Can we please add this feature to the new HUD?

Riot, can you please add the gold total for both teams to the new HUD? I feel like this would reduce the amount of surrenders and keep team morale up. . Its like the LCS games, we can see how much gold both team have. So your team can see that even though the kill total is 15-28, the gold total is 11k to the enemy's 13k. People base surrenders or " gg's " too much off of the amount of kills you have to the amount of kills the enemy has. They don't realize that you might acctually be winning in gold if the enemy team only has 2 turrets down while your top and bot pushed all the way to inhbitor turrets. Rito pls <3

Nope.

There's no need for you to really know this. Look at the "tab" page (scoreboard) and look at items. That will give you a good enough idea of where the gold is at.

Ok Mr. Math. The enemy tristana has item 3072 item 3046 item 3031 item 3035 item 3153 item 3006 . Let me take my time away from the game and calculate how much total gold that costs. Ok now onto their mid laner. Ok now onto their support. Ok now onto their jungler. Ok now onto their top laner. Gets back to game " Oh wtf we lost?" When its much simpler just to see " Oh ok even tho they have 3 dragons and a baron, they're only 2k gold up.

Enemy Tristana is full build, the calculations are pointless, you lose.

You can still shut her down, if you saw that she had no item 3026
My point is that its much simpler just to see the gold totals for both teams, its much faster to compare/look at, and can provide some hope when you feel like you're more behind than you acctually are.

Yes, and it would also cause far more surrenders too.

You know how many games I've had where both teams had a 5k gold advantage at one point or another? A LOT. If you have a 5k gold deficit at 20 minutes, are you going to play it out?

This would fix about as many games as it would ruin. No point putting it in.

This can go both way, if a team is losing by 8 k by 25 mins your team will insta surrender. And I have won games 10 k behind before, so it goes both way.
