Rift Herald should benefit more of the team
Rift Herald right now feels like you are giving up too much for something that is strong, but wastes too much time to take and only gives that power to one champion, when it takes 2-3 to kill. I believe that Rift Herald should yet again be changed so that it benefits not only splitpushing top laners, but everybody on the map. Currently, there's not much incentive for an ADC to go Top Lane, since it's isolated, the Turret top is tankier due to having its fortification buff unlike Bot Turret, and Rift Herald is only good on champions that work alone, and an ADC Mid Game alone is easy to kill, even with a tank, and much easier with someone like
or
.
However, there is plenty of incentive to go bot for the Top Laner. 2-4 kills, a first Turret blood money, and a dragon.
I suggest that Rift Herald should instead give more incentive to the entire team and all champion types, not just splitpushing top laners. I think that the best way to end this "Win Bot Win Game" Meta where the Junglers make it a 3v3 until the Mid Laner comes down and it's a 4v4 is not to disincentivise Bot Lane, but to make top lane seem more juicy.
