a SLIGHT change to ARAM...

Make it actually random.

There's no way that ARAM is actually random. There's a Fiddlesticks / Nidalee / Soraka / Lissandra / Ezreal in every single game. I can't even remember the last time I saw a Yorick / Poppy / Diana.

ARAM has the same champions over and over again, there's never any new faces. When I get Tristana THREE games in a row, something's fishy.

Rolling 20 on a 20 sided dice 10 times in a row is still random.

Yeah, because humans are known for being intuitively good with probability and statistics to ascertain randomness without any bias, kappa.

ARAM isn't really all that random, but tbh main reason why you see some picks far more often is because of ARAM smurfs. Btw getting the same champion in a row is also kinda random, it's like with lottery/lucky numbers etc

The problem with aram are aram-only accounts and the rerolls. If you get a not poke champ, you reroll it(or atleast ~90% of the players do so), which ends with pokesetups on both sides in ~80% of the games. If you play anythin besides a hard engage comb or a poke comb, you have problems as you will face a pokecomb, and with out the potential of outlaneing, splitpush or farming, if you can't keep up with the poke you need atleast malphite levels of hardengage to beat a pokecomb.

Back in the days befor rerolls, aram was way more random. You could have great games with udyr as your enemys probably had similar melees like voli on their team, and poke especially early on was reduced alot by not haveing any aditional manasustain and not enough gold to start with the likes of a tear.

Well, if the new Mark/Dash summoner spell in ARAM means anything, at least melee champs will have a shot again.

You can run all the numbers you want, they won't match from day to day

FHMarshy4/15/2015, 1:39:47 PM2 votes

lol probably cuz not a lot of people own them and they aren't on free of the week

I've seen quite a few diana and poppy

Drunk Rummate4/15/2015, 5:54:02 PM2 votes

its because assholes dodge if they dont get at least a couple of the champions you just listed on their team.

"All Random All Mid"

more like "Champ you want or dodge and play on smurf"

I get Diana all the time. I also get Yorick and I see Poppy all the time. The problem is as a human being you have a much different view of "Random" than a computer does. A computer picking a random number out of 1-100 might pick 50, 10 times in a row and that is still COMPLETELY "random". Also as humans we have a tendancy to have selective memory and forget important flaws or facts because our brain is looking for proof of our theory. Famously there is a dancing spiderman gif that looks like he dances to the beat of literally any song when in reality it's just your brain ignoring all the moves he makes that are completely out of tempo or offbeat. I've rolled Cassiopeia only 6 times so far this year but I feel like I roll her all the time becuase 2 of those were in the last 4 days.

Maybe it's because a lot more people have certain champs. The way to make it really random is if players were able to roll any champion, instead of only getting champs they own/are free

spavined4/16/2015, 12:13:09 AM1 votes

the funny part is all 3 of the champs you mentioned for not seeing i consider op while i consider the others you mentioned seeing every game as good... well except ez he is op lol

It is actually random...I think what you want here is for every player to be able to get ANY champion because ARAM will randomly pick one of the champions YOU OWN. I'd like the idea of an ARAM that could let you get a champ you never played before or have owned..hmm...better start a thread for that. Personally, I myself find it random and I have the same lucky sprees where I get one champion two or three times but I do get other champions alot and those lucky ones only happen once a week. Also: Most players don't have champs like a Yorick/Diana (I excluded poppy because I always see her) unless they had been interested in them or knew they could be benefitial. The reason you see so many of the same champ is because most players have the 450 champions and a few 1350, and even fewer of anything higher than that, and if you do see a highly priced champion, its usually because that champion is highly talked about in how well they work. Ex: I bought Kat to see if her being op was true (WHICH IT ISNT EITHER THAT OR IM JUST REALLY BAD WHICH IS PROBABLY A HIGH POSSIBILITY)

Old Man Teeto4/15/2015, 6:15:08 PM1 votes

I own every single champion.

Currently 799 wins. (Can't remember losses but probably at least 600)

I get Udyr WAY TOO OFTEN

UPfreely4/15/2015, 7:53:58 PM1 votes

it would be nice if you didnt know your champion till you entered game and it just told you like marksmen or w/e so u can choose runes/masterys

Heckin Support4/15/2015, 8:54:24 PM1 votes

I always get stuck with Diana on aram for some reason. I've tried her AP, AD, tank, assassin, you name it I've tried it on aram

I get yorick all the time in Aram, it's great I just build all defense and ult-bot our best person while mindlessly diving the backline. Dunno what you're talking about.

Not too while ago I got Diana like 6 times in a row was it? I like Diana and all, but when I play ARAM I would like it to be random.

Delphinium4/15/2015, 3:35:35 PM1 votes

I don't see how liss is good in aram...(may be i suck at liss?) but diana is op.

I got Nasus 3 times in a row on ARAM :[

You've never had to work with a full aggro, all melee team. Basically you go in constantly or you lose.

Shyvana, Hecarim, Mordekaiser....I seem to remember having a tanky support or something. Regardless, it was NOT a favorable ARAM team but we made it work by diving in on their beloved "ARAM" champions as soon as we all hit 6. Tristana can't do much when there is a fat horsey butt sitting on her face.
