As a Jungler, the impetus is on me to adapt to my teammates, especially when I play more supportive Junglers like Nunu. Especially in regards to Auto Attack Carries, Gold is by far the best measurement of strength. While I can infer Gold through Item costs, that seems to make it all the more arbitrary to me that I can't directly see the Gold my teammates have.

Yeah, and having to infer Gold from their cs etc is also tedious as hell. I can do it, and I do, but stiiilllll
JackMcCarry2 votesLook at their items. Even if they have 8k gold, it doesnt matter if they didnt back and still sit in lane with Doran's blade.
By the time they cash that money, they are out of lane and cant be ganked, when they are back in lane, you just need to compare items with their enemies to measure their damage/sustain output.
Zlera1 votesInferring gold is a skill, like timing jungle camps used to be before the tool tip update that now tells you "160 sc respawn".
TehNACHO1 votes"It's a skill"
It's arbitrary.
BrightWîngs1 votesYou can know how strong someone is by the items they have and the champion they are playing I feel adding this will only give toxic players more ammo to flame people if they have low gold
TehNACHO1 votesYes, I said that in the post.
Toxic players will flame regardless of anything. Restricting the rest of the player base from an otherwise useful QoL change because the 12 year olds have no social skills seems backwards.
BrightWîngs1 votesok but they dont need more reasons to flame people
ChrisBrownze1 votesI mean gold earned is not a useful stat, cuz if they havent spent the gold, it's not being used and can be very misleading if a teammate is walking around with 3k gold in their pocket.
Even if the gold earned stat was available, It's much better to look at their items and their level to determine their strength, rather than their gold earned.
Summoner SpeII1 votesi just want the stat of how much gold they have, because gold in the bank is gold not had.
