My in-deep suggestion on how to improve and revolutionize the ARAM experience

1- All random. ALL random. 2- Every player gets assigned 1 of the 6 roles at random and one random champion of said role. these being: One Mage. One Marksman. One Support. One Tank. And the last, one Fighter or Assassin 3- Same role can't be assigned to two different players in the same team. 4- A re-roll picks a champion from the role previously assigned to the player. Fighter/Assassin player has a pool of Champions from both roles 5- When players, trade Champions, they are also trading the role. Further re-rolls after a trade will pick a champion of the traded role only.

I think we can all agree number one NEEDS to be implemented. Aside from that everything else i cannot agree with. Especially since it basically nulls your first point because how its just basically giving you a random champion from the pool of their roles!

What do you mean with your first point? What does "All random. ALL random." mean?

Why are you biased against Fighters and Assasins? If you lob these two roles into a single slot then these roles will only see a 50% play rate verses the 100% play rate of the other roles. Which really sucks for people that like playing champions that belong to those roles.

By forcing people into a role you limit the possible matches the system can make which increases que times. For example, a player without support champions cannot be assigned the support role, you'll be adding the problems ranked ques are experiencing into aram (low number of players play support). I don't expect it to get as bad as in ranked (because this is more about owning a support champion rather then queing up as one) but it's still something to keep in mind. The problem might be solved with the free rotation always having champions available for every role but this will lead to a greater number of free rotation champions showing up in games leading to far less diverse matches.

Somebody else happened to make a simular topic, I also responded to him with other reasons why this would be a bad idea. Here's a link if you care to read it: https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/l84wz1rG-aram-shouldnt-be-completely-random-let-me-explain

So you want to make ARAM even less random than it is now.
