Boy am i glad nexus towers, your last defense, have 2700 hp each.

Cus even in lcs the most fun thing to see is one team getting aced and the other team just pushing once and winning. how fun! let's make it easier! seriously what is this joke? -900 hp for a tiny bit of regen that doesn't matter if the enemy gets the tower THAT QUICKLY. seriously as soon as one team gets an inhib it's basically over, all you have to do is pressure any other lane and if the enemy doesn't have someone protecting your base the super minions will SHRED towers in a matter of seconds. While i do understand some reasoning why riot doesnt want strong towers, i just have to say, it's a horribly boring style of gameplay. i don't even have fun in games where im completely stomping because i know the enemy will either surrender at 15/20 or lose before 25.

Not an exaggeration, Super Minions, even without Baron, are harder to kill than nexus turrets.

I'm also super glad that Baron buff now no longer just doses the champs with steroids like it once did, but instead it now ALSO gives a ridiculous and insanely overloaded buff to ALL nearby ally minions, too, super minions included.

I witnessed 1 wave of supers collide on 2 full health nexus towers and they proceeded to both drop within 10 seconds.

But that +15 hp per second really helps right??

Oh don't forget how they do no damage xD

I got to the conclusion that they are intentionally destroying their own game.

its quicker to kill a Last Standing Defense of Game Winning Condition than most of tanks in this game xd

What do you mean? It takes veigar 3 autos to kill a nexus turret isn’t that safe enough?

The thing is, i am not sure the problem lies with towers and more so with the power creep that are making said towers squishier.

DuskDaUmbreon6/17/2018, 7:52:33 PM2 votes

Yes. But what's significantly more fun is that it doesn't take hours for inhibitor turrets to heal.

A fair tradeoff, in my opinion.

Malix Farwin6/18/2018, 7:41:56 PM2 votes

Increasing tower health instead of lowering dmg output is not the right way to go about it. People will still be getting 2 shot and the damage creep will jut make those increased health numbers meaningless in the future anyways. Towers do not need to be touched, champion damage does.

Don't understand this issue too. Towers are just some deco to give the feel you are protected until the t-Rex breaks the fence and goes rampage

Every turret destroyed should cut 10 seconds off death timer. That way you get another chance to defend after an ace

I wish old Heimerdinger could be used as a comparison for turret regen. I liked his previous passive but even that would be laughable attempt to reduce turret fragility.

Well, the thing is that it doesn't matter if the towers have 2.7k HP or 3,6K. Hell, they could even have 10k HP and it wouldn't make a difference, if you have aced the enemy team. A 5 item mage will deal 700s with AAs to the tower, more with Lich Bane. An ADC will deal massive DPS as well. Instead of 2 seconds to take the tower down, it would take 5. In an ace situation, that barely makes a difference.

The way it is right now is that if you are able to mount up some defence, you might actually see you towers regenerating some HP so that you can find for a bit longer.

I miss the days when games took 40 mins, even in a complete stomp and whatever team had the better ADC automatically won. Those were good times xD. Can we go back to the time when anything besides bot lane didn't matter? that was the best meta xD

If you wanna slow down the game the Nexus towers are not where you should be focusing. The only thing a Nexus tower buff accomplishes is giving the winning team more chances to throw a game to the team with inferior gameplay/strategy.
