Now that we have a summon able herald. I think it would be to give the towers more health, shit give it a shield I don't care just make it happen Riot it's disgusting, And don't even think of nerfing the herald just buff these towers pronto ASAP.

Ahhh, I remember a post where people told me the new herald won't do anything and me getting bashed for defending it and now he's tearing apart towers like scissors cut through paper.

No, this is a tower defense game, pre 15 minutes they protect you, after that, it is YOUR job to defend them, not vice versa. Herald dies quickly if you are coordinated enought to focus that crab thing, but you're probably bot farming three casters while that big fat thing got spawned mid.

to be honest when that thing comes out I'm usually heading straight to the place it was summoned to protect the tower. I don't know why you'd assume i'd jut be lolly gaggin in another lane letting the herald destroy things but yeah would not do that. I do know this is a tower defense game and everything I just think the herald does way to much damage on those towers. The herald is easy to kill sure, but one hit on the tower its already almost destroyed.

What's dumb is you can't even force aggro onto you. It will shrug off your CC the moment it wants to charge and you can't do anything short of kill it before it slams your turret.

I think Herald needs to be more susceptible to CC and should have its charge not happen if minions are attacking it.

would be nice to see that

And nerf the hell out of splitpushers for no reason? No.

KuroCubScout3 votes

not sure how that would nerf split pushing but okay.

AirKingNeo1 votes

Because if turrets gain more health, than splitpushers need more attacks to kill a turret.

But splitpushing isn't strong right now.

KuroCubScout1 votes

oh okay I get it now

TheSingularity2 votes

Turrets used to be far beefier and dealt far more damage. Split pushers were just fine, it simply took longer to get the same result.

The standard pushers were just as threatening at a later stage depending on gold income

AirKingNeo1 votes

Nope, splitpushers has items that helped them splitpush back then. And also damage to structures wasn't as messed up.

TheSingularity2 votes

Um. They had banner. And ohmwrecker which no one ever uses.

The only difference is zzrot portal indicating there're more split items than before.

There are plenty of items for split pushers to use.

AirKingNeo1 votes

No, Banner was never a splitpushing item because Fighters never bough it. It's a support item.

Zzrot got nerfed.

TheSingularity2 votes

Zzrot is still avaliable regardless of its strength.

There are just as many items to split with as before.

Saying they had more items back then is false.

AirKingNeo1 votes

Really? We still have Zephyr? We still have Guinsoo's Rageblade's passive effecting turret?

I thought not.

TheSingularity2 votes

Guinsoos still contributes with ad and attack speed and the multi on hit assists with clearing waves while u split. It is still a tool in this game.

As for zephyr. Given its niche pick rate prior to its removal, it wouldn't of made a difference regardless of if we had it or not as most poeple didn't buy it. If you did. Gfu. But clearly many didn't.

We now have the ap and ad elixir, the first granting true damage. Steraks gage and deaths dance. 4 additonal tools to compensate for the loss of a single tool that almost no one used.

AirKingNeo1 votes

Doesn't matter. That's 25-40 onhit damage against a turret lost. Toss in the fact they fucked up damage dealt to turrets for hybrid champions in the MYMU, Rageblade's split push is shit.

Sterak's Gage and DD aren't splitpush items.

KuroCubScout1 votes

he's right there were a lot less split items back then but regardless of what the item was originally for people still used them for split pushing.

Troll for Trump1 votes

It should be for splitting, but that's not what it's being used for

Poske1 votes

Indeed its used as distraction in my elo at best

IN an avg Herald gets 1 tower really not OP when you think about it

KuroCubScout1 votes

it can be op if you have a 2v1 at top one releases herald and team doesn't come help the enemy is also fed and stronger then you and your having trouble defending. I was playing top once and that happened Heimerdinger and Akali were top split push while everyone else was mid I lost both towers and my jungle blamed me then refused to help. I was playing Yorick that match.

KuroCubScout1 votes

I miss the damage the turrents did in update 4.7 they were a lot stronger back then.

The Rift Herald is basically a second tank that will win the game before 20 minutes if the whole team pushes mid with it and destroys the inhibitor because barely anyone can deal with super minions that early with only a few complete items and no penetration items. Towers definitely need a major buff.

KuroCubScout1 votes

definitely since the towers can get destroyed in 2 hits. make them do more magic damage. Not only that but why not make the towers be able to shoot at the herald.
