Why not just give those values anyway? You shouldn't be diving two turrets deep as it stands.

Unless you meant after enemy towers fall, your own get stronger?

That's what I mean, the remaining turret, First turret -------> Second turret, Second turret absorbs those percentage values.

Why make it so convoluted instead of just giving the stats to the towers upfront?

This would discourage split pushing in Solo Queue, but keep things the same in competitive.

I'm really not sure what you're getting at... Considering you can't take towers until the ones before them are destroyed anyway, why make the granting of those stats conditional on the destruction of the tower before?

Because Riot doesn't want to buff towers outright, doing this will slow down the snowballing lane in Solo Queue instead of having them destroy two towers and half of an inhibitor turret. Team will have more time to play around and defend.

If Riot doesn't want to buff turrets outright, then they won't want to do this either, because this is just giving buffs to turrets.

It's a different kind of buff, it's a late game buff rather than an early game buff

It's a buff that occurs any time the first tier tower falls, so why not just give those stats to the second tier tower at the start of the game?

It's no different than a direct buff because it doesn't scale into the game as well as you think it does.

As nice as that sounds, it looks like it will stall the game even longer.

Pretty sure Riot designed those tower to just fall apart after 20 mins to speed up game times.

As towers right now, they seem counter intuitive, a defense that's designed to break, so i get where your coming from.

They need to be longer. Longer games are more fun

I agree but the only issue I have with longer games is the IP. Be it a 20 minute game or an hour game, without a first day of the win, no way is anyone, win or lose, seeing 110 IP. That is the only reason why I do not want games to be longer, for the IP grind.
