Minions = small group of soldiers

I think that the weirdest thing in MOBA are these minion characters. I believe it would feel so much more epic if they made a skin of the minion that displayed say 5 tiny soldiers (still one unit). I mean we are playing these super natural champions so it would make sense that they are much bigger than the soldiers. The siege minions could just be siege soldiers and the super minions could be giants or something. I think its time League make a break from DOTA. As a life long RTS player I think all of the units you see on screen are a big draw the genre. Plus it makes it feel more real. The minions just feel dopey/out of place to me?

I mean a lot of the champions are the same size as if not smaller than humans. So it would also look out of place for them to be tiny compared to the Champs. There are points where you have to suspend disbelief. League of Legends as a game isn't cannon. The world it is based on has lore and is cannon, but the League itself was struck from the books and doesn't exist. Most of the champions we see have never met and never will meet each other. So you kinda have to accept that the League takes place in an alternate theoretical reality that doesn't make sense.
