Tower upgrades?

What if each tower could be upgraded at some point in the game? (Maybe after some sort of quest, like "farm 50 minions in this lane", you could get the option to upgrade the most external tower of that lane)

Possible upgrades could be, for example:

CC upgrade: the tower now shoots a laser ray that deals less dps but acts like a tether and Grounds the target. (good vs dives)
Splitpush upgrade: each wave spawned for that lane contains 1 (or maybe 2?) extra allied minions. (good to apply map pressure)
Bastion upgrade: the tower is more fragile but standing close to it gives bonus HP regeneration. (good vs poke)

Interesting, I kind of like it. I don't know about those specific upgrades, but the concept is cool in that it can help facilitate or slow down a snowball situationally.

The minion one is fine since its only 1 or 2 so it doesn't seem too OP really. Maybe add a turret upgrade ( not added by player ) such as a shield like Braums early game though to combat running it down mid as a team to stop people from insta pushing to inhib insanely early. I understand they have the dmg reduction but it should look more visually appealing to know your turret is taking less dmg.
