Kills squishies well, but tanks usually get the aggro.

Good way to fix turrets is to deal HP % True damage. This will probably fix all the diving issues.

Honestly this wouldn't change anything. The major problem with turrets isn't that tanks dive them, it's that there's so much freaking mobility in the game now that tons of champs don't even NEED to be tanky to dive a turret since they can get in and out of its range so fast.

I really don't think so. Turrets do their job well in killing squishies. I find Alistar + ulti tanking the turret shots extremely broken. Or Leona turret diving because of her really high armor.

Okay, turrets should deal magic damage rather than physical. Most champs build armor early because it is useful for everything, however by changing turret shots to magic, they will have less resistant to it and will take more damage.

Maybe if they gave turrets grounding or grievous wounds, or even more range or attack speed. So tired of seeing squishies towerdive people and barely suffer any damage for several seconds; even seen a soraka pull off a successful tower dive before level 6.

I'd much rather see turrets doing meaingfull dammage to squisies so they would need tanks or atleast someone with tanky stats to dive. I find it more then rediculous when i see them diving for a kill and taking multiple shots without dying.

sure but this meta has been around for longer than one minute and that should result in someone getting fired.

this meta is the worst it has ever been.

Probably because the fundamental issue isn't the meta, but the fact that for eons turrets have been nothing but Gold pinatas that do nothing to prevent divers.

It's more of the fact that riot is too lazy to fix the meta. Want to fix the bot lane gang bang?

Step one is to give the bot turrets the same protection as top and mid until 7 minutes into the game.

Step 2: Make the turrets do True damage at 10 minutes into the game. If they aren't going to boost the health of the turrets especially with the new masteries (hell one is a fucking ziggs bomb on towers) then giving the turrets some additional defenses early/mid game will be great.

Step Three: Stop giving the jungler all that power. It's really annoying that you manage to shut down the enemy jungler only for them to get one asisst, and suddenly they are back in the game with catch up xp. it's too much right now and needs to be lowered.

And lastly, Riot needs to seriously take a look at their Match making system. My Normal MMR is gold, and I've gotten paired up with challenger players queing solo...

honestly i wouldnt even mind the adc meta quite as much if it werent for the fact that riot has been specifically designing the game to go much faster, and theyre continuing to do so. i mean honestly its not even uncommon anymore to see the enemy team in my base at 8 minutes. when i started playing that was around when first tower was taken.

get rid of first tower gold

bring back gold dragon

This /thread or make it less or add gold to both. Gotta make other objectives worth it so people don't ALWAYS rotate bot and just take first tower.

Nope, first tower gold is the only thing that encourages standard lanes.

You say bring 4 bot, does that mean 4 total in bot? So you actually only brought 2? Because you can't bring 4 is there's already 2 bot

How about turrets do % max hp true damage, with a minimum of damage so they can still force tanks to hold aggro before squishy champions do. And this damage will scale with the average level of the enemy team (so if the average level of your team is 17 and theirs is 15, your turrets will be geared for a level 15 champion).
