Does Riot keep ARAM unfair because money reasons?

MorgManBasher··11 votes·2,779 views

The main reason I don't play ARAM unless forced by friends is people who make ARAM only accounts so they always get the best champs for the mode ruin it when you run into them.

It was made slightly better by getting more rerolls and picking up other peoples rolls, but it's still an unfair system that punishes you for owning more champs so people just make ARAM only accounts and get all the top broken champs.

I have fun and then I run into a 5 man premade that has ARAM only accounts that you can tell what they are by looking at their lower levels and ARAM only filled match history.

Like, why exactly don't you make it so people can get rolls for champs they don't own? Do you want people to make more accounts and to make money? Don't tell me it's unfair to make people play champs that never played before...I own every champion in the game, do you think I know how to play every champ? Hell no.

Like, I get this mode isn't ment for someone like me. I am pretty damn competitive, but it should still be fair for those looking for a fun silly game of ARAM.

They should enable all champions in ARAM.

People have been arguing this point for years. As an ARAM only player... Have an update.

Nothing like having to play Udyr while the enemy team is playing Sona Veigar Zyra KogMaw Amumu

how do they make more money by encouraging people not to buy things?

It's more about having people make a seperate account so they want to buy the champs/skins on a second account. Like how people that make smurf accounts for ranked make riot a lot of money.

Exactly, same concept. They don't even try to manage that thing, which is an issue for matchmaking and often means elo-boosting / account selling. Wonder why... :P

I own every champion in the game, do you think I know how to play every champ? Hell no.

and who bought those champs? I doubt someone hacked you an unlocked all champions.

YOU decided you need every champ, noone else did. You decided to buy champs you don't wanna play and then queued up for aram. Why would i have to play something i don't like? Something i didn't buy because i don't like it?

The people asking for this are often people who bought every champ for their ranked play and then expect aram to function around them when they play the mode once in a while. I bought champions i wanted to play, i don't have an aram account and play every single one of my games on this one. Why should i have to play something like syndra when i didn't buy syndra cuz i have no interest in the character.

go play ranked or some shit, leave aram alone. the people who play it play it because they like it, you got your mode let them have theirs.

I still think the best solution to this issue is to add a ranked ARAM queue and enable all champions there. Players who only want to play a subset of champions are able to enjoy the current queue as they have been. Meanwhile, players who are willing to undertake the more difficult task of playing with all champs are rewarded for doing so.

Limit Ranked ARAM to higher requirements (e.g. Summoner Level 45, 40 champs owned) to discourage alts. Additionally, make champ select random draft (i.e. player gets shown X champs and picks one) to reduce the RNG complaints. Bans, reroll availability, promos, and so on would also be discussed/adjusted.
