I miss my Turret

I recall back in the day 2012-14 (someplace in there) - turret shots were a pain in the pre-verabal backside - the only way you would withstand such a barrage from this minion killing monster was to be a "TANK" dive in and get the hell out after you so much as breathed on someone, or grab yourself some decent armor AND hp and then you could survive and take a few shots, but eventually you would get spanked as well. Diving "too far" in was not something you were concerned with, because if you went too far, you would screwed, dead, done, over with - then came the whining, the complaining and the great - some say "balancing"

Flash forward to now 2018- with her giving her a bit of HP and no armor, jumps under turret and ultis, spamming her mastery emote while said turret fires what could effectively be a water balloon at her - while your team dies, she laughs because then she then shumpo's out and the turret goes ,"sorry guys my bad shoulda bought that " Gone are the days when turrets were a threat and a defense thing in order to allow "faster games" - **Yes i get it **- no one wants the 2 hours games of old. - but this is not a champion were talking about, its a TURRET - its meant to be a threat, and not just at lvl 1-7 either. Unless you are a "tank" - or built to be semi tank - (which means more then a bit of bonus hp) you should not in all theory be able to just walk under the turret and do what you like.

I see this over and over in games - grab a , dive the turret and your team can grab kills because , well the turret is just a minor inconvenience. I mean people are more scared of turrets then the big lane guardian - and with good cause, his turrets scale with his AP, while the magical turret monster - seems to scale with - uh .. how fast grass grows on the rift. in the river... after trims it

I am NOT in any way saying that turrets should 1 shot people, or 2 shot em , turret dives are a must - I mean no one wants to play against that guy that just hides under the protective wing of his turret and never comes out - but on the flip side of that argument.. might as well, leave the turrets outta the game altogether and put little houses in for minion's to destroy, at least no no one gets the idea that the BARN is gonna help out-

I have also seen someone dive in . hit someone and the turret seems to be looking the other way - as it narry fires a shot at the offending champion, and merely continues its day to day job of standing there looking impressive or shooting the little guys. (I just assume these people are either very lucky , or the turret figured "Hell I'm not gonna hurt em anyway, why try" With the new rune that lets you do a rather impressive shot to the turret after 6 seconds, I do not see a reason that our guardians of the Rift, have been left to tend the flowers, while champions have grown evolved, and even the rift itself has evolved - Show our guardians some love - i mean hell at least make em do some dmg to "squishy" guys - maybe something that does extra to "low" health enemies? or if they lack X armor? Make em "level" in time with the game? maybe all 3! - they level as time progresses and at X level do bonus dmg to champions under X000 hp, if they lack XX0 armor? Or a keystone that "buffs" tower dmg if they are by it .. (to help protect our squishy guys) - (no not turrets, that might be abused - and he is kinda mean to start with)

Thanks for listening, reading, replying with helpful ideas, and being all around be good people. -
