Request to remove 'Mark" from ARAM

any champions that required skill or risk to get a fast kill face little to no danger now. any burst champ can easily jump into the middle of the team and kill whoever they wish especially if they have more than 1 of these champs

Aww, another player who is mad now that they can't just sit in the back as Lux Ezreal Caitlyn and end the game 25/3 and tell people who rolledSkarner Trundle that they need to go back to bots.

Mark dash makes ARAM much more unique and dynamic as a game mode and was a fan favorite feature from the snowdown event, get comfortable because it isn't going anywhere.

QQ more please, your tears nourish me. I find this post hilarious.

I think that mark is a little too overpowered. Granted it does make some champions more viable, but at the same time constantly opening new windows of opportunity takes the fun out of the game. I've seen champs like skarner or trundle literally wait 20-30 minutes for the perfect pick, and I've seen comps with nidalee, ziggs, and sivir just poke people down until they win, but saying "nid is op in aram snowball helps me fight her" means you don't understand how to play against her in the first place. It shows that you're a weak player and you need the snowball as a crutch to do what you need to do in order to win. I've played against poke comps as Nunu and had my ass to the nexus and came out on top after finally realizing that my ult is better as a zoning mechanism than as damage for example. Not everything is about getting in and killing.

I'm not saying it isn't fun to be able to chuck a snowball at poke comps and see results in my team's favor. I'm not saying that using snowballs is any less strategic than using flash per se- but I don't think mark/dash should be a lasting part of this game mode, else people will forget to actually play to and with their champion and their team's strengths.

if you play ARAM long enough, you'd know once you get into the mid/late game, a team with 2 or 3 tanks/off tanks beats a poke team easily.

so a good ARAM account would actually have a bunch of tank/off tank champs instead of just squishies ranged champs. They don't really need the extra engage every 20 secs. That is just broken.

And the reason why people prefer ranged/poke champs is because it's more fun, not because they are OP or anything.

If Mark must be kept, give it the same cool down as Flash.

Team mate gets hit long range from a Galio snowball? Guess Galio earned the right to instantly murder our entire team with his ult from straight up michael jordan spacejam dunk range with absolutely no possibility of counter attack. Seems legit. In fact almost any champion that can do rapid burst damage to multiple targets and even more annoying, the instant button press AOE cc spell champions are near impossible to deal with. This is the worst thing that has ever been added to League of Legends. No longer can i practice champions i enjoy in a one lane, purely teamfighting experience. Instead the snowball has been brought to the ARAM map, turning what was a legitimate game mode into something more akin to Urf Mode. Sure its fun for a couple matches but its clear that the game mode has been overrun by what is essentially just a plain and simple gimmick. In fact i havent seen a gimmick this bad since the Xbox 360s Kinect.

Yeah mark is terrible, it ruined aram as we know it. Leave mark in snowball showdown and give us back aram.

probably the worst thing riot ever made so far ... it seriously changed the whoooole poking concept ... remove it before people forget how to play without it

No. ARAM made ultra ranged champions op. Now they can get caught by otherwise "useless" ARAm champions that rely on get close to their victims. That's why Poro King was awesome.

No skill or risk? Like the poke champs people w/ a dedicated ARAM account roll every game?

I'm LOVING the new change as people like me who roll nunu can actually do something in an ARAM, but I bet it makes the people with ARAM accounts a bit sad that their crutch is getting weakened.
