Open Letter to Riot... for the love of God, DON'T REWORK ARAM!

Looking at the PBE changes...

I mean.. yes, I know these are tentative but that also means Riot is really are thinking about it... AND YOU GUYS AT RIOT DON'T SEEM TO REALIZE HOW HUGE THESE CHANGES ARE... and they are coming out OF %&$#ing NO WHERE..

~20 items removed willy-nilly without realizing how they're even used in ARAM (Face of the Mountain minion execute helps waveclear if you have mostly tank team... still kinda tough against mostly poke teams). Clarity changes. Oracle's changes because they're removing Hextech/Arcane Sweeper and Lightbringer.

You realize ARAM is League's goddamn savior currently? Touch on SR as much as you want. Personally, I don't care about the solo queue stuff people keep complaining and making "League is dying" stories about. ARAM is just fun. But it's sacrosanct in the eyes of many. changes like this with no warning (we have to see it first in a PBE blog, for goodness sake) NOR any sort of conversation with the community is just uncalled for. It's just too much at once and I fear you underestimate the shift these changes can cause.

And it's not just me. Let me be clear. Even ARAMers are on your case now.

The people who usually are just content to keep chugging through champ balance updates and item changes and reworks. I beg of you, stop thinking you guys know better than the community. There were no complaints. No need to fix what isn't broken.

Well, there were some complaints. Mostly around not having an AP vision item, the existence of Mark/Dash, and available champion pool. They "fixed" two of those things by removing the rest of the vision items and reducing summoner spell cooldown (including Mark/Dash). So basically the opposite of what the complaints were.
