Farming Bounty is Stupid

Just played a game as Draven and ended 1/14/11(I cant catch axes) and got shut down 4 times that game giving up a 500-600 g bounty to the enemy team EACH TIME just for farming. What i don't understand is why I even got the bounty put on me so many times in the first place. By the end of the game i had 20 less cs then the lowest cs laner on the enemy team excluding the supports and the lowest total gold, so why was i punished for trying (and failing) to avoid the enemy team and just farm for a while.

I hope they balance this ASAP because now im just terrified every time i play a champ im shit at and feed that ill wind up feeding even more gold because of my playstyle.

I earned a 450 bounty from a 0/7 Yasuo, which was funny as hell. But I do think that's retarded.

I like their attempt though. To balance the bounties around who potentially is the most threatening on the enemy team. The execution isn't what i'd hope though.

Like imagine a pro play scenario where there are few kills occurring, But one person is farming insanely higher than everyone-- They're technically a beast that needs to be shut down/protected.

Yeah I got a 450 bounty for a 20 cs lead one time. Fuck that.

Also 2 kills making you have a bounty is stupid.

Naah, it's good, it stops ppl from just giving up and going YOLO when they have a bad score, because they think they aren't giving any gold to the opponents even if they die.

They took the bounties completely out of twisted treeline. Honestly I like having no bounties better.

There should be no bounty whatsoever for having a CS lead. Having a CS lead probably means consistently outplaying your opponent in lane. Imagine if you're up 100 to 50 cs and you both kill trade for 1 for 1 and now you both have even gold.

All this does is encourage people to do is just pick assassins that inherently farm poorly. Now you will get shutdown gold if your opponent makes 1 mistake.

Support Draven. That's what I'd do. If I didn't hate Draven.
