Does anyone else think towers aren't meaningful?

They seem to not do anything that meaningful in-game, at least to me. Most champions can just ignore them once they're level 5, even squishies.

It feels like their reason for existing vanished long ago...

They're already looking at changes to towers:

{quoted}

6.9 should include the changes to mage kits, the AP item changes, modifications to dragon and the dragon buffs, a revised Rift Herald buff, towers that ramp in damage on subsequent shots a bit quicker, stronger Red/Blue Buff (late game especially) and a few other bits and pieces.

Late game, you don't even need minions to take a tower. Me and my 3,500 health will tank it and 5 seconds later Ally Super Minions are spawning. They need to be more punishing...

They arent that useful.

You can even live after using you Xerath or Vel'koz ults ubder tower while taking turret aggro. Ive done it a lot. So much so i dont play the game as much since it feels more boring.

My proposed tower buffs : Outer and Inner Towers : +5% increased damage per shot vs champions, % scaling (based on game time) armor shred per shot (for 5 seconds, duration refreshing each shot) , and +0.5% damage per shot based on champion missing % health (1% MHP giving +0.5% extra damage, 10% MHP gives +5% extra damage as examples).

Inhibitor and Nexus towers: Ramping true damage, 0.25% Max Target Health per tic vs champions bonus true damage, and tower gains +50% - 100% armor and MR based on turret missing health (starting at 25% missing, capping at 25% remaining).

They're the most important objective on the map outside of Baron. Just because people are able to dive you under them does not make them meaningless.

Getting that tower dive in bot lane.

Enemy Jhin prepares his ult, Jungle, Support dives in.

Even without Jhin item 3070

Me and my ADC item 3070 RIP

They have been pretty weak since Riot decided to nerf towers because they wanted games to be more snowball-y and stompy. (don't ask why)

i just love it when im shen, lvl 6, ult in bot lane, taunt in the turret from full hp, tank 14 turret shots while my adc and support murder them, then leave with still the 1/4 of my hp.... #season6
