Killing turrets wins games... killing dragon HELPS win games... so IMO, turrets are more important.

Turrets before dragon, unless the turret is already low. If you're talking about enemy turrets, push! then go for dragon =)

Also for baron, turrets > baron.

Turrets should always be prioritized. Baron & Dragon can wait. Sure, as Mowen says; It's HELPS you win the game, but pushing down turrets ENSURES it :)

This is so true. As I understand the game, turrets can sometimes be even more important than inhibitors.

Hypothetical situation: Both teams are about evenly matched. Your team just took baron and had a minor team fight. Your team is down one champion and enemy team is down 2 champions and is retreating. All downed champions have approx 40sec till respawn.
The map situation is as follows:
-Enemy top lane still has all turrets.
-Enemy mid lane inhibitor is exposed.
-Enemy bot lane is down to inhib turret.
-Dragon is up.

What should be your team's next move?

I just want to keep smiling FOREVER

I'd take inhibitor mainly for the super minions. Distraction > Yi > Backdoor ^..^

Really? I thought the being able to take 2 turrets at top lane would be more important than the inhibitor.

Even with baron buff and up 1 champion, I thought taking the inhibitor would still be risky as you face losing 1 or 2 teammates(and their baron buffs). Meanwhile taking top lane turrets would be relatively easy and net you more global exp/gold.

Inhib for sure. There *are* situations where dragon is more important, though. Namely early-mid game. If the enemy team is pushing top with all 5, you've got 2 guys defending and they are doing a solid job defensively, and you have 3 guys hanging out bottom..... they should do dragon, no question. While pushing a turret is roughly the gold equivalent, the turret will wait, where as dragon will turn into an advantage for the other team if they get it.

I'd say as a rule taking dragon is never worth losing a turret. Aside from that it's usually more important than taking a outside turret, sometimes more important than an inner, and never more important than an inhib.

Depends on the flow of the game. If your jungler has just ganked bottom and killed one guy, then get bot and mid to run over to dragon because early game, you're not going to get that tower but you'll definately be able to get dragon with one of their guys are down.

If you just aced them, pushing turrets is much more advised than taking Baron.
