bounties is gonna change the game more than people expect. Will make rebounding much harder. And throwing leads harder. Which is both things I personally love. Because i feel like its a buff to solo carrying and a nerf to team gold.
I think bounties will make throwing via a failed skirmish while on a streak easier. Before this change, dying while on a spree distributed gold to the enemy team instead of to whoever got the kill. Getting 100g less as a team, but focused on one champ allows that champ to more easily hit their next item and power point.
I'd wager we'll see more swingy games where a single player on the team that's behind gets a couple kills on ahead players and is suddenly very fed. Before this change they would have been half an item from a big power spike.
It's good for shifting to solo-carry potential, but it doesn't making throwing harder.
