Just wanted to point out that a 0/0/0 varus soraka bot lane took the tower before the 5 minute mark with their starting items. I know a Vayne Leona match isn't the best into it and I knew we needed to get a few levels before fighting but they legit took the tower in bot lane just after 4 minutes past. They did not kill us and we farmed it up and cleared the minions as best we could but they won the lvl 2 race due to not needing to help jungler so we had to back off. Before we could hit level 3 they had our tower at sub 30% health.

Riot, enough is enough. This should not EVER be a thing to happen. They were not fed, they did not win lane either by any sense of the word except that they took tower before 5 minutes past. We never actually had a chance to fight back or defend the tower even once due to being level 1 to level 2 then level 2 to level 3. The jungler went top and ganked and got top rolling but in that time just for the jungler to clear their camps and gank top our tower was already gone.

If anyone thinks that towers are fine you are waaaaaay out of touch with the current state of LOL. Riot this really needs to be addressed.

The lack of Fortification buff for early game down on bot lane towers is to blame... that coupled with the fact that it's a 2v2 lane, meaning its usually going to be two people smacking the tower instead of just one.

But still, yeah towers are in a pretty miserable state nowadays... Couple that with the rise of tower aggro resetting mechanics in champion kits and the fact that the targeting AI seems really dumb at times...

But i guess Riot only wants FASTER PACED (Hence the Demolition rune and Dark Harvest procing damage on towers as well as Rapid Firecannon allowing Energized attacks to work on towers) games to cashgrab even more so buffing them is out of the question lol
