ARAM - Riot Please

Can you please add in some balance to this mode? A majority of the games are 1-sided due to the composition of each team. I appreciate we can reroll bad champs but would like to see some balancing among the role makeup of the teams. You already have roles assigned to the champs so part of the work is done. 1 Mage, 1 Support, 1 Tank, 1 ADC and for the last you could do a wildcard.

You should also consider /remake or surrender at 5 minutes an option. There is no benefit to forcing people to stay in slaughters. It makes people bitter, not better.

They should take the All Random out of ARAM

I don't believe that would help. When they've had the snowball events with draft, it still became a CC poke fest. It really is a disservice and creates negative experiences to have so many tilted games offered up.

Yeah, but then both teams would be cancerous instead of just one

I think its a problem of the rerolls not being usable to affect team composition.

Right now rerolls only real use is holding on to them for as long as you can until you get a champion you don't like to play with. The problem is that it takes multiple games to even get a single reroll chance and you usually use them in bursts, leaving you with nothing for a long time.

If instead we simply always had two rerolls every match they could be properly used for their intended purpose, fixing crappy team comps.

Forcing roles on people brings different problems. Can you still reroll champions out of your role? Can I trade roles with someone whose champion I don't have? What if I only have 1 champion that belongs in my role, what use is rerolling here? Are there more then 5 roles? What if you get the poor roles and the enemy gets the good ones? Can I reroll my role? Can the wildcard get any champion?

And even with roles the champions you get can still suck or you can still end up with a non-functional team composition or without any synergy between champions. It does not fix the problem.

Adding rerolls only helps each side obtain a overpowered composition. Making it easier to roll compositions that are have an endless supply of hard cc or poke exacerbate the problem. I've had numerous games where an op comp of 4 has bested a team of 5, just by their champion selection.

By taking away the 3 lanes, it takes away the need for a varied team and Riot hasn't addressed that. They need some way to make this map fun again.

Overpowered compositions have more to do with people's champion pools then the ability to reroll.

An endless supply of rerolls isn't gonna give you champions with cc if they aren't part of your champion pool in the first place. All rerolls do is give you another chance at a different champion.

It's not gonna give more power to the people that only have great aram champions, but it will help people with worse off champion pools get rid of some of the bad luck.
