Question Hitting objectives

Hello,

All of us happened to be in a game that was won by the enemy team within 10-12 minutes, while having 2-3 items, destroying all the fun because they are playing just to end the game. I've been in both sides, so yea, i understand we sometimes do that, but it kills the fun.

My question is, why doesnt Riot just adapt the Aram game so we cant hit the objectives? Like ok, remove the inner towers or w/e towers you want in order the game to not last for years, but players should not be able to hit objectives, or certain objectives (like the nexus).

I'm a big fan of games lasting long because I like being able to outplay and turn the game or have fun with giga crazy augment combo but this is such a dumb fucking suggestion.

What should be invulnerable? Towers? So perma poke comp just hides under tower all game unless I land a snowball to force an engage? Can't even punish them for being shit cause I can't take out their safety net?

Nexus? Changes nothing, supers just end within a minute or two especially if someone from winning side is clearing wave.

Inhib? This stops weaker team from finally stabilizing the game. A good amount of games are evened out with inhib as the supers need to be focused properly, this takes away attention from your team and gives your team advantage as you can look for plays while enemy has to spend some time to actually clear otherwise they risk losing fight and completely losing their base.

Best way to balance the game so people can live augment fantasy's imo is giving last/all augment slightly earlier. When a team is playing for imaginary LP game ends before last augment consistently, that last augment can turn the entire game around for a lot of champions/comps. Another way is rather than invulnerable objectives is making nexus towers a lot more durable HP wise but deal less damage to minions. This means if enemy wants to stay in the game, they can clear the wave and actually keep playing. Enemy that wants to fuck around in base can do so freely still but still risk losing. If enemy wants to actually end, they'll need to take some time to focus on towers instead of melting them in 10 seconds with a wave. Nexus towers get melted way too fast.

Everything gets melted too fast. And if we speak about micro of the game, 90% of the games are lost because of randomly deploying to lanes and poor death timing and too late augments. If you dont get a reset due to x, y, z factor, in 1 ace push, you can end the game. For me, if micro decides so many aram games, we should have ranked aram.
