Arurf still sucks.

ThèRedBaron·9/26/2019, 7:01:19 PM·42 votes·15,557 views

Yet another iteration of urf on the P.B.E. that is completely random. Not only failing to decrease the availability of broken champs in the hands of your opponents but making it more likely that you get something bad and can't deal with it as well. Also, if its gonna be random, why no bans? seriously?

Yet again another company making a "you think you do but you don't" type comment when we bring up these issues because we apparently don't like regular urf and it makes us quit the game. (The people who actually quit because regular urf frustrates them are in fact ego gamers and shouldn't be taken into account.

Give us regular urf, or for all that is holy and good in this universe, GIVE US BANS.

ARURF sucks sure but it's better than regular URF. At least with AR the game doesn't devolved into picking the same 10 champs every game.

URF can't make players quit the game if Rito makes it so shit nobody wants to play it in the first place.

obviously its because rito thinks randomness is better.....

WHAT WILL THEY BE PLAYING? All-Star 1v1 Tournament TFT Tournament 5v5 Summoner’s Rift Show Matches URF mode (original blind pick, not ARURF) Tandem mode

oh wait, we don't want randomness affecting our pro players, we are gonna give them regular urf. totally not catering to the pros.

great riot logic: have the pro players adapt? no adapt to the pro players? yes insert drake meme

nice being called a ''ego gamer'' for not liking regular urf because it was the same 16 champions every game, original urf was boring as all hell, it was the same 16 champions every single game.

Last time I checked ARURF isn't even that random, you see the same few champs every match or so

They can keep the normal random but I can't stomach the bs drake which is pretty much autowin and the catapult.

Yes, everyone took tp before, but at least after let's say you want to do drake and killed everyone, they couldnt tp immediately back to the pit because it has a 60 second cd, now it's a shit fest with the catapult die>launch>die again>launch back to the pit.

I must be the only one who remembers that the original URF sucked because everybody just picked Sona, Ryze, or other champions that were stupid broken.

Quite frankly I don't even get why people love URF so damn much. It's fun for like, 3 to 6 games for the amusement factor of how strong your champion gets, and then it gets boring really fast.

compared to the experience of the very first URF, yes. it does suck. compared to SR norms and ARAM, no. it's far, far more fun

SR's only purpose is ranked. any RGM is better than SR norms.

I really want back normal urf. I want to play the champs that I like. Not what the game wants me to play. It also feels like I am always getting put up against the same stuff anyways. Just give us normal urf.

Regular urf has literally the same champions every match.

All you have to do is remove elder dragon buff and everything’s fair

Cronofuge9/27/2019, 1:02:03 AM2 votes

How did they make it that only your opponents get the broken stuff but you still have a chance of getting bad champs? I don't quite understand that part of this post.

Dr Poro9/27/2019, 12:02:13 AM2 votes

ARURF is way more replayable than URF, where you see at least 4 players picking the top 15-20 champs every game. Perhaps with their new approach to balancing which is way more effective, they could try a regular URF revamp, though. If winrate differences aren't that high, I wouldn't oppose it.

Bans would be necessary in regular URF but have too little value in ARURF compared to the waiting time increase. Ultra rapid fire is all about fast action, not long champion select. A ban system where you could choose up to 3 bans BEFORE you queue could be nice but probably requires too much effort to implement.

What I would LOVE the most is to have regular URF in custom games.

All they have to do is give us both options and let us choose. BUT they are not going to because you guys are not buying enough skins. Buy more skins and maybe they will listen [sg-ezreal]

Hilariously, it's still better than all of the other game types.

ThisName1sDumb9/27/2019, 3:17:24 AM1 votes

Just balance all champs around URF. Like, in all gamemodes, don't just balance them for URF.

DoranShieldOp9/27/2019, 3:21:04 AM1 votes

why don't you argue the same shit for aram tho

Saezio9/27/2019, 4:40:38 AM1 votes

The only way normal urf would get back would be if it only allowed you to pick the same champ once every 5-7 games or something.

Or ban the 20 worst offenders. I remember first time urf was out you could play eve/jax/fizz/zed/xin/mao and 1v9 easily

A lot of people are putting their input on ARURF on the PBE forums. There are tons and tons of posts with screenshots showing how toxic PBE games are and nothing gets done. There are tons of videos showing how OP dragon is and how it's pretty much an auto win if you get it. There are tons of screenshots showing how the only builds that matter are 4 IES, Bloodthirster & Boots. There are tons of screenshots showing how it's impossible to kill Vladimir.

Has anything been done with all the people complaining about ARURF? No, not a single thing.

They've never said this. In fact they said the complete opposite of this.

The probability of getting some champions is high while for others is low. Thus, year after year i'm constantly getting Xerath which will make your life miserable even under turret from lvl 1 until we end the game.

Not fair tho.

FSRER9/27/2019, 9:53:10 AM1 votes

ARURF would be way more fun if they actually knew how to balance the champions. Last time I checked at PBE, veigar was sitting doing no reduced damage nor taking more damage, so was zyra, so was ziggs etc.

When does it come out! Some of us arent honored enough to get pbr

RekSai CoffeeCo9/27/2019, 12:18:54 PM1 votes

Did anyone actually think they would put in URF when they could put in ARURF and sell golden spatulas? They can't even add a RGM anymore without showing GREED.

steven45474669/28/2019, 1:59:53 AM1 votes

Bans or regular urf pls. Or just regular urf, that's fine
