Give us a way to spend this lategame gold!

Jlesaistu··1 votes·864 views

One of the things than anoy me are the extra long lategame game...where you are just full build sitting on tousand gold than serve zero purpose.

Why not use this gold to give player a way to add extra strategic diversity to the game?

We could for exemple:

-Allow player to buy permanent stats boost (hp, ap, ad, etc) to make them stronger -Alow player to buy base/minion upgrade. To Add extra pushing power, or defensive power. -Spend gold to unlock a other item slot? -Even other gimmick, like other upgrade, to boost visibility or mobilitym, etc.

IMO this could add more dept to endgame, isntead of just sitting on gold trying hard ot make oen fo those big play/fail than will win the game. Player could decide between increasing theire individual power for most burst, geting more survability...or actually staying just as strong but giving overall booost to pushing or defence.

Of course they would be poor gold effiency option...But it would be nice to have somethings to do with this lategame gold.

hes right tho. you can nitpick at his examples all you want, but there is always an item you can sell for another item that suites you better in the late game.

EG. damage soaking>damage dealing. if everyone is full build the team with the tankier items wins team fights, and since death timers are longer and the value of gold is going down, staying alive is more important than getting kills. the only way you can win a game that gets to this point is to get free kills or get 2 for 1's... or be so tanky that you can ignore the other team and push towers while taking damage. so basically, if you dont have a GA to sell bc its on CD, sell something and buy a GA.

That would defeat the whole purpose of turtling item wise. Once you reach about 45 mins, if one team was way ahead, that gold difference doesn't mean much. IT comes down to purely teamfights, or a throw.

Yea, i would decrease the effiency fo turtling by allowing FED team to actually KEEP pushing godl advantage beyond the 6 slot limit.

what is totally fine in my book.

no. if your team is fed to hell and back and you just sit around farming up an epic KDA ratio, you should get punished for dicking around. the game has to end some time and that means that you need to actually take advantage of your advantage or you'll give your opponents a chance to win.

Well sometime you are not dicking around...but the other 4 on the team are....

hapenned to me so many time i had somethings like veigar...completely full build, 1300 ap....i yet could not push and win alone caus the rest of the team where all MEH, having 4 item at best while i was 6 slotted with 3k gold remaining...

you know..those game where one player in WAY ahead of the rest of his team...but overall game still close. WELL...would be nice if this ahead player would have some strategic option to help the rest fo the team furether more. ok keep having way to push his advantage instead of wait for them to turtle and catch back.

so what you're saying is, in a team game, a team has to do well as a team in order to win? that's freaking ridiculous how dare riot encourage such things.

Just a quick response - That much AP, with a Lich Bane, you'd be taking turrets in like 3 Empowered AA.. And able to stun their entire team for long enough to shoot 1-2 of them off safely.. I feel like it should've still been possible =S
