What if....we had more stuff that cared about lane minions?

After saving a draft game with a 1/10/4 Nunu Nunu that had Banner of Command item 3060, ZZrot item 3512, and Ohmwrecker item 3056, it got me thinking, is there any way to add more minion enhancing stuff ((or maybe a champion concept in the future ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)) to make minions an even greater threat to the enemy team without making a busted combination of items? Also, could we change the ability buffs so that they can target minions, but champs have a higher priority. (sorta how nunu's blood boil can target champs & minions.) I'm really enjoying these items and wish there were more, similar styled items to mess around with. Maybe something that increases or decreases minion movespeed in its radius so that you can manipulate when your opponent can interact with these minion waves or you could have an item that, when activated, surrounds you and gives you and your minions health regen.

I'm just looking out for the little guys

Not so long ago riot removed possibility of using some buffs (like some shields) on minions. So yea. They totally gonna revert that now -_-

I wouldn't be a fan. I find that kind of thing to be extremely uninteractive and unfun to play against.

Dont give them Ideas.. next thing you know, we have a 4-tank and soraka teamcomp while the unkillable Baron+banner+blood boil minion keeps getting healed. (That would be fucking AWESOME)

what if there was an item that was actually a "Banner Of Command" and it redirected Lane minions to march to the banner to fight? so u could place the banner in the jungle and the nearest lane minions would march through the jungles to the banners and fight there. it'd be interesting to say the least. could be super trolly/useless/op

That would be sweet, imagine starting your own minion gang and the minions look up to you as like a god or some leader and you proceed to conquer the lane together and triumph to victory

Despite how good it really is, Ohmwrecker is probably one of the most niche items in the game. It's good if you plan to ever fight under tower, but not really worth getting as a first or second item (I should actually try that sometime just to see if it would actually do good). On top of that, nobody really knows it exists. I remember using it once and one of the enemy players called me a hacker cause they had never seen the item before (lul). Even my premade teammate had never seen anyone use it before, and he's been playing since season 4/5. I do like using it, and have used it a few times but otherwise if you don't have many towers left or your team is tanky enough to take some shots, it just kinda sits there unused basically just giving you cdr and health. Not that that's a bad thing of course. But still. Not sure at all what could be done to help out this item. I think it's fine as it is just really situational. Sorry for mini rant.
