Please acknowledge this thread and just bring back the animations.
Killing minions is now slower. You can't attack them unless you're in very short range. Previously you could activate the animation from what seems like 300% longer distance, covering the ground quickly. That's one thing that just throws any possible reasoning for not having animations out of the window.
Another is that you can't clear as efficiently with heavy attacks (the minion-executing-animation-based ones) anymore either, and they also helped cover ground.
And then of course the waste of the animation aesthetics is also just completely sad and unreasonable. Everyone loved them.
The removal of animations was completely useless and made killing minions boring, harder to perform and clunky. It was possible to use guard mode and clear in the same manner we are doing now without animations, and it was useful at certain times, but not always optimal, so this is just... I don't know, I have no words.
