DotA suggestion...

Not sure if you would have to get IceFrog to make the change or if ENT could just do it with their stats but...
It sounds ridiculous and stupid at first but think about it...
Give +3 kills for whoever last hits the throne. Instead of teams farming well when there is an afk and the losing team can't !ff I think you would see games finish faster when they are effectively over. Also, a 1/5 chance at getting +3 kills ONLY when you win really wouldn't effect peoples k-d ratio much, in fact it would probably be more accurate once you factor in how much less they well farm.
Any responses welcome

Well, no. I do not support this, since a throne is a throne.. Not a unit where you can get 3 kills for it. Might aswell have all the towers in the game give +2 kills for each one you destroy? I am sorry man, but I normally see both point of views; this one is just..what..? We would basically need to reset all the stats to have this in play so it can be "fair".

DotA is a team game. It requires teamwork to win and so there is no reason to award one player more elo than the rest simply because they last hitted the throne. Also giving a 20% chance for an extra 3 elo is absurd, especially for the people that play support heroes.

It's three kills, not three ELO. And purpose would be to discourage fountain farming.

How exactly would this stop fountain farming though? You make more then 3 kills with a fountain farm and add to that you still can make the 3 kills when or if you decided to finally throne it.

With what Randomloser said exactly, I tolerate 0 fountain farming, its not part of the game and should not be allowed in the first place, having this 3+ kills for getting the throne is absurd when people could just kill people until the throne is low enough for the last hit.
