LoL players are fuming over this old broken system—but Riot isn’t listening

League of Legends’ bounty system is under scrutiny again. Players are pulling the latest competitive LEC matches to showcase how the system is making it worse for the teams falling behind in the matches. 

In a Feb. 17 Reddit thread, a League player shared an example of the bounty system not working as intended by referring to a screenshot of the match between Karmine Corp and Vitality in the LEC Winter Split playoffs. The picture shows K’Sante had a bounty of 153g despite not being ahead of his opponent in gold. His team was also down by 4k gold, two turrets, and even six void grubs roughly 17 minutes into the match.
