You're right. It doesn't matter if they get fed, it only matters that the towers get pushed down and the minions destroy the nexus. Teamfights and skirmishes are just distractions from the main purpose of the game.

NOT EXACTLY

Teamfights are what this game is about, not just winning. Fighting is the FUN aspect of a GAME. In a GAME like League of Legends, people ENJOY the thrill of a battle and when you get a PENTAKILL you and your team and the enemy team scream and cry all over the chat.

It works, okay? It works when you split-pushing every lane and the enemy is too derp to counter it. However, if that is what you do in every game, maybe you should stop working, and start playing.
