Personally who else would agree that you get to pick out of 5 random champions instead of you just getting one random champ and a reroll ( rerolls would still exist and it would change your entire selection. But it gives us players a bit of free will as to who we get to play. Agree or disagree lemme know
It would likely be nonrandom at that point. Maybe 3 random champions? Some other games do that.
Another idea i had while pondering this was Random Draft:
Optional: each team could ban 5 champions from selection by the pool
14 (seemed like a fair number) champions are selected randomly for the draft pool
Draft proceeds as normal, with no restrictions on owned champions.
Alternatively, Balanced Random:
A teamcomp is chosen randomly, ie 1 support, 2 ADC, 1 mage, 1 fighter, or 2 support, 2 tank, one mage
Both teams get randomly selected champions that fill the required comp
Players can trade champions+roles
Reroll gives you another champion of the same role
Overall champ winrate total (or some other metric) of each team should be kept close together
Not unless Riot starts regularly balancing champs specifically for ARAM. Otherwise, increasing player control over champ picks would make champ variety decrease even further, which would make ARAM feel that much more stagnant.
