Can we please lower minion gold please?
One of the steady measures of snowballing in this game has been the steady increase of how easily gold is to gain.
Turret plating is one of these as you can get a whooping 600 gold for free as a solo laner for getting all 5 plates before they fall.
Gold has become to accessible and easy to get considering how much cheaper items have gotten.
In season 6 a
cost 1600 while minions gave 20 melee / 17 caster / 45 seige. A standard 3 /3 / 1 wave granting 125 gold.
These days
cost 1250 while minions give 21 melee / 14 caster / 60 seige (capped 90) + turret plating gold. (165 gold without plating, 285 with 1 plating).
So what exactly is the consequence of making items significantly cheaper and gold more accessible? Well it's what we have today with champions spiking faster than ever and the complaints of damage.
Personally I think gold values where actually fine in s6 mainly form siege minion as it can grant a whooping 90 now. Gold has becoming to accessible for how cheap items have got and if turret plating is going to stick around minion gold itself should be looked at.
