The new Pushing advantage mechanic buffs your minions if the average level of your team is higher than your opponents, this will only make 4v5s even harder for the 4 team and a more one sided steamroll (as 1 of the team will always bring the average down, be it to lvl1 or whatever level they had when they left)
Unless there is a way to solve 4v5s this won't make it much easier.
Ergono8 votesSilver lining if you fall into a 4v5 and no one wants to surrender it at least ends the suffering a bit faster possibly even before 20 minutes... Yay -_-
Spoofghoul3 votesI have won many 4v5's as the 4 man team
Sometimes the other 5 are just bad players and you can still win easy. 4v5 isnt insta gg ff 20

it isn't if you have a better team, but if they apply this, 4v5 will be much harder for the 4 team.
Spoofghoul1 votesYes i guess so.

MaIevoIent2 votesi like the idea of turning 4v5 into 100% Loss. In my games, I like to type in chat to the enemy team to put their spirits down, and talk about about the person who's doing awful on their team, so that way they will rage quit. Riot is making this more of a viable strategy. I like their ways of increasing** strategic diversity.**

Thats greifing or damn close and reportable
BremerdanGorst1 votesEh, if the enemy minions are pushing harder or whatever, doesn't that mean you get to freeze/farm more? Forcing the other team to try and group and dive or something. 4v5s are going to be at a disadvantage regardless, IDK if stronger minions makes it that much worse.

it means it forces your team to split in order to protect different lanes, making you weaker in teafights, giving enemies map/dragon/baron control
Silents4291 votesSo literally no different then before.
ModKnightsKemplar1 votesYou are right, but Riot cannot balance the game around 4v5.
I don't like that change for other reasons, but I would never criticize based on 4v5. That's not how the game is intended to be played, and it isn't their fault that people leave games.
tricks and tips1 votesThey could make it so players with the afk status do not count towards the average level.
Silents4291 votesRight they are trying to smooth out the game to prevent games that drag on longer then they really should, it wasn't long ago complaint threads about how bad 4v5's were roamed the top voted threads for awhile, and now a solution to those (ending them off quicker) exists.
But flip the coin, if your on the 4 person team and play smart with objective control you end up with the advantage and it gives you a better fighting chance then before.
