Honestly (about ARAM so move away if you're here to say "it'S jUsT ArAm")
Just remove rerolls and bench in ARAM, it's just manipulating RNG and ending with one-sided games 80% of the time

The bench may have meant more 'strong comps' coming through, but it has also made ARAM a whole lot more fun as it is easier to get a champ you ENJOY playing(and I don't specifically mean a powerpick, I mean a FUN champ). Like, I reroll Fiddlesticks, Teemo, etc. a lot because I hate them... so having the ability to get rid of the champs I hate playing without using the rerolls is great. Makes me far more likely to enjoy my ARAM time.
I honestly think ti's better to just open it up to all champs but keep the rerolls and bench. That'll help a ton more by making ARAM only accounts not ruin ARAM in the first place.
Could you also post a thread crying about how dodging in ARAM is OUT OF CONTROL? It's been at least 24 hours since the last one.
I am fine with the rerolls and bench, but it is going to be broken as long as there are ARAM accounts out there. Just open all champs for ARAM and it would be more balanced.
And just to keep Jeddite happy, do something about the dodging in ARAM.
The only thing I've noticed is that I get given free rotation champs all the time now. I have a lot of unworthy ARAM champs but then it'll still give me Gragas from free rotation 3 games in a row. :P
I swear I have seen more Lux/Xerath/Zilean/Ziggs than should statistically be possible over my many ARAM games on both my team and the enemy team
At least they could add a shuffle.
I mean: if one team rolls Ziggs+Varus and the other Udyr+Evelynn, then just mix them around before showing them to the players (-> Ziggs+Udyr vs Varus+Evelynn)
This way at least the teams start out balanced.
Then just make it so rerolls will only give a champion from the same tier (or the closest one if you don't own any other champ in this tier), and there you go: the teams aren't as one-sided as before, and you can still reroll if you got a champion you don't like.
I think at least try just removing one of the two rerolls. They're a good addition to the game, but too many players just don't play aram unless they have both rerolls to guarantee a "viable" pick and it ruins the game for everyone else. See if just one reroll lowers the consistency of this enough to cut this shit out.
