Thank you, Riot, for putting rerolled champions into a bin for everyone to pick from.

Next step is giving us our teammates' bans when they pick "none".

Now that'd be something I'd like.

I fucking love this change. I play a hell of a lot of ARAM, and now there is no more of "Xayah trade?" "Sorry, I dont own thresh" rerolls xayah

Nah people still dodge... the fix is so freaking super easy tho….

Just lock in the champion for the player, so on a dodge on next sign he or she will get the same champion again. So there is no point in dodging and waiting 5 minutes as you gonna get the SAME champ again with 0 rerolls.

Your welcome Riot.

The rr pool was great. The change to health shrines has also turned out cool. From a hardcore ARAM player, these were great changes!

Now just to fix the Leaverbuster system, which still sucks, punishing innocent people whose game crashes, while doing little to effect hardcore dodgers who just use multiple accounts.

Its a great system! Also, since Riot seem to like the new mode more than URF, maybe add it to ARURF too?

Now revolutionize Summoner's Rift as properly as this was done, and maybe I'll feel compelled to play that shit again.

I love the new lethality item there, any assassin can now be Zed: go in, have 4 seconds to kill, teleport back to safety. Awesome idea.

Aram changes are positive! I also like how the heal was reworked so when you 95% hp teammate takes it then you can still heal.

The atmosphere this Aram gives is...excitting. Too excitted and thrived in battle to tilt om the first place. Also being able to change multiple champions is nice.

I get what people are saying about the bench possibly giving more of a predetermined comp and that was one of my fears as well. But at the end of the day it is still random and one team can still get the luckier comp. And I played games last night where no one RR or only one person did and no one chose the champ they ditched. So overall I see it as a positive change. You are a bit less likely to have that person raging because they got what they perceive to be a weak ARAM champ and they have no rr and no one will trade with them (even though I don't think there are any weak ARAM champs...just some champs that may not stack up well against the enemy teams comp or champs that you don't know how to play).

I found Butcher's Bridge to be a bit jarring at first because I am so used to The Howling Abyss but by the end of the night I was really loving it. Love the new heal packs and the new items and in a few instances saw them used to good effect. Saw Pyke a few times and he definitely looked fun and seemed strong but not completely OP. Don't mind the Warmog's change too much because I rarely bought it myself. I feel like there were usually better choices to make as tanks. The one downside to its loss is when playing against a team that has a champ that naturally has a Warmog's like ability built into their kit (Garen, Mundo).

I have still seen plenty of dodges. The champ rr'ed pool is nice though. Even though I burned a rr just to take the champ out of the pool because I forgot about it initially. Doesn't seem easier to get an s though..

Yeah, this new ARAM change is amazing.

Now just give us back the mog.

As an ARAM OTP who own every champion and with 8052 ARAM matches currently played, I feared any ARAM change would just make it worse (such as the introduction of Mark/Dash).

But this is actually rather excellent. Increased reroll speed, the champion bin to choose from (no longer having to worry about someone rolling without asking - which, as far as I'm concerned is a reportable offense for negative atttude), and the AOE glyphs (adding an actual strategic elemen to the mode).

Now, as soon as I learn the respawn rates, and people realize the ones who takes the glyph receives some additional healing and mana, this really could be made permanent.

And, unlike the Gangplank announcer which I muted after 2 matches, I actually like the Pyke announcer.
