Unfun fact: taking Dark Harvest on Ziggs in aram increases your chance of winning by 1,86%

From overall 66,29% win rate to 67,52% win rate. Source

Dark Harvest is balanced, it's just that it has too high synergy with Ziggs' kit.

How to make aram better:

  • Revert 7.8 minion changes
  • disable Triumph and Dark Harvest from aram
  • Give melee champions a minion execute passive 3 charges , 30 sec cooldown on Guardian's Horn.

I will make daily aram posts until Riot fixes.

How to properly word this:

Players who take Dark Harvest on Ziggs in ARAM have a higher w/r than players who take X.

Also, ARAM players suck. I find it pretty balanced that even the best ARAM players still hover around 50% w/r.

Sounds like a very balanced rune what with ziggs taking a big risk getting in auto range of other champions, Sounds like triumph would negate that "risk" healing him back to full afterwards another very balanced risk-taking rune.. I wonder why I see triumph on 7+ champions in my aram games.. [sg-lux-2]

Ziggs is mechanically intensive and has a high skill ceiling.

He is currently trash and pretty much an auto-loss due to the AP changes.

This sounds more like a sample size issue than a balance issue.

Dark Harvest has a 2.54% pick rate on Ziggs relative to the number of games played on him. Because there are so few players playing with the rune, it's hard to gauge how strong Ziggs actually is with the mastery.

Suppose we put Glacial Augment into the Ziggs picture, and it has a hypothetical 94% winrate and a .1% playrate. You can't accurately determine if the rune is overpowered or is being used by Ziggs mains who know how to play him well and could win regardless of the rune they're using. It's likely that Dark Harvest is the same deal here.
