Who's the worst champ to get in ARAM?

A teammate of mine got Evelyn the other day and I thought "oh man, i'm so sorry." I guess at least he wasn't Ivern.

Anyway, who do you hate getting?

Udyr

Just fuck no. No. NO. I got him once in aram, never again. I will dodge if im stuck on him. I already hate him on SR, I'm not playing him on Howling Abyss. Its literally a 4v5 when Udyr is selected. Atleast Eve and Singed can kinda do something when the map opens up.

On a side note, I actually like Ivern in Aram. Sure he has no passive but he's still able to be an annoying disrupter.

well at least udyr can build full tank and be a stunbot

try doing that with shyvana lol

she is the worst aram champ, most other bad picks have at least 1 thing they can do, which includes udyr, but shyvana is literally pointless on that map, no passive no clearspeed advantage to be gained and no cc no poke no sustain

Don't hate me, but I find Eve kidna useful from time to time. Especially later on like you mentioned, where she can basically pop an adc and has an aoe slow at her disposal. I kinda like her lol.

Shyvana. Your passive is practically useless, you have no CC, no sustain, no poke.

lightdragoon88Jul 10, 20178 votes

Her passive is different on ARAM. It increases when turrets are destroyed.

Udyr Aatrox Mordekaiser Evelynn Shyvana

These guys bring almost nothing to the table in ARAM. At best they can build full tank and be a meat wall for a while, but they're so weak to poke that they'll spend more time dead than alive.

LordDeViJul 10, 20175 votes

Evelynn is pretty decent in aram, because she one shot really easy early game, just stay in bush and it will all work out ps: lich bane first item is bs on Evelynn aram

Funnily enough, Eve and Ivern arent too bad. Ivern gives your immobile teammates a nice engage and shields your carries. The bushes both work for and against you though, but his ult works like it should. Eve isnt bad - its more difficult to flank, but as long as you arent starting the fight you can wait a second before popping out and deleting a carry. Problem is that she is too squishy without her ult, which is on a long cooldown. Far from useless though.

The worst IMO is Shyvana or Aatrox. Udyr can become a stunbot. Aatrox has a hard time doing anything once he gapcloses, and Shyvana just runs around cleaning up.

StonemperorJul 10, 20178 votes

I've had Aatrox in a few ARAMs, and they were all terrible experiences.

AdeBugJul 10, 20174 votes

Oh I've seen my share of fed AAtrox's

TheMoralSupportJul 10, 20178 votes

Wth!?? Ivern is AMAZING in ARAM lol. So much AOE cc, vision blockage, tanky, sustain for days. Pop a item 3190 and item 3107 on that bastard and he's completely broken! From my experience at least lol

Darth StepVaderJul 10, 20177 votes

Udyr and Trynd are the worst at the top of my head. Mundo used to be great but, with all the grevious wounds he is worth nothing now. Aatrox, Voli and Yorick are meh as well.

Pre-rework full AP Ali was amazing but, now he is trash tier in aram.

Full AP Nasus is a very good pick, unlike what some people above claim. The same goes about on-hit thresh since he stacks quite fast.

Full AP Nasus is good early, but he falls off hard.

I build lichbane on ap susan and freaking one shot everyone.

Critmaster GarenJul 10, 20177 votes

Shyvana just completely sucks in aram after her mini rework.

it used to be that you have to wait until her passive upgrade around lvl 11 when you could really start fighting aggressively. now, that power spike never comes.

she just dies and barely does any damage.

StandgroundingJul 10, 20174 votes

try AP shyv

Rammus.

H O L Y S H I T . After the W change he's literally an useless champion.

ValeckseraiJul 10, 20176 votes

Yorick People... LET. ME. GET. GRAVES. PLEASE!

Since cs is such a clusterfuck, it's almost guaranteed that your team will deny you your highest source of damage. Plus he has a pretty bad teamfight.

rework trundleJul 10, 20173 votes

Buy Sheen + Longsword, you can get most cs with Q. AA reset is really smooth on this champ so it's not too hard, as long as you don't get poked down with this bad early build.

agbudarJul 10, 20176 votes

Udyr nothing but stunbotting works

MegagonJul 10, 20176 votes

Singed

Build 6 tears on him,because your going to be crying the whole match.

arghilostJul 10, 20174 votes

any CC-less melee that doesnt have really good scaling. Eve, Shyvana, udyr, aatrox, etc

Anything else is pretty viable on ARAM, lol'd hard at the people saying ivern/alistar are bad

YambrinZJul 11, 20174 votes

Udyr and Shyvana Feel pretty bad.

