Unpopular opinion: people who want stronger turrets just want a crutch for their bad macro

i just think targeting on turrets needs to work differently, you shouldnt just be able to have a tanky support tank like 8 tower shots while your getting dived it should focus whoever is currently attacking you

Or because they want laning phase to last longer hence why the want for stronger turrets.

Because the turrets use to be this big strong magical statues that were actually capable of defending themselves even without the champion, but thanks to rito's balance genius years ago, the turrets became nothing but cheap plastic action figures with a sign that says "pew pew" on the top of its weapon and shoots nerf bullets. And to top it off, given some sort of barricades that each plate destroyed grants 160 gold, and despite that they become tankier, they still die quite fast, therefore increasing snowballing and making even stronger than before.

That company sure hates big scary fortress statues. But apparently they are bad for pro play.

I agree that when "laning phase" is over, all bets should be off, but for at least the first 15 mins, they should give back the shield that turrets used to give to allied laners. Assassination under turret shouldn't be as simple as "we have a +1 man advantage so we can kill someone". I actually don't have any issue (even before plating when they were weaker) with how easy it is to kill TURRETS, the problem is how easy it is to kill CHAMPIONS when they're under turrets. (which is NOT to say you should "invincible" if you're under an allied turret, but that it should be a really dangerous proposition to dive it, with the danger falling off as the game gets later and later)

I am personally offended by how true this is.

turret defense is fine. it is their damage that is shit.

Maybe but I sure do like where turrets are at. It’s nice that a 4 man gank at 8 min bot lane=turret. Heck I’ve seen it go down at 6 min. Now you can strategize and such and actually have a laning phase.

After laning phase the whole point of the game is to take objectives and win. You are the one that is supposed to protect the objective the enemy is trying to take. This game isn't called "Sit under your turret and let it do all the work for you Legends." Turrets are supposed to get easier to kill as the game goes on so teams can actually end the game. Idk why people don't understand how that's supposed to work.
