Ok so why arent the minions equal? i noticed in some games minions would get shoved with minions for no apperent reason(wasnt being outfarmed) but the opponents minions in the lane seemed to be stronger than mine. I tested it with a friend in a 3v3 and we stayed bot lane the entire game. So We are bot lane and top is just minons against minions for whatever reason the top minions grabbed inhib and i won because of it. Neither opponent got bot inhib.

For one, top lane pushes by default for blue side, and bot lane for red side. Also, there are minion pushing changes as of this patch for whatever team has a higher average level + the number of turrets taken. So basically, whatever team has level/turret advantage will have all their minions do more damage than the other team's, and therefore push. I'm not 100% sure on how exactly this applies in 3v3, though.

I don't know if they extended it to 3v3's but for SR at least, the winning side's minions get a slight offensive buff, letting them push the lane. This was intended to a) avoid a winning lane being able to just freeze the lane and farm more advantage, b) end games faster if they're a total landslide, but also c) give the underdogs a chance to get more farm by essentially pushing the "gold" towards them, so they don't have to go so far out and risk getting killed to get farm.

So far.. I don't really like it.
