Ok Riot, real talk

Ok so above is a discussion that got a lot of positive feedback on the EUW boards so i decided to share it here as well. I want to see how people here will look at this subject and maybe actually have a chance to reach Rioter's eyes because euw doesn't have any devs reading the posts there.

Please read the comments on the linked thread to get a better idea of what it is we are talking about.

Please remove the bounty increase from minions. It has no place in league. Csing is a core skill for every player so why is the player punished for farming well? it makes no sense. I could be farming better than the enemy but you are forgiving him for PLAYING WORSE THAN ME by putting a bounty on me that basically makes up for his lack of skill. It just doesn't make any sense.

Currently i'm watching G2 vs OG and perkz is 0.1.0 and he has a 650g bounty. Like what? Why is he punished for farming well?

So please. Just remove it. Stop giving worse players better chances of winning when they do not deserve it.

Apart from offering the losing team more of anavenue back into the game I can't see why this was ever implemented, especially since the losing team can also generate gold from cs'ing well.

How do you feel about changing the bounty paradigm to a calculation of item value, rather than net worth? It seems to fix a lot of dumb cases of flash farming

But this same exact argument can be made for the kills bounty.

It is hard to argue that the farm bounties being given are reasonable, but the system makes sense.

Shouldn't a person 30cs ahead at the 10 minute mark be 'punished' somewhat similarly to the guy who's even with cs but with 2 kills on their counterpart?
