"Even the most powerful champions will melt if targeted by one" referring to a turret.

Are we playing the same game?

They technically aren't wrong. An ice cube actually takes a really long time to fully melt.

An ice cube set out in a bowl will melt faster than a mundo under a turret...

Turrets are just paper tigers in general, useless automatons meant to give enemies gold and deny you farm lmfao

Have they seen a full tank Galio sit under turret with his W on him? Turrets don't do anything lol.

Incorrect. They actually heal him.

Wait.. What's a Galio?

If I remember correctly, a Galio is a waterproof overshoe, typically made of rubber.

No no, you're thinking of a galosh. Galio was a language spoken in early Medieval Scotland.

No, no, that's Gaelic. Galio was an Italian astronomer during the Renaissance.

Sinlaire30 votes

Not quite. Galio is actually a collection of art works set on display in a public forum for viewing.

Ackelope30 votes

I believe that's a gallery. I think a Galio refers to an open space in a forest.

My friend, you're mistaken.

Galio was Ash's rival from the early days in pokemon.

Galio is obviously a money currency used in the fictional setting of Harry Potter.

Somebody lied to you sista. That's the Galapagos. A Galio is the place where they hang people when they execute them!

Thats way off. Galio is the latin term for a gallon.

you are very wrong, a Galio is a carved stone creature often made of granite that contains spouts that direct water away from the sides of buildings.

why do I get the idea that this comment section was staged xD

Ancestor0074 votes

No, that's obviously a galleta. A Galio is obviously a big conglomerate of stars, planets, asteroids, axions, black holes, neutron stars, dark energy etc.

Summoners Rift has installed several Turrets Laser Pointers at critical choke points to deter enemy offensives.

This is a tutorial video. Teaching you not to walk up to a turret to kill it. So yeah try taking a full build vayne to an inhibitor turret with full hp and see who melts.

Does the build include armor? Cause if it does, it might be a close fight.

I don't care how much armor the vayne has the turret will literally always win.

Not true lol

Vayne is only champ. It's very possible for Malphite Rammus Taric Alistar to tank a full health turret without a minion wave. Nexus turrets included (only took 1, then had to recall) with Rammus and Malphite .

Both times I was against full AD teams. Rammus item 3068 item 3143 item 3742 item 3075 item 3047 item 3025 Malphite item 3068 item 3742 item 3143 item 3110 item 3047 item 3027

I've done it a countless amount of times as Tryndamere Volibear Twitch (Twitch doesn't have to tank it, just activate ult and destroy the turret safely from outside it's range) Jax XinZhao

Late game it's possible for any tank to walk under the turret to take the blast while a teammate takes turret. Tank + adc = can destroy 3 turrets without a minion wave with a full build late game)

Thats considering you even focus turret, UltraScept seems to believe that the turret winning is the important thing. The main point is the turret doesn't do enough, fast enough. Sure the turret will take out vayne..eventually... after she penta kills your team under it because the tank tanked it for her first.

It used to be that a split push tactic could be avoided because turrets actually protected you, you could fight a 4v5 or even a 3v5 under turret. Now you only have the advantage if it's 5 man under turret, in which case the enemy just doesn't fight and split pushes the other lanes.

In the old champion spotlights they did this to trick you into thinking a champion didn't have shit damage outputs so Phreak could be all "muh tons of damage". Watch Yorick's spotlight.

I recall being Jungle Nautilus once on Summoners Rift, both teams were gathered up around the 2nd enemy bot turret and I threw a hook out to grab someone (I believe this was the same game where I could 1v1 the enemy Graves so I was pretty fed). I proceeded to tank the turret for the entire teamfight, that tower wasn't doing anything to me.

dived a half health nasus lvl 4 as poppy and got a kill and got out before the turret could pop my passive shield. feels good man.

There is still 1 champ who can keep from dying under turret no matter what Riot does (short of removing his heal on 3rd auto attack)... 1.5as 450ap xin HEALS to full under turrets.

I'm less bothered by the turrets' current damage output and more bothered by how seemingly easy they are to shred.
