Follow Up - Fixing Double Golems In Bot Lane

In my last blog post I talked about the need for some change on the map to make Blue less strong.

Since posting that I have had a new idea to help the problem that shouldn't have too many unforeseen negative consequences.

The solution is actually rather simple.  Make double golems spawn later than other minor minion camps.  Make them spawn at say, 1:55.

I don't believe that there is any jungler that starts at double golems and then heads to their buff so those routes won't be upset.  There's not really any way that a jungler will finish their buff before the golems spawn.  Doing the golems at their new starting time will make the laner get to lane quite late and miss minions mitigating any advantage they would have from doubles.

It won't fix positional issues such as where the Tri is located or getting to lane late because of helping the jungler but it will make it so that getting doubles early on won't be a problem and will fix it for both top side Red and bot side Blue.  Essentially from what I can forsee this change won't have any big affects on the game at large except to avoid early lane dominance based on which side you are on which is a negative aspect that I believe we will be better off without.
