@Riot putting current gold of team mates in tab menu?

Can we add an option in the tab menu to see how team mates current gold in inventory or even how much they accumulated if possible? One of the biggest things focused on in LCS games is who has a gold advantage, seeing which team has one might add an interesting aspect to the game and letting a team know "We may be up 6 kills, but they have so much more farm we cant just disrespect that." As a support player it would be massively helpful to know how much gold my adc has to know if i can just back safely so he can grab a BF or even when theres a possible teamfight mid lane to see if someone is sitting on alot of gold to maybe say "Let him buy before we fight". Its something that shocks me about not being implemented right now and i think could really add a neat little dynamic to the game.

Chat is there for a reason :^)

For real though, assuming no kills, your ADC should have a BF sword at ~35 CS. Hope that helps!

Thats great and all, but that was just one example. Ive had games where my jungler says "lol have 5kg" after we are sitting there trying to force fights. I think itd be a great change for the game and would atleast like to here a Rioters thoughts on it.

The main problem of it, is team morale already has a major issue with KDA discrepancies. For example, if the score is 10-3 you feel like you're losing/winning even if the gold difference isn't much.

Would it be healthy for the game if team's could see that they're down significantly in gold even when the "score" is 5-5? It's an open debate, idk what the answer is.

Also I was just trying to help and give you an example. I understand it can be frustrating, I experience that as well.

However, when you play the game long enough, you can tell when someone has a lot of gold in their inv based on their items, kda, and cs.
