Why punish being ahead.

Why am I going to be punished for out csing my opponent now? Hell, why are they going to be REWARDED for doing worse in lane than me?

Why were you rewarded when you killed the guy who killed you 5 times since the beginning of the game? Sounds like nothing's changed.

I feel like nothing has changed other then the fact that they made it visible to you, as a player, how much you will be giving up. Though someone that super out farms another but down in kills did not have much shut down gold so that will suck

It will still be worth more than now which is a good thing. Good farmers are often ignored by the enemy team that generally focus on the "seemingly high KDA player". Now they'll have to be more careful IMO.

I agree...my BF plays split push champs and generally has a good 100+ CS up on the enemy team and is often ignored or they have to send 2 people to stop him...he wasn't happy with the changes lol

I do feel that they increased the gold a bit. The highest it goes up is 1k and seems to go up pretty fast...minus the supports of course cause ya know...Riot shows no love for them XD

Leona skins incoming tho!! Does it reset the CS gold counter if you're executed? In the patch notes it only states "since their last death" so I was wondering if it could be a viable option to die to a turret or the baron when you're doing a good job with CS.

I knoooooow gosh darn it my wallet I dunno about that....I should try it in a bot game and find out XD or maybe a Rioter will see this

I also tend to dislike the bounty mechanic. But I see where they are going with it. It seems like they increased the gold you can get from playing really good in the early game, but they also increased the reward for coming back from those deficits if you play well as the defending side, it seems like they are trying to bring back viability for both early comps and late game comps in the same meta which is really cool if it works

CS bounty really is the dumbest idea ever. Usually even if you dont kill the other laner you can get an advantage from forcing them back so you can get exp and gold for free, but now this is taken away

Same with if you've been managing your wave properly and able to CS while denying them theirs, the bounty takes away this mechanic too

Tbh it’s just another way to continue this assassin meta riot has a hard on for.

The main weakness to them is they lack lane sustain(except you Akali ) this is just giving them even more gold for their already dirt cheap builds.
