The Aram Tier 2 Tower Problem

CaptainAntiHeroz·Sep 24, 2019·5 votes·3,226 views

How often do you have your team get wiped and your first tower fall, and then they just take your second tower too in the same push? Like I'd say 7/10 times if they get the first tower because your teams dead they'll get you second tower too.

I feel like they really need to add a mechanic that when the first tower falls the second tower gets tower plating for like 3-5 minutes so it isn't a total wipe, but also isn't super duper long guaranteed. Aram should be fast paced for the most part but it also has a problem of being a total wash just because of one bad fight and that's super unfun.

Also would love for Aram bans to come back because should never be seen on a one lane map where she can go the entire game without dying and you can't kill her at all because she has 4 teammates to jump to but thats a story for another day.

SO thoughts, Aram players?

I'd love more updates to ARAM but I don't agree with this one. The gamemode is made to be a much shorter, more casual alternative to Summoner's Rift. Adding plating mechanics to towers is just going to extend the length of the gamemode when most people (Myself included) play ARAM in times when I know I don't have a whole lot of time for a normal Summoner's Rift game.

Also I agree, Fuck Yummi. :)

You are on a good track to add onto ARAM by saying, "blacklist yummi from the choices" although I too would have to disagree with making the 2nd turret more robust. I believe that maybe removing the first turret and adding it onto the second turret, I.E. there being only 1 but it being a much more powerful (higher HP and faster at attacking) turret to begin with, could possibly be the greater of both worlds. Afterall, the 2nd turret is basically free gold, too squishy and takes up unnecessary time for both parties. If anything, the map being shortened for such a turret change would most likely benefit the time span played between each game.
