in the video rift herald did like all the towers health and took little damage itself, i dont think that is ok. Another thing is Rift Herald Is harder to do than baron because of the timing and pressure. We shall se when it comes out

This should work great with toplaners who can push the wave nonestop. I can see some mages coming back to the meta ( Lissandra for example, not many toplaners can push her out of lane )
the Herald has damage related to its HP, the more damage it takes the less damage it does, its tanks as hell but thats its design, you can also stun it and blind it to stop hitting.
its not without counter-play, but lets see what happens.
I just don't like it because it's now the most important thing in game pre 20. Like.... damnit Riot I get you want to make Rift Herald relevant but damn... giving teams a hugeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee advantage if they get it which probably somewhat close to auto win status in high elo. Like really? Couldn't just.... you know.... buff the buff or maybe have it spawn some smaller minons that push but don't 2 shot turrets? Idk.... maybe give the team a mini global baron buff or something. [zombie-brand-facepalm]
