Could Turrets attack Champions faster?

One of the problems with turrets in League, is they just seem to do so little. They are easy to kill and don't do much damage. However, increasing the defensive stats of turrets would most likely lead to games stagnating, as the higher defenses of a turret keep it from being destroyed, and teams could just stall games. At the same time, you can't increase the damage per auto of turrets, since then people can't farm under turret, a necessary part of trying to come back after losing lane. With these in mind, I propose that turrets should have increased attack speed, only when targeting champions. The AS stat would scale with game length, something like this:

0 - 5 Min: 10% increased AS 5 - 10 Min: 20% increased AS 10 - 15 Min: 30% increased AS 15 - 20 Min: 40% increased AS 20 - 25 Min: 50% increased AS 25 - 30 Min: 60% increased AS

Capping out at 70% increased AS for 35 + minute games.

They nerfed turrets so games would be over faster, are you new to League?

They did a good job at that.

No, I remember when they nerfed turrets. That's why I'm against them just directly buffing their defenses or AD. However, it also seems that, at least in this meta, turrets have been overnerfed.

That would be outrageous!

Awhile ago riot changed it so turrets auto damage doesn't affect minions as turrets now do a % max hp damage to minions which lets you farm reliably under tower no matter the circumstances so turrets can just be given more AD if its really needed.

You can increase their damage per hit, turrets were changed to always deal a percentage of a minions max health at all points in the game, their AD has no effect on minions.

I don't agree with damage buffs to turrets but I would just like to point out it's a viable option if they felt turrets are not providing enough damage pressure to early dives.

I want to see the machine gun turrets at the nexus. just make it 5 Atk Speed for both of them so they can actually do things.
