Base Side Gates Power Generator

Squeezing my Hog··12 votes·752 views

So to add more tactical fights within the bases or around the outer base wall, why not replace the useless statue/pillar behind the side gates with a generator that would either:

  • stop the ability to use the gate Have a respawn timer like inhibitors or shorter...

  • reverse the useability of the gate (allowing the enemy only to use) Be able to switch back within a short time period 10s~(be able to be fought over)

Singed just got buffs! He even laughs automatically when he flings now. This would be so mean.

Seriously though, probably because of where the gates are. This would be one of those "Win-more" mechanics that Riot has been getting rid of over the past few patches. If you're already in the base taking out enemy gate generators, then you probably already have inhibitors and are about to win. Doesn't really add anything to the game since the winning team already has a strategic advantage, and the losing team is probably hosed anyway.

Would be interesting if you made the control somewhere in the middle of the map. Maybe if you control some new Epic monster, you gain control of gates for 2 mins or something? Would be weird though. What if you're standing on the gate when the enemy team gets control? Do you get stuck in the wall? Does it spit you out of your base? Feel like we'd have a ton of bugs to deal with too.

Not sure. It's kind of a cool idea, but the location of the gates makes it not that desirable in my eyes. Agree that the rock in the base is pretty worthless though.

No.

This will add nothing to the game other then an extra needless step to the end, especially when there goal has been to prevent games from dragging on.

Those blocks of rock aren't useless. They let Nautilus dash through the inhibitor turrets almost unscathed. So that's cool.
