Possible ARAM Changes

TL;DR ARAM games should reveal the 10 original champions and let us remove 1-2 champions from the enemy original team comp

Tbh, bans on ARAM is pretty much meaningless to me. You never know what you're going to get so why bother banning? I don't want to dive in further but I'm an advanced player who can play most champs and EVERY straight forward champ (Riven or Zoe would be the opposite). And I feel really **UPSET **when I see any champ I'd love to play on ARAM is banned before I was assigned a champ.

Such as: Sylas Urgot Pyke Kayn Pantheon Malphite MonkeyKing Nautilus Amumu Maokai Zac Illaoi Irelia Hecarim Nunu Brand Anivia Orianna Syndra Lissandra Swain Rumble Fizz Fiddlesticks Zyra Vladimir AurelionSol Ryze Malzahar Velkoz

  • Yup, I'm actually telling you that there're lots of different style champions, or in other words, good, op, or fun champs on ARAM I want to play and I hate seeing them being disabled knowing that someone has done something about it, banning it. (I don't mind Sona being banned cause I don't find playing her on ARAM satisfying.) I was banning for like 7-10 games then I realized banning on ARAM is dumb after a champ I really love was banned

So, a POSSIBLE ARAM CHANGE?

Being able to remove 1-2 champions from the opponents' roster at the beginning. Yes, you didn't hear me wrong. Why don't we just ban 1 confirmed champion from each team instead of 5-10 possible unpicked champions? I'd suggest just 1, but maybe banning 2 is not bad. Imagine if the enemy team's got wombo combo. Removing JarvanIV doesn't stop Gnar Galio 's wombo combo. You need to remove 2 of them in order to stop the wombo combo. This is actually from a won game I played a week ago. I was JarvanIV , Gnar Galio Nasus Jinx vs Corki Sivir Varus KogMaw Amumu It turns out that 1 adc is better than 4 adc's. (Jinx did the least damage on my team and I went full tank)

I assume, being able to see what champions the enemy team has got would be one of the thing that people want sometimes. Ever had a situation getting 5 melee tanks and wondering who should go tanky? It all depends on what the enemy team comp is. You'd love to be able to know what the other team looks like in that situation.

I would sincerely suggest that ARAM games should reveal the 10 original champions and let us remove 1-2 champions from the enemy original team comp in the future.

Getting into an ARAM game should look like this:

  1. Reveal all 10 champions assigned randomly for both side
  2. Having about 15-30 seconds to vote to remove 1-2 champions from the enemy team, or none (5 adc's)
  3. Immediately assign new champions to whose champion got banned and show the new team comp at the top-left and top-right
  4. 40-60 second window to trade and reroll, enemy team comp should now remain dark and as a secret 5. A final 10 seconds before the game, champion locked in, prevent trading or rerolling at this time, this will prevent troll trading right before the game (Yup, my friends and I do that)

Being able to see the 5 starter comp gives you an opportunity to think about whether you should go full ap Blitzcrank or not, or should you reroll to get a better champion. it's like playing rock, paper, scissors. Your team has rerolled 5 or more champions and open up a whole new comp that counters the opponents' original 5. Should you play it, or should the enemy team be playing another new comp that actually counters our new comp?

I believe this will give us the intensity to feel like picking a comp strategically while the game itself being fast-paced and casual. It's just an ARAM at the end. The randomness is still there and at least we've all tried... Tried to get rid of your Udyr Trundle Rammus Skarner Braum comp. Tried to beat the cancer comp Veigar Velkoz Zyra KogMaw Sona. Tried to reroll into Draven Tristana Twitch Vayne when we originally had Ashe Kindred Jhin Ezreal.

Revealing the 5 starter champions should at least give you a better view, to defend or to abuse. The Best Defense is a Good Offense.

I agree with this.
