When you have 2-3 inhibs down even when the enemy has baron they can only really defend because if they go out for even 20 seconds their base will be pushed and they will auto lose the game. Completely different to where you could push and then back, kill creepwaves, and then go push again even if you were behind. Even just with 1 inhib down that threat exists for your nexus turrets and you can lose them and the game if you leave. It never was as bad before, but with minions taking quite a few tower hits each endgame, it becomes a lot more detrimental since towers can't even defend themselves. edit: Tempt you with this for a good 5 mins. Too good: ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/UdMpK.jpg) | ||

Splitting the players searching for a game in 3 categories (without counting 3v3 and arranged 5s) will increase queues times, witch is not a good thing. Besides, normal is for fun and trying new heros, why would you even want draft in that? I wouldn't mind a preview of their team before starting tho, going against mundo and team has no exaust is never a good thing Solo Queue> Normal> [ x ] Draft [ x ] Blind Pick shouldn't be too hard, most solo queue players would probably check both anyway since it doesn't matter that much to them. The argument for draft mode in normals is so you can actually get your feet wet before jumping into ranked - it's kind of funny how the 'competitive' and 'non-competitive' modes in a game are completely different. | ||

Right now I'm just running around stealing all the farm with revive port support heroes to buy hundreds of AP and it's working. At every Elo. At lower Elo it's even more important because it will give you 50000 games winning streak :S | ||

The one downside it seems like they didn't anticipate was split pushers that are super hard to stop in pubs can single handedly win games just by pushing the base while you fight over other objectives, and of course if they actually destroy enough towers or waste enough of your time what seemed like an even game now becomes very hard for the team who got split pushed to win. It just means pub games now often revolve around trying to shut down a teemo/nidalee/singed from pushing your base rather than team fighting etc... Personally I would find it more fun if to reduce the game time they left minions/towers as they were and made it a bit easier to snowball from actually killing the other team. It's kind of irritating that to actually "carry" in pubs you have to go around ganking no matter what lane you're in, but in reality if not for the fact you are better than your opposition the dominate strategy is clearly to sit in lane and farm since the reward for killing people in reality is just not that high, especially when the other team can just end your spree for a huge bounty come teamfights. | ||

Not making players loose gold on death was a choice they probably made right of the start so dying is not as frustrating as in Dot or HoN: | ||

Sadly, the 0/6 kennen and 0/4 lee sin (both top lane) stopped me from enjoying the full game (surrender at 30min) Edit: I was 8/3 too, just couldn't carry them :/ | ||

As is a 15-20min inhib is gg cos they're toos trong | ||
