Love how rather than take the straightest clear path my champ diverts into and around my minions

Minion block be damned. What's 10,000x worse is when you have a very clear, very open path to your target and for no GODDAMN REASON YOUR CHAMPION RUNS TO THE NEAREST MINION AND PROCEEDES TO JIGGLE DANCE FOR 2 SECONDS BEFORE GOING AROUND - **YES AROUND THE LONG WAY ** THE MINION HE DECIDED TO WALK INTO!!!!!!

I know you're never going to bother to recode collision detection to allied minions RIOT Game Inc Programming Team but for the love of heaven will you at least fix pathing so it doesn't completely decide to randomly fuck up our lanes and games!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Is that too much to ask? Or do I have to buy several more skins before you'll bother because right now your company feels more like a Kickstarter Campaign where we have to pay to get anything done.

Why? I've always heard that it would be op as people would stand on the minions so they couldn't be killed but at the same time you're also going to take a ton of damage doing that.

The best part is that you can still do that, you can still stand on the minion and block the enemy auto.

because pathing needs to be skillgated, for whatever dumb fucking reason i don't know.

Or, how about getting boxed into a wall by a single minion? That's always the best.

Downvote me all you want, but it would make certain champs completely and utterly useless, while it also would break some champs

We must make a torture chamber for minions.

Not going to lie minion blockage is annoying as shit it's tilting. Seems like they're like fat in a way.

Oh my GOD I can't even decide where to begin with pathing in this game. So an example is the other day (Left base side of map) I was walking up our jungle along river, you know right on the inside of the wall near the right side of raptors to avoid getting killed. Well, even though I clicked directly above me (right under our tower) when my character started walking there she randomly decided to back path and do a U-turn only to turn around again and then walk to turret. What the hell? Yes, it got me killed. There's no reason for it either, there were NO units nearby.

There is nothing more annoying than when you can secure a kill and your own minions decide to doggy pile you and your character starts spazzing out on them because the game can't figure out how to just simply pat around them. UGH! Not gonna lie, I like League and I play it a lot. But the pathing in this game is hands down some of the worst I have actually seen before. A regular tilter.

Minion pathing and hitboxes should absolutely have a look at, but removing allied minions hitboxes isn't the answer

The stealth added the current state of minion block back in S4-S5. You know when someone left being the lead and someone else got promoted.

Thats because Riots Minion block changes that they stealth added to the game also leaves ghost corpses of Minion that block. The minion dies and melts into the ground but it stays there for a few seconds under the ground but it blocks movement.

Riot let an Intern recode minion hit boxes and introduced this "Design" and let it stand because anything that is ez to fix is not worth fixing.

I've been so stuck in the caster minions as a melee vs ranged scenario that I was killed and couldn't escape, no flash or mobility (silly me for trying to not use a hyper mobility champ, I know). The minions wouldn't move because they were attacking and were in such a way that the jiggle computations were just moving me from jiggle to jiggle.
