AP Carries AP Ratio autos against towers

Can we remove this? I have no idea why this implemented when marksmen are supposedly the tower taking role. I'd rather mages get a defined role and buffed accordingly, because towers are melting way too fast.

LoL, why?

The only way to win (outside of surrenders/5-man dissocnnects) is by blowing up your opponent's Nexus. The only way the Nexus is vulnerable is if you kill the towers and inhibitors guarding it.

Marksman being the most adept archetype at doing both those things is arguably the biggest reason every team comp is pretty much required to run with a marksman.

Bigger issue than mage auto-attacks applying 40% of their AP to vs. building damage is mage AAs are the only thing they can use to take down structures. AD champions applying 100% of their total AD to structures is really one of the biggest advantages they have over AP.

Which is really awkward when you consider how effective Ziggs vs. Ashe should be at blowing stuff up in a real-world sense.
