Daily Reminder that ARAM should include ALL champs...
Only it shouldn't. It really really shouldn't. If you want to know my reasoning, try playing Smite for a few days. They currently have all Gods unlocked for the weekend, and their version of ARAM (called Assault) is an awful awful mess. You know why? Because people are getting gods they have no idea how to play (and for some reason, if you trade, you also can't reroll. Or at least I couldn't). My last game in particular had two players go a combined 2/17/9. Add in the other three records and we went 14/35/23. Granted, that was partially because we were a squishy without the best poke (against a team with poke), but we still could have done better than what we did. We had someone literally quit trying less than three minutes in. He just went on this massive rant in the chat (before I muted him) that said how "we should just give up because NONE OF US KNOW HOW TO PLAY OUR CHAMPIONS!"
I know I've seen people complain about "ARAM Mains" who only buy characters with poke, or healing, or whatever else is currently considered broken on ARAM. That's still a small minority. And opening up the queue to all champs will just make that "OH MY GOD! THEY LOCKED IN A BRAND NEW CHAMP IN RANKED ON THE DAY OF IT'S RELEASE!" feeling happen, only it's because the ARAM casuals who only buy whoever they feel like at the moment or whoever they enjoy playing on free week will now be stuck trying to figure out the of Jhin is AP or AD. Champions on free week are bad enough, and you want to make it worse?
