Last hitting the nexus and getting 50g, or...

So im playing Sivir and my team is in their last push to the nexus, we are at the enemy base and I last hit the nexus and get 50g this was a small joke put in by Riot and one day I thought what if instead of 50 worthless gold that you can't spend why not give the guy/gal that last hits the nexus 50 influence points eh? I personally think that this would be a neat incentive rather than holding off on ending the game so you corale the enemy team in their fountain like sheep poking them until the minions end it for you. Why not? Imma leave a straw poll below if you are interested. :) EDIT: someone gave the idea a little while after this was posted that it gave 5 or 10 IP instead of 50 so that ADC's are not getting a somewhat large amount of IP every game when it was unnecessary towards how they played and more on how they built and it would frankly be unfair, a couple people noticed this and I think lowering the amount is a good compromise while still keeping the incentive of a reward that means more than just gold you can't spend TY for your feedback.

As someone who doesn't play ADC, I can say this is a bad idea.

Other players don't have the attack speed necessary to have a chance at securing that 50 ip. 90% of games, the ADC will get the 50 bonus IP for no reason. Bonus IP should go to the MVP, or even a roulette wheel of chance that assigns it to a random member of the winning team.

So in essence, if I want champion/rune/store item X, I'm just going to build attack speed to try and last hit, or just dance around the nexus and wait to get the last hit for that 50 ip.

so pretty much give a free 50 IP to ADCs and champs that build tons of AD or can destroy structures with ease... would be nice if there was equal chance of everyone getting the IP but you should know that's not the case, not even close

It might actually give people some god damn incentive to group...

I think that a good reason to kill the nexus fast would be really nice. But, as others have stated, an ADC would have way more chance of getting it compared to a support. Maybe 5 IP? Just to keep the fun factor?
