I haven't seen anyone really talking about the Aram changes
But they look pretty great.
Here's the highlights (imo) for those that want them
Permanent changes:
- Free champ pool includes the last three, so now it's usually 45 champions. Makes Aram accs significantly less effective and keeps the game more random for other low-champ accs.
- Refilling a champion puts them on "the bench", allowing everyone to trade for them. I've never even seen this suggested, it's never occured to me, but this is a great, straightforward fix. I love it.
- Champion mastery is returned to be more lenient. Awesome, it was ridiculous how hard it was to get a good score in Aram.
Event changes that could become permanent if they work:
- Hp packs scale off missing hp/Mana and create a team-agnostic redemption effect that can heal EVERYONE. I think this is really interesting, possibly fun, and a great thing to try out during the event.
- Three new items for melee champs.
There are a few more changes (that didn't especially excite me) but these look to all make playing Aram more fun. The only other thing I want is higher dodge penalties.
