Snowballing sucks. People who gets kills should get an advantage, but not an insurmountable one. How should we fix this, and where does the problem lie? Stacking items? Gold/XP gain? Respawn times?

I think a simple fix is killing the same opponent within...2 minutes of his respawn should give less gold/XP. Too much people gang up on the guy who accidentally DCs, or gets a bad start.

for the last time snowballing is fine. seriously i have comeback from a lane with a disadvantage so many times it stopped being funny a long time a go. and it was very funny for a very long time.

any kind of snowball is not super easy to get back from. it is difficult but just learn how to do it because then it becomes a lot easier.

if i am a jungler and i find my jungle empty i directly go to the enemy jungle but i ask for the people in the lane to keep a close eye on the mini map to see if the enemy is coming. i have gotten a lot of assists/kills from this systeam and it ain't hard to pool off.

if i am a mid/ solo laner and i get killed a few times i ask for the jungler to come and gank more. ez kills mid lane who wants them. even if they don't i just farmfarmfarm very passive. this is doable even with gods like He Bo and i usually end up winning my lane back. i make it my responsablity to save my tower and take his down. i call out the mia's and this ain't a hard strategy.

if i am the hunter and i get killed a few times i buy a more defencive item and i farm till a jungler gank comes or an enemy is out of possision and i jump on them.

EZ.

I agree with All4Games, there is nothing wrong with snowballing. It is a consequence of good and bad gameplay for the most part. If anything, a big cause of unfair snowballing is the extreme imbalance in the Gods. If, and I truly mean IF, we see that problem fixed, then the only factor that goes into snowballing is player skill.

It's not a snowballing issue. It's that you are paired up with people who are not skilled. If the system paired you up with players who are as skilled as you are and you are also going against players as skilled as you are, then it would all be fair. Of course, that is the only solution, not the game issue.
