In football your opponent does not get stronger every time they make a touchdown either. So the punishment is even greater especially early game in league.
In footbaal you can go for the riskier two points after a touchdown instead of field goal.
If there was something similar to that. Though not sure how that would be implemented.
You can also try for an onside kick, which is quite a desperation move.
There are doran items and cull for this. There's also mejais which is usually used on champions that can still be useful from a safe distance like lux xerath.. Though you can try it if from behind.
For most part things help extend your lead in lol
There's also touchback when you get them to back into their own endzone.
You can make an enemy lose yardage with good tackle its not just forward play.
Baseball foul = strike but if you're on your second strike its a foul instead. I think this is a good comparison. It says you can hit the ball your on the right track. You swung and had a pretty damn good calculation versus a heck of a good pitcher. In other words you Didn't blink
, shouldn't this be rewarded?
And to be fair would it really ruin football if say every team got 1point for being withing 5yards of endzone, a point that would be included in touchdown?
Probably have closer nailbiting games on your hand.
If you could do so on first down get like 2 points guaranteed only received once the ball changes sides or included in touchdown. Or even denied if intercepted.
I think would be a cool twist.
