Why did you remove trading for ARURF?

I am genuinely curious. I dont see any reason why this was bad.

Edit: stop commenting on this thread, it is outdated since we got a response a few hours after i made this.

It is a bug due to them having to turn the mode on without prior testing (which shows just how much stuff can break in a couple patches if it isn't constantly being maintained)

They said it most likely wont be fixed this ARURF, but it should be fixed for future ones.

^This - it was a crappy compromise to make, but we couldn't have fixed the bug in time over the weekend, and we really wanted to get something out as even the smallest stopgap for Clash not working.

Might be off topic, might I ask why dodge penalty is completely removed for ARURF as well? If this is done as an intention for players to keep dodging until they get the champ they want, then I fail to see the reason for that AR in the first place. Would save a LOT of wait time for other 9 players if we get unlimited rerolls instead.

Dude can´t you read? You literally replied to a comment chain which is about bugs appearing because they couldn´t test it prior. So no dodge penalties might be a bug as well.

I'm asking precisely because I don't believe it's a bug. If it is - it's way too serious to overlook. Only reason it's not brought to attention is because most ppl aren't aware of it, and if they are there won't be a single game starting at all, if 1 out of 10 players has the slightest dissatisfaction with the champ he/she got.

If this is intended, I fail to see the reason and I'm asking why.

If this is a bug like you said, then it's nothing like the bug with trading. Trading is just for the convenience of the players and not unplayable without that option. No dodge penalty shakes the fundamental of the game play; it gives players the option to harm many at the benefit of individual at best, and at worst harm others just because the player feels like it, and trust me, this community is notorious for hurting others just because they feel like it.

This bug - if it is - is on a completely different scale. Unlike the trading bug, It cannot exist, at least not in NA server.

I don´t get your point. If it´s a bug it cannot exist?. Well guess what it exists cause dodge penalties is a feature of this game mode as much as trading is, but both don´t work now cause they patched it without prior testing/bug fixing. And no, I don´t believe any developer at Riot would want to work at the weekend or take overtime to fix bugs. They´re still humans and have families, friends and hobbies as well.

My point is that this bug (let's assume it is indeed a bug) is too absurd to exist. I understand that they don't really have time before they draw this out as part of the compensation for those who miss out clash, and I don't expect them to. That doesn't mean they leave it as it is, they'll simply have to turn this game mode off if that's what it takes.

Like, think of it this way. If karthus R is bugged and has 0 cooldown, it doesn't make any sense to not disable this champ until it's fixed. This dodge bug is FAR worse than that. No way to deal with it as the receiving end, and anyone can do it at a much higher frequency, affecting a lot more ppl, and hurting them more.

How come ARURF broke, though? Were you working behind-the-scenes on tech that connected to the mode?

I mean this might be the perfect time for you guys to make URF permanent.

its easy to fix that just turn off ARURF.exe and then restart it as administrator*[slayer-pantheon-thumbs]*

Even if you didn't fix it, I'm okay with this release. Thanks for putting ARURF/URF on.

Also, to be clear, I almost kind of think it's fine without trading.

Actually, this release of ARURF is so totally fine with me that you guys should leave it on past Sunday night. I see no reason not to leave it on for the rest of this week, or perhaps till Wednesday.

I call complete bullshit. There's almost no way you could have ARAM's trading working but ARURF's not. And even if there was any possible way, this video ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zjo7hazREw ) completely debunks it by saying it was experimentation. I feel like this whole bug thing was just a lie to damage control all the hate riot got for this.

They totally ruined this game mode. The randomness already made too many insta-lose comps. Without being able to trade to get something decent, they should not have bothered to put this mode out.