KynamiJul 11, 20172 votes

Watchu saying about our fair lady dragon?! She can work... just go off-tank with magic pen.

No seriously, Sorcs + Liandrys plus the usual titanic and tank items. That fireball in ult form hits significantly harder than people expect. Getting 11+ kills with Shyv in ARAM is quite possible.

According to aram.lolytics.com the bottom 10 champions in terms of win rates are: leblanc 32%, rek'sai 36%, ryze 36%, evelynn 36%, lee sin 36%, akali 38%, kha'zix 38%, rengar 39%, and udyr 40%.

As far as personal opinion goes I don't really like getting Hecarim because I feel like I should be able to

press E
someone
dash in
walk behind them
knock them into your team

But you can't because summoner 32 makes you immediately auto attack the target leading you to just knocking the target away. Which is strange because summoner 31 does not have the auto attack queuing behavior.

CåracalJul 10, 20173 votes

Alistar, Heim, and Alot of the free to play champs, Alistar is pretty awful since he' s not really long range and yeah... Heim I can't play worth crap, the free to play always seems to be champs that I can't play as in all that are close range and not mages haha, even worse I'm a support main. Edit: The reason I say Alistar and Heim are bad for me is because i'm really bad with them in aram! Ok so please don't take this as I'm saying they're bad, I know they're frikin hell to the enemy team with other people but not with me. Ok? Edit 2: Lets see if we can get this to -100! I know you can do it internet! (I'm just having fun at this point with my opinion that got down voted so much cuz I can't play Alistar in aram to save my life, if you scroll through to like page 7 I commented what end's up happening for me haha, and I'm really not trying to offend anyone or... I don't really know but yeah lol. So... it's my opinion? Sorry not sorry? I promise I'm not trying to be an asshole for once, and I usually don't try to be on the boards? So... Have a good day? I really don't know right now haha.

Mecha MaIphiteJul 10, 201719 votes

Alistar's decent. Snowball into Q basically means you knock someone into your team for free, and the AoE heal is nice. WQ is useful as always.

Lol, I'm not talking for anyone else, its just my opinion for me. So just keep your own opinions, the post asked I gave whats bad for me haha

I dont have to lol, they just don't have to bash on me for it lol.

UnvictusJul 10, 201712 votes

They aren't.. they're just saying why they think he IS good. They aren't calling you dumb or calling you names.. that would be bashing. Don't overthink what they're saying and put words in their mouth.

fuffychanJul 10, 201744 votes

Are you kidding? Alistar is basically autowin because every time his snowball is up he gets a guaranteed kill.

Heimerdinger is a boss in ARAM...

I Main SwainJul 10, 20173 votes

honestly im thinking about it and for me there really isnt any worst champion, it all depends on the player and the matchup. ive had games where getting sona sucked, ive had games where getting someone like udyr who i think most people hate actually single handedly won us the game.

Moonfall SaberJul 10, 20173 votes

Nunu has to be the most useless. I actually like getting evenlyn in aram. She's really good at picking odd multiple low health targets

NachingJul 10, 20172 votes

Alistar, Poppy, Shaco, Teemo but Nunu and Evelynn are the worst... When pick Nunu i always regret of bought that ugly champ jahaha

Generally also dislike any assasin when your team is full range because you are always the sparring and the one taking all the risks haha.. A assasin without tank in my team is for me bad luck.

Akali Bard Gnar Ivern I hate getting any of these, they are too inconsistent

RookPusherJul 10, 20175 votes

Bard? Really? Have you ever built max CDR, a tear into staff, and all AP including Nashor's tooth? He's a monster.

SchmidttyGamesJul 10, 20177 votes

I build ARAM Bard very similar to Kayle, and I don't take E until there is nothing left to learn.

Bard item 3100 item 3115 item 3124 + Meeps to help damage while Rageblade Charges. It's really nasty. They have to treat you like a Hyper-Carry...or you will...

QuannariJul 10, 20173 votes

When I get Bard, I go "Burst Bard". Bard item 3285 item 3087 item 3100 item 3145 +thunderlords + meeps It's hilarious to see people go "pop"

karthus might honestly be the best ARAM champ

XonraJul 11, 20173 votes

That's still Sona 100%. All you gotta do is build some MR and Karthus is quickly useless. His ult cd is just dumb on ARAM with shorter games, and his ult actually doesn't do all that much damage compared to the cd on it.
