Tanks and Warmog's Armor in ARAM

supermonkeyyyyyy··2 votes·581 views

There is no use of any poke champions, with warmogs they just heal it to full health in seconds, it's ridiculous. Nowdays a team of more than 3 Tanks can just brute force through the enemy team or if they find they are getting low just go back and sit for a while then voilá full health again. This is extreamely frustrating to play against. Whether the team wins or loses is now purely based on how many tanks there are in a team.

True, but arguably there are better ways of handling the poke than just an uninteractive sustain. One of the better ways they have helped this is with snowball, which gave much needed assistance in terms of team engage.

Snowball actually didn't help much against poke. The weakest champs on ARAM typically don't have issues engaging. Furthermore, poke is/was most abusive in the early-game, when you generally don't have the raw stats to successfully engage anyway.

I find it's generally not much of a problem. Warmog's only has that insane regen if you have 3000 HP, which means it does nothing if you attempt to rush it first item. By the time you've put together enough HP and bought a Warmogs, the game has most likely moved on from the "poke/sustain" early phase to the "constant teamfighting" later phase.

Unless your team comp has absolutely no initiation (which considering summoner 32 exists is going to be uncommon) then poke isn't going to be hugely important after a certain time in the match. It just so happens to be that that certain point often is around the same time when you can complete a Warmogs.

Now the Warmogs before the current one, back where it gave you less regen but didn't require 3000 HP to trigger, made a lot of tanks immune to poke at the 5 minute mark. It's much better now than it used to be.

Well ARAM is random after all.
