Please rebalance aram a little

I mainly play and have played aram for over 4 years and i see some "issiuse" popping up alot in my games that in my opinion can be fixed semi-easly. This is opinionated for different skill levels but i feel like my skill rating is in the middle of the player base. Since I played aram from the days of the old non snowing map. When it wasnt played in the Howling Abyss.

Issue 1: This is kinda optional and mainly cause its All Random but sometimes pick's make some matches onesided with one team getting more "tear one aram pick's" then the other.

Salution: Can we adapt some champion tears to aram so that one team doesnt get something like Ezreal, Lux, Ziggs, Karma, Sona, Tresh, Kench etc and the other team has mainly squishy melee champions that don't benefit alot from going tanky and can't survive any early engage. Lets say a team can be formed with 2 tear one champs 1 or 2 tear two and 1 or 2 (best jsut 1 Imo) tear three champions. -Tear One champions are Ezreal, Lux ,Blitz ,Alistar ,Tresh ,Fiddle ,Varus, Sona, Zilean and etc.. "ranged with heavy cc, hooks ,supper pokers ,beast engagers ,supper late game ,Cd ressets and etc.." I dont have any graph of winters and such but i'm sure that riot can/are tracking it. -Tear Two are "Tanky brusers ,the rest of good supports, adc's and mages ,Champs with ok engage (Safe picks)" Things like Maokai, Annie, Braum, Malphite, Gragas ,Lulu ,Nami ,Tristana ,Caitlyn etc.. -Tear Three "Unsafe picks, Heros that have a specific role that cant be used in aram at all, squishy mele champions that cant engage without getin kill'd or get close to the minion wave to farm alil so they end the game with 10 creeps and such, the low end of the assassins and etc.." Ivren, Bard ,Udyre ,Aatrox ,Kindred and etc..

Issue 2 Gold distribution and creep score.

At the end of every game i see that the mele champions with bad clear have significantly less gold then lets say adc's and mages with good wave clear. It just doesn't feel right knowing that some random mele hero cant reach the creeps without suffering alot of damage from the lack of rage attack or abilitys with wave clear. The 5 gold when a creep die's next to you feels alil. I miss the gold income items in aram i feel they got removed cause "Frostfang" was to good to get on the ranged mage champs. Before they got removed i aways got Targon's Brace(the old version wtih the shield activ) and it helped melee champions alot with gold and creep score, i miss it greatly. Nomad's Medallion(the old version that didn't drop coin's) saw some use with supports i can't say i miss alot but it felt good for disengagements.

Issue 3 Here i will list some minor issues with no personal solution.

In the old aram game lasted longer and players had alot more items now most of the games are at wost 10-15 min and at best 20-25 with rare cases of 30min+ games. But it still feels like in most games even the once i'm pooping off it ends with me having 3 items and boots. Every time an item or a rune is rebalanced for summoner rift or added to it, it needs to be looked at Aram's prespectiv. Some runes are busted on aram and other feels untakable. Lack of aram only items or and underwhelming aram only early game items. Guardians Hammer is the only exception Since the life steal it gives is felt alot as the game does on. Guardians Horn is good for the 1st 4 min of the game then its nothing more then 150 hp. And the Guardians ord is imo the most useless item you can buy in aram, its fine that it gives ap and hp but the mana regen is so little its bearly felt on mages that want to cast yet i see player buy it and go oom b4 level 4 its much much better to just start going for a mana ap 20% crd item as a starter yet its an early game item. Aram can use some items with a unseen combination of stats something like attack speed and HP or Armor and Attack damage.

Issue 4 Some runes are extremely potent and others do nothing.

N1 Problem is Dark harvest giving insane damage and stacking easily on enemy and teammates deaths, procking non stop and being executed easily it just snowballs to much on tanks and ranged carries like caitlyn ezreal

And the useless once feel like Glacial Augment, Unsealed Spellbook and Zombie Ward. seening less to no use in aram.

Issue 5

And finaly my biggest problem with aram is that its categorised as "fun only mod" and it's been taken very lightly from both some player, the community guidelines, and league staff. I dont think it will hurt to open a rank aram mod even in its state now if nothing less then just as a test. I see to many players Afking with no option to /remake and no punishment following. To many players flame int and throw, all 3 at the same time. then after x8 or x9 report i see them still playing other games without the slightest punishment. To many players Not trying their hardest or at all, and then hitting you with the "its just aram" when you're trying your best. I know Fun differs from player or player but whats more fun than playing a teams game as a team for the team and for the Win. I know that aram started as a fun mode for player to play with difrent champions (that they dont own or have masterd sometimes) Its the part that makes it all random but atm i feel like its suffering from its randomness more then before.

I feel that the rules have to be reinforced equally between all game modes but it just doesn't feel that way for Aram and the Rotating Game Modes.

Non the less aram is a 5 v 5 mod from start to finish and i know some players dont expect that at all and don't recodines how easy it is to get killed in a early 5 v 5 cenario and i've accepted that fact, aswell as constatly trying to grup up the team when someone gets picked off.(no problems with that, thats just noraml league at most i guess)

These are my problems with aram i have lil to no hope that they might be enforced or anything but i just believe that the aram mod can be more than it is at the moment.

Thanks for reading and best regards Some random aram palyer.

Veigar is tier 1 for sure.

He has been ever since they reworked his passive to stack off of doing anything short of alt tabbing into pornhub
