...So you're telling me that the 0/11 Ezreal that hit a lucky last-hit Q can now take all the gold for taking down the 25/3 Yasuo... Nice. Thanks so much.

Once in a blue moon, but the ezrael has a much bigger chance of getting back into the game currently by W'ing one of his teammates and partaking in the huge bounty money. This change will make it easier for you to solo carry dude.

If what you say is true, then they're killing their own game. It's moving faster and faster towards full team-oriented play, and bringing back solo carries is just going to jumble the whole system. My point is, if you have someone that is really behind, and they keep getting the shutdowns, then there are 2 problems now; 1. your team gains almost nothing. Teammates that are behind very rarely come back into the game. Better to feed someone already doing well. 2. That player that got shutdown still knows how to play the game, clearly. He's still a threat.

The game has become less popular these days just because of how team oriented it is. It is supposed to be team oriented but not THIS much. Why do you think people hated dynamic queue?

My point is, regardless of what people like, Riot has been moving towards more team-oriented play. As such, if they do something like this without reverting other modifications, they're destroying their own vision. If they don't want it to be team-oriented, shutdown gold is a very meh place to start as it's very unreliable. It doesn't reward players that are doing well, and it doesn't severely punish players that are doing well and goof up. It's too easy for the wrong person to get the gold, and there's not much that the person getting shutdown really loses (actually, with these changes, they can't be shutdown multiple times in a row). I agree that LoL shouldn't be this team oriented, but this is the wrong way to fix it. Work on things that are more reliable, like extra solo kill gold.
