i mean, you can TP to Thresh lantern, Teemo Shrooms, Shaco boxes, even JarvanIV E and so.

why not GP's Barrels?

Edit : so much good answers but still not clear why you cant TP to GPs Barrels? A rioter answer would be nice

Yeh I'm not sure how that would interact with GP or an enemy attacking it. Zac blobs become immune to damage (like minions) I think Teemo mushrooms will still explode. But would it really be fair if enemies couldn't destroy the barrel but GP still could? Or GP not be able to deal out one of his main sources of damage because an ally used it to tele?

Feels too unreadable and unfair and confusing on too many levels.

Gp placed perfect barrel into enemy team. Gp uses Q on that barrel, that would win you the fight and the game.

Top laner TPs onto it and it doesnt take damage --> doesnt explode. gg :[

You can't tp to the barrels because the barrels are ENEMY units (see the red circle around it) and as such you cannot tp to "hostile" things.

Wow, I didn't even know that you can TP to all those things. If it is true, I 100% support you

fun note; you can TP to RekSai tunnels as well.

that's something I learned recently, weird as hell... i think they can be destroyed while teleporting too.

They are more like neutral, because both teams can attack them

Is it not fucking obvious? If the barrel were placed in a perfect spot to deal a load of damage to the enemy team in a crucial fight, and then suddenly somebody tp's onto it and it doesn't do damage, you are screwed.

gps barrels are destructible by him and enemys this may not seem like much but other than small vision its in the same line of a neutral monster while both teemo shrooms and shaco box are only destructible by enemy team thresh lantern and jarvens flag cant be messed with

Dont forget Zac passive.

Because GP's play would be disrupted. Maybe he needed it for damage and now you're teleporting onto it, which would prob make it immune to being used until the tp is complete?

I dunno, barrels are meant to be used pretty quickly is all I'm saying.

Didn't know that I could tp to J4's flag.

You can TP to thresh's lantern? Seriously?

The fact that you can teleport to Thresh's lantern concerns me more...

Remlap12239/6/2015, 10:13:28 PM1 votes

Wow, no timers and not being able to TP? And people are seriously whining about GP being OP?

TotalJerk9/6/2015, 4:51:38 PM1 votes

I think they are coded as enemies

RaxSpike9/6/2015, 3:17:44 PM1 votes

Huh, I thought they fixed TP'ing to Thresh lantern.

Dr Poro9/6/2015, 1:49:49 PM1 votes

You can also TP on Rek'sai's tunnels and Zac's blobs (the ones from his passive when he dies).

Jacknife9/6/2015, 9:57:35 PM1 votes

I would imagine you can't due to the fact he can drop one down almost whenever he wants, so its basically a crap ton of roaming pressure for free. Say he left a barrel in a bush top lane after backing, and we find out his opposing laner is gone bot lane. He could tp to the barrel and hard push top lane, probably all the way to inhib turret. How is this different than just doing the same with a ward? Because it doesn't cost a damn thing to use a barrel. So basically he can splitpush, leave a barrel, back off, wait for the enemy team to leave that lane alone, tp back and push again whenever its off cd. That's some Shen level crap right there.

Vincent Lucius9/6/2015, 10:14:13 PM

I'd assume because the barrels are like pets instead of regular objects. It would be like teleporting onto Tibbers or a voidling.
