Not long ago, the incident related to Dragon Chemistry attracted the attention of the League of Legends community. Accordingly, this Dragon buff proved to be too imba and affected the game too much, causing gamers and professional players to speak up to Riot. And not only “heavy”, a factor that makes the majority of gamers uncomfortable is because Dragon Chemistry brings a lot of bugs and errors that negatively affect the game experience of the League of Legends community.
Dragon Transformation – buff was judged as “error” both figuratively and literally at the beginning of the 2022 season
Riot, after receiving the information that there was a water treatment, although quite definitive, it was popular with the League of Legends community: temporarily removed the Dragon Chemistry skill from Summoner’s Rift. Riot’s neat handling is praised and shows that this developer has not completely “neglected” League of Legends after a long time exploiting this “national” game.

And recently, a mechanism continues that is causing the LoL gaming community and professional players a headache called: Target Bonus. This is also a new mechanism launched from the 2022 Pre-Season period to the present. Of course, like every new Riot mechanism, through many bugs and fixes, the Target Bounty has also been temporarily stabilized and applied in professional matches.
Target Bounty is a mechanism where, when spawned, the team that is at a disadvantage compared to the opponent (in terms of gold, turrets, big goals…) will be able to get a significant economic bonus if taken. get Target Bonus. This is also the premise for spectacular comebacks to have the opportunity to appear more, such as Misfit Gaming’s 13k gold flip before G2 Esports recently.

But the Target Bonus also proved too “heavy” than expected. Specifically, with some matches, the difference between the two teams is not too much, but the Target Bonus is still activated and helps the weaker team not only get the game but also take the lead. As recently, a gamer was extremely frustrated when his team was only about 3k gold more than the opponent but the opponent had a Target Bonus. In the end, this person was overturned with a gold difference of up to 8k.

According to this player and quite a lot of consensus, Riot should not let the Target Bonus mechanism appear when the two teams’ game is at balance, or the difference is not too significant. In addition, this person is also upset because in turn, the team they are leading does not have a Target Bonus for a comeback.
The event has received the attention of the League of Legends community and Riot itself. Right after the post appeared a few days ago, Riot himself spoke up. According to game NPH, this mechanism helps gamers who are on the winning side to really feel the difference and make good use of their advantages. As well as giving the feeling of “already” when the teams can make a comeback as well as making the match even more surprising.

But in general, Target Bounty is also sometimes really confusing and perhaps, if this mechanism is still too “heavy”, it will most likely have the same fate as Dragon Transformation: temporarily removed. to edit and return in the future.
