Current State of Dragon

State of the Season: Preseason Progress

"Similarly, Dragon doesn't look like it's attractive enough either, which leads to a consistent focus on taking turrets instead. That's not new to preseason, being something we saw as a trend toward the end of 2015, particularly in the World Championships. We're currently exploring changes here to put more value on Dragon, which would potentially include making the second buff stack more appealing."

Riot, on the current state of Dragon.

Fuck no. I don't want to see second stack made more, it's only THE SECOND STACK. No one tales dragons for the individual stacks, we take them for the possibility of a 4th and 5th stack, which should be strong.

My proposal? Just make Dragon's respawn time a little shorter. We don't need a dragon for every blue buff taken, but I think that the games are too snowbally, and too short for most games to even get 5 dragon stacks. Making the second stack more powerful is just going to add to the snowball that everyone is complaining about right now.

EDIT; I don't understand the downvotes. Can someone please explain instead of just downvoting because you saw it was already a negative number, so why not make it more negative? I thought you guys said that you didn't like how snowbally the game is now, so why are y'all snowballin these downvotes?

NO. That'd ruin Forecast Janna 's audio.

what they need to do is make turrets be less attractive overall, turrets are way to weak and give way too much gold. At the bare minimum outer turrets need to give less gold than what they currently do. No one cares about dragon once past the first stack since it takes too long to stack up and turrets are way too easy to kill and give stupid amounts of gold making them a win-win situation while dragon is more of a "can i take this for free? no? then we'll comeback to it later"
