picked off and be punished of their foolish positioning. Seems fine and fair to me especially the ones who are arrogant enough to decline to group at crucial moments. If the farming option is centered only around yourself, then that is just refusing to communicate with allies. This has happened way too often, and I'm glad it is now punishable to the max.

It would be fun to kill off that stray 0/4/0 Vayne. knowing it would have impact and benefit to the game.

My experience has been the complete opposite of yours. I came back from a lane loss by killing a snowballing zed.

It just doesn't. Why are you lying? Why is it fair to get gold off killing the 5/0 Zed but not the +100 CS Vayne?

For the same reasons it punishes those who get kills
