ARAM is seriously fucked up

Curious Kat·10/18/2018, 9:57:57 AM·102 votes·24,654 views

I have about around 4000 ARAMS played. And let me just say, it is seriously fucked up in the RNG department recently. And with many other bugs that i will list, I'm pretty sure the RNG as turned into Rigged Number Generator. Instead of Random number generator. Been seeing the same champs over and over again regardless of f2p rotation. I'm talking 4-5 times in a row.

  1. Snowballs are fucked up and have a delay sometimes, you press it, it doesn't go off, you move around a bit and boop, 3 seconds later it flies out, not internet related either. Nighthawk router, wired connection, 100 down, 20 up, no packet loss, no bullshit "it's not our fault" to explain that one. PLUS, it happens to EVERYONE who uses snowball alot, and they complain about it as well. Not just me, but many team mates in matches iv'e played over the last month or so have complained about it.

  2. Emotes are broken. They disappear like you have none. Id'e say 4 out of 5 ARAMS you have no emotes. Definitely more times than not for sure. It's like a luxury to have the silly things. Not tooooo big a deal, but, it exists, and has existed since emotes came out.

  3. Health pads are not visible sometimes. And the only way you can tell they are there is via spawn timers.

FIX YOUR MODE. I know you care only for worlds right now, but fuckin A, fix your damn shit please. These bugs have been an issue way before Worlds, so no excuse that "we are to busy to know about it or fix it". Fuck off with that shit.

Unfortunately, ARAM is not a skin or world's atm, so it definitely gets a huge back seat.

Seriously I paid for my emotes, not being able to use them even half the time because ARAM isn't riot's favorite kid is really depressing. Rather than fixing the issue I feel like my emotes show up in less games now.

nr 1 never happened for me.

rest happens pretty much every game.

Also, as a newcomer in NA and a huge fan of ARAM mode, I'm sad to see so many bot trolling real players games. Maybe Riot could make something to detect and ban all those level farming bot accounts.

You do realize fixed take time.... Right? Its been like a week with the invisible health kits, calm down.

As long as world's is going on the rest of the game will suffer. The amount of ignored fixes, and crappie balance chances to cater to world's is sad.

They don't even make a profit on world's, yet they're fine killing the game slowly over time for it.

ARAM is beyond fucked up. If it's not the bugs it's the 1 sided stomps that have become common with the implementation of the bench because it's far easier to roll a good comp. I'm afraid once Nexus Blitz is up permanently the ARAM population will end up dwindling down, 1 patch a year for ARAM maintenance isn't enough.

Aram is the worst game mode ever i used to play it but no aram is not balanced like what is the point of making the whole team ap? which is 100% win Also there are some champs if u had them in ur team u will win by 100% like Lux Xerath MissFortune Jhin Zilean and and really this one is ez to win in aramVeigar Veigar Veigar Veigar Veigar Veigar Veigar Veigar Veigar Veigar Veigar Veigar Veigar Veigar Veigar Veigar Veigar Veigar Veigar Veigar Veigar Veigar Veigar He is the most powerfull champ in aram which is ez carry ez life ;3 oh sorry i forgot to add Brand Brand Brand Brand Brand Brand Brand Brand Brand Brand Brand Brand Brand Brand Brand Brand Brand Brand

All Random right now is not RANDOM by any means, all i ever play is ARAM and i can tell you right now you will see the same champions over and over and over on it.

I own all the champions right now and on ARAM i only ever roll the same champions over and over.

Its definitely not random, no by a long shot.

Yeah these bugs are getting super annoying having to spam ping the timer to get a legit 1 hp ally to take invisible relics.

I hate not being able to spam Tahm or thumbs up emote after surviving/Get flashed on.

I have to say you swear a lot, but you are so fucking correct. I do see the same champs over and over in that same day. It seems to me as though it's not random, but for a specific time period there is a certain pool of champs. All Rigged All Mid

wanna know some other stuff thats broken about it???

Zoe e has the wrong ground hitbox and goes completely invisible if shot far enough kleptomancy is completely overpowered along with warmogs turrets are super stupid at shooting and never hits the person attacking you nidalee spears are like the worst ability, between sometimes being invisible and passing right through people champions like lissandra and zac are more often then not the wrong color (white/gold for even tho lissandra is blue and zac is green)

the whole thing is riddled with bugs

i dont think they actually care about aram

And sometime you cannot see a gate the beginning of the game...

Dethflash10/18/2018, 5:22:23 PM3 votes

Dont forget the towers are broken too, i would saw 1 out of 4 times the tower doesnt target a enemy champ under the tower attacking you, even though that enemy champ is the only/ first enemy champ to hurt any one of your teammates under your tower. But like you said, Riot only cares about the pro play, so probably been several more months before Riot even realizes that they should fix this BS

I'm in the process of going through my last 200 aram games and creating a spreadsheet of champs I've seen because I had the same exact feeling that something was messed up. I wanted to see the amount of times you see certain champs (veigar/kennen especially).

There is also a distinct pattern of champions you can roll for it looks like.

is it just my parkinsons or do my snowballs sometimes go in a random direction

Hey i'll deal with these bugs as long as they keep the infinite poro snax bug.

While we're at it, item 3083item 3083 item 3083 is pure aids as well and needs removed. If the other team has a Mundo, there's basically no point in playing because you can't win unless their team is literally being played by 5 year old blind kids.

If you play a lot of ARAMs, you're more likely to see "patterns" like the same champs a few times in a row. They're not really patterns; they just look like patterns. Humans are bad at detecting randomness.

AidanWR10/19/2018, 2:22:27 AM2 votes

I've noticed the fact that the RNG is greatly biased a while ago, I got the same champions three times in a row with every champion owned, and I've never gotten certain champs, or got them once, and I have over 4k games. Another bug that I've seen happen is that the health relic is sometimes marked on the map while it's down, which leads to confusion

i had to stop playing aram because of that reason, same cancer ass champs every time i ever played it Xerath Ziggs Sona MissFortune Fiddlesticks Heimerdinger

yea i agree that arams are bugged. I have yet to see an enemy team without a fiddlesticks or a veigar, leading me to believe the game wont start without one. As for the dissapearing emotes, the Karthus emote especially seems to dissapear often.

Yep the emotes NEVER appear for me.
